Real-time entity verification at scale
Automate entity lookups, exclusion checks, set-aside verification, and registration monitoring. Build compliance into your workflow, not around it.
The problem
Sound familiar? These are the challenges we hear from teams like yours.
Manual verification doesn't scale
Checking entity registration status, certifications, and exclusions one-by-one in SAM.gov is a bottleneck. You need real-time, programmatic verification.
Set-aside compliance is high stakes
Misrepresenting small business status or failing to verify subcontractor certifications can result in False Claims Act liability. The data has to be current.
Monitoring changes is reactive
Entity registrations expire, certifications change, exclusions get added. You find out after the fact instead of being proactively alerted.
How GovData Labs helps
Purpose-built API endpoints that solve these problems out of the box.
Registration verification
Real-time entity lookups with registration status, expiration dates, CAGE codes, and UEI validation. Verify any entity instantly.
Certification validation
Query entities by certification type — 8(a), HUBZone, SDVOSB, WOSB. Verify set-aside eligibility before it becomes a compliance issue.
Portfolio monitoring
Fetch up to 500 entities in a single request. Monitor your entire subcontractor portfolio for registration lapses or certification changes.

Verify subcontractor compliance
# Verify a subcontractor's registration and certifications
entity = requests.get(
"https://api.govdatalabs.com/api/v2/data/entities/JKLM456N7890",
headers={"X-API-Key": API_KEY}
).json()
# Check registration status
is_active = entity["registration_status"] == "Active"
expires_soon = entity["expiration_date"] < "2025-06-01"
# Verify small business certification
certs = entity["certifications"]
is_small = certs["small_business"]
is_8a = certs["8a"]
print(f"Active: {is_active}")
print(f"Expires soon: {expires_soon}")
print(f"Small business: {is_small}")
print(f"8(a) certified: {is_8a}")Automate your compliance checks
