Beauhurst is an enterprise-priced data product. It publishes no commercial price list of its own, but its G-Cloud 14 listing, a public UK government procurement catalogue, shows BeauhurstImpact at £24,500 per year for up to 5 users, £63,000 per year for up to 20 users and £242,500 per year for up to 500 users, on 12-month minimum terms. There is no free trial.
We do not describe Beauhurst's product in detail here, because that is better done by Beauhurst. What we can say is that these are licence prices for organisations, not a self-serve subscription for a two-person team. If you are a university, a funder or a large professional services firm with a budget for that, the comparison with NewcoSignal is not close.
NewcoSignal is built for the buyer at the opposite end of the scale. The free plan has unlimited company search and profiles and one saved search with a daily email of the top 5 new matches. Every new account gets a 14-day Pro trial with no card. Pro at £39 per month + VAT, or £348 a year + VAT, delivers every match (up to 625 new companies a week) with 10 saved searches, CSV and Excel export, Zapier, webhooks, Slack and Teams. Business at £99 per month + VAT adds unlimited searches and leads, native CRM sync for HubSpot, Pipedrive, Zoho, Capsule and Dynamics 365, and an API.
For new companies we give you the registered address (around 99.98%) and a named director (around 99%), with formation-agent addresses and likely shells filtered out and a reachable-by-post filter. Instant alerts are hourly delivery of daily Companies House data, not real time.
If you are evaluating enterprise data tools and your real need is a steady supply of new UK company leads by sector and place, it may be worth starting with the free plan to see whether that is enough before you commit to a 12-month licence.
