Where does this Alaska business formation data come from?

Official Alaska business registry records published by the Alaska Department of Commerce, Community and Economic Development, Division of Corporations, collected daily by AlphaLeads and refreshed weekly on this page. Nothing here is modeled, sampled or estimated. A month is published only once Alaska has finished publishing it, so a slow state feed is never shown as a fall in business formation.

Want the underlying records, not the totals?

The daily feed is every one of these filings as a CSV, 24 to 72 hours after it hits the registry, with the business name, owner or agent where published, mailing address, entity type and industry classification. Pro adds a verified company website, email and phone where one exists.
