Help & Guide

Learn how to get the most out of Planet Intelligence.

1. Company Intelligence

Generate a full financial intelligence report for any UK company using data filed at Companies House.

How to use
  1. Go to Intelligence in the top navigation bar.
  2. Enter a company name or company number in the search box.
  3. Select the company from the results.
  4. A full report is generated automatically, covering financial data extracted from filed accounts.
What you get
  • Key financial figures extracted from XBRL filings (turnover, profit/loss, net assets, liabilities, etc.).
  • Year-on-year comparisons across multiple filing periods (depending on your plan).
  • Company status, type, registered address, and incorporation date.
  • Officer and director listings.
Tip: The number of analyses you can run per month and how many years of filing history are included depend on your subscription tier. Check your Dashboard to see your current usage.

3. Tracked Companies

Keep a watchlist of companies you want to monitor. When you analyse a company, it is automatically added to your tracked list. Tracked companies are periodically refreshed so your data stays up to date.

How to use
  1. Go to Companies in the top navigation bar to view your watchlist.
  2. Companies are added automatically when you run an intelligence report.
  3. You can also manually track or untrack companies from the list.
What you get
  • A centralised list of all companies you are monitoring.
  • Automatic daily data refresh — new filings are picked up overnight.
  • Quick access to re-run analysis on any tracked company.
Tip: The number of companies you can track is limited by your subscription tier. If you reach the limit, you can remove companies you no longer need or upgrade your plan.

4. AI-Powered Insights

Get AI-generated commentary on a company's financial health, including solvency analysis, risk indicators, trends, and going concern signals — all derived from filed accounts.

How it works
  • When you run a company intelligence report, AI interpretation is automatically included if your plan supports it.
  • The AI analyses extracted financial data and produces a plain-English summary highlighting key concerns and observations.
  • Deep Insights mode (available on higher tiers) provides more detailed analysis including ratio calculations and sector comparisons.
Note: AI interpretation and Deep Insights require a paid subscription. The Free tier does not include AI features.

5. HMRC Risk Alerts

Companies and directors are automatically cross-referenced against official HMRC lists to flag potential tax and compliance risks.

What is checked
  • Deliberate Tax Defaulters — individuals and companies published by HMRC for deliberate tax non-compliance.
  • Named Tax Avoidance Schemes — promoters, enablers, and suppliers of schemes HMRC has identified.
How it works
  • HMRC data is refreshed automatically on a weekly schedule.
  • When you view a company or director report, any matches against these lists are highlighted with a risk alert.
  • HMRC risk alerts are available on all subscription tiers.
