SDK for the Corpsec and Proforma APIs

Audience and Intention

This software development kit aims to make it easier to build LegalTech applications which deal with corporations.

Applications may deal with

• company secretarial work (directors’ meetings, AGMs, EGMs, members’ resolutions by written means, filings)
• corporate finance work (share transfers, fundraising, share issues, share buybacks)
• bulk document generation (creating hundreds or thousands of customized notices or letters of demand)

This SDK provides

• schemas for type-checking and data validation,
• API client libraries for various web services, and
• a command-line interface to the above
