Dun & Bradstreet (D&B) provides a service that takes an email address as input and returns detailed information about the associated company. This includes the D-U-N-S® Number (a unique business identifier), company name, address, and phone number.

If the request body also includes a company name and address, D&B performs a data validation and matching process, comparing the submitted information against its records. The service then returns a match evaluation, indicating how closely the provided data aligns with D&B’s authoritative company data.
