# Comparisons

Six comparisons with dated, sourced facts. Each starts with what the other service does better than us, and two of them recommend not choosing us.

- [Sirenic or Pappers: which one for which need](https://api.sirenic.eu/en/compare/sirenic-or-pappers-credits-versus-pay-per-call-compared) — Surveyed on a paid Pappers account: credit cost per field, whether scoring is recomputed, PEP coverage. Dated facts, sources cited.
- [Sirenic or Societe.com](https://api.sirenic.eu/en/compare/sirenic-or-societe-com-public-pricing-versus-quotation) — Their API is quotation-based, IP-restricted, capped at 60 requests per minute. Ours is publicly priced and callable without an account.
- [Sirenic or Infogreffe](https://api.sirenic.eu/en/compare/sirenic-or-infogreffe-we-do-not-issue-kbis-extracts) — Regulated prices surveyed 2026-08-19: Kbis €3.06, annual accounts €9.08, statement of charges up to €62.88. What the court registry does and we never will.
- [Sirenic or API Entreprise (DINUM)](https://api.sirenic.eu/en/compare/sirenic-or-api-entreprise-if-you-are-public-body) — API Entreprise is reserved for public bodies, free, and grants access to certificates the private sector cannot obtain.
- [Sirenic or the INPI register directly](https://api.sirenic.eu/en/compare/sirenic-or-inpi-directly-source-is-free-ingesting) — French national register data is free over API and SFTP, with an account. This comparison honestly says when you should ingest it yourself rather than pay us.
- [Sirenic or the free company-search API](https://api.sirenic.eu/en/compare/sirenic-or-free-french-company-search-api) — Free, key-less, 52 search criteria, 7 requests per second. To find a company number, pay nothing. Here is exactly where it stops, measured on a real call.
