Cost early warnings for UK small businesses.
Tell Atri what you buy and who you buy it from. It watches news, regulators and price benchmarks across the UK, US and India, traces each effect inward — from a world event to the suppliers, customers and costs you depend on — and warns you early, with the reason and one thing to check.

How one filing reaches a business.
An illustrative example, not a real company: a Gazette notice traced two steps inward, to a firm that buys PA66 from one supplier.
One warning, fully explained.
Every warning has the same five parts, strongest evidence first. Tap any badge for Says Who? — the source, the kind of evidence, and a link to the original record. A badge never looks more certain than its evidence.
“…the directors of Meridian Polymers Ltd (company no. 00000000) give notice of their intention to appoint administrators pursuant to paragraph 26 of Schedule B1 to the Insolvency Act 1986.”
A notice of intention to appoint administrators for Meridian Polymers Ltd was published in The London Gazette on 16 Jun.
Meridian is your sole source for PA66 (HS 3908.10). Roughly 38% of Q3 builds depend on this input.
Check how many weeks of PA66 you hold · line up a second supplier · ask the administrator about your tooling.
Two other Atri users list this company too. They are never named to you, and you are never named to them.
Other firms that buy from Meridian are probably exposed too. No record confirms it, so it is shown last and never raises a warning on its own.
What we watch for you.
Supply, money, rules, shipping, energy — and the people behind the companies you deal with. Pick a tab to see one example of each, across the UK, US and India.

Traced inward to you, step by step.
If a story never reaches something on your list, you hear nothing. Weak evidence is shown as context, never as a warning. The same story never warns you twice.
List your inputs — materials, energy, freight, rent, finance — and the suppliers, customers, lenders, landlords, utilities and hauliers behind them. This takes a few minutes and you can change it any time.
YOU TOLD USAtri reads official records, news and reference prices across the UK, US and India every day, checks which real companies are involved, and follows each effect inward, step by step, to see whether it reaches something on your list.
WATCHED DAILYEvery warning shows its source, how strong the evidence is, and a link to the original record. Warnings are kept with their dates and what happened next — right, wrong and still open — so you can check the track record yourself.
YOUR WARNINGHow sure we are.
Every warning shows its evidence. Government records and market data are strong enough to raise a warning. Past patterns and our own reading are shown fainter, and never raise a warning on their own.
Gazette, Companies House, IBBI, SEC. The strongest evidence.
Exchange-rate fixings, freight and commodity indices. Measured, not guessed.
How a similar event played out before. A pattern, not a fact.
Our own reading of the story. Shown last — never raises a warning alone.
Built for businesses that depend on other companies — and can’t afford a surprise.
Small and medium-sized businesses in the UK, India and the US that depend on specific companies and people — suppliers, customers, lenders, landlords, utilities, hauliers.
The London Gazette and Companies House, read daily, alongside UK news and price benchmarks.
IBBI insolvency announcements and RBI data, alongside Indian news and the rupee.
SEC filings and enforcement orders, alongside US news and price benchmarks.
Atri protects the costs, suppliers and customers you run on — not a portfolio.
Nothing unless a story touches a supplier, cost or company you listed.
Every claim shows its evidence. A guess never reads like a fact.
Not just the problem. The way out of it.
When a supplier fails, Atri finds other active companies in the same line of business — alternatives matched by UK SIC industry classification on the live Companies House register — and shows what is on file versus what you must still check yourself.

A small change far away can end up on your invoice.
Here is why we trace it step by step. In 1961 Edward Lorenz showed that a tiny change at the start can lead to a very different result later. So Atri does not try to predict the future. It follows each effect, one step at a time, and speaks only when the chain reaches you.
One arrives at your watchlist. The other never does. That gap is the whole problem.
