Everyone I’ve built a library i’m fairly proud of, but could use some help tracking down bugs or thinking of features ya’ll would like to see the tool is on hex and the source code is on github. I’m still fairly new to elixir and any feedback, feature requests, or pull requests are welcome.

- A Google Spreadsheet created by OCCRP.
- The ISO 20275: Entity Legal Forms Code List
- Wikipedia also maintains an index of types of business entity.
