Query the German Commercial Register with AI Agents

The Handelsregister is the official record of every German company — legal name, address, registration court, managing directors, Prokuristen, and shareholders. Through the handelsregister.ai REST API, AnythingMCP exposes this data to your AI agent so you can run KYC checks, supplier due-diligence, or sales-prospect enrichment with a single prompt.

Quick Setup with Built-in Adapter

AnythingMCP includes a pre-configured Handelsregister adapter. You only need an API key.

Step 1: Deploy AnythingMCP

git clone https://github.com/HelpCode-ai/anythingmcp.git
cd anythingmcp && docker compose up -d

Step 2: Get Your API Key

Sign up at handelsregister.ai and generate a personal API key.

Step 3: Import the Adapter

In the AnythingMCP dashboard at http://localhost:3000/connectors/store, click Import on Handelsregister. Paste your API key into the HANDELSREGISTER_API_KEY field — the form opens automatically when the adapter requires credentials.

Step 4: Connect to Your AI Agent

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "handelsregister": {
      "url": "http://localhost:4000/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Pricing Notes

handelsregister.ai bills per detailed lookup. Searches are typically free; full-record fetches and document downloads consume credits. Set spending limits in your account to avoid surprises.
