CompaniesHouseWatch: Client Change Monitor & AML Log
CompaniesHouseWatch: Client Change Monitor & AML Log ships as a ready-to-import n8n automation package: load the bundled workflow JSON, connect the credentials listed on this page, and activate it on self-hosted n8n or n8n Cloud.
Automatically detect director, ownership, address, and dissolution changes for every client company and log an ongoing due-diligence evidence trail for HMRC AML supervision.
- Check every tracked client company against Companies House automatically every day
- Catch new or resigned directors, PSC/ownership changes, address changes, and dissolutions the moment they're filed
- Draft a plain-English AI summary of exactly what changed for each affected client
- Email an instant alert to your compliance inbox with the specific change and company
- Build a permanent evidence-trail log proving ongoing client due diligence for HMRC AML supervision
- Retry automatically on a failed alert so no compliance-relevant change is ever silently missed
- Run entirely on the free official Companies House API and a Google Sheet you already control
Setup Service — optional live install and test. Choose your tier at checkout (not tied to this template's price).
Paste the license key from your receipt. It must match this template.
