Free Kauppalehti alternative - Datreal
Datreal is the free pan-Baltic + Finland alternative to Kauppalehti / Alma Insights. Same Finnish Trade Register basics plus LV, LT and EE in one search - no paywall on financials, no per-document fees, plus a key-less public API and MCP server. Kauppalehti still wins on editorial authority, payment-default depth and the pan-Nordic Alma Insights relaunch.
Why Datreal vs Kauppalehti
No paywall on financials
Full company profile, multi-year financials and beneficial owners - all free, no signup. Kauppalehti's deeper financial reports and Trade Register documents are paid.
Multi-Baltic + Finland in one search
LV + LT + EE + FI companies and people in a single search and a single API. Kauppalehti and Alma Insights focus on FI (with a SE/NO/DK Nordic relaunch in progress through 2026).
Cross-border person de-duplication
Search a person once and Datreal resolves their roles across all four jurisdictions, including cross-border UBO chains.
Free public API
No API key, 30-minute caching, CORS-enabled. Alma Insights offers an enterprise API as part of its paid tier.
AI-native (MCP server)
Add Datreal as a tool to Claude Desktop or ChatGPT in one command. Kauppalehti / Alma Insights does not ship MCP.
No per-document download fees
Datreal's profile is fully free; Kauppalehti charges per Trade Register document. We don't match Kauppalehti's editorial coverage or payment-default depth - those are its real wedges.
