KnowFirst

Business and contact intelligence for Australia and New Zealand

Visit KnowFirst

KnowFirst is a business and contact intelligence platform covering Australia and New Zealand. It brings together information from public records and the open web into searchable business and people profiles, helping users research markets, identify decision makers and track recent changes to organisations they care about. Searching and browsing are free, while credits are spent on paid actions such as unlocking contact details, exporting records and making API requests.

The platform includes detailed business profiles grouped into views covering locations, people, jobs and salaries, technology, marketing, reputation and contracts, alongside a live business feed of recent signals such as website updates, news mentions and hiring activity. Users can filter searches by industry, location and business size, save lists and searches, and export data as CSV or JSONL. A REST API provides programmatic access to the same data, and integrations are available for CRMs and other workflows.

KnowFirst is aimed at sales, marketing, recruitment and market research teams, as well as developers building data into their own products. It is packaged with a free plan that includes starter credits, paid plans with monthly credit allowances at different rates, top-up options, and an Enterprise tier for larger workflows.
