Could you build this?
Partial The developer API interface and billing are simple to build, but aggregating reliable direct integrations or scrapers across official corporate registries (commercial registries, tax authorities) for seven Middle Eastern countries requires significant country-specific data sourcing and maintenance.
What it would actually take: The architecture would consist of an API gateway (e.g., Fastify/Go), API key management with Stripe/LemonSqueezy, and a distributed scraping/connector worker pool. The difficult part is reverse-engineering or obtaining official API access to government trade and tax registries across Saudi Arabia (ZATCA/Wathq), UAE (NER/CBUAE), Qatar, Kuwait, Bahrain, Oman, and Lebanon, where data formats, CAPTCHAs, and legal access barriers vary wildly. It requires establishing local proxy networks and maintenance scripts to adapt to frequent government portal changes.
