Add an existing company to Alex Legal

There are two ways to register a company on Alex: create a company or add an existing company.

Adding a company is for those with a company already registered with an RCS number (or other identifier for foreign companies). Here's how Alex simplifies the process:

  1. Enter the RCS number: For French companies, simply enter your RCS number and the platform does the rest.

  2. Automatic data retrieval: Using open data (INPI and/or INSEE), Alex collects all the legal information.

  3. Document classification: Our artificial intelligence (AI) retrieves and classifies legal documents from the company's incorporation onwards. We build a complete history, which is stored securely in a digital vault.

  4. Share ownership management: The AI reconstructs the share transfer register, capitalisation table and shareholder accounts. You can then anchor the register on the blockchain.

  5. Reconstruction of appointments and committees: Appointments of directors, auditors and committees are automatically retrieved and classified, including past appointments.

Within a few hours, all your company's data is structured and secured on Alex, ready to use for all your company secretarial work.

What French law says

To add a registered company to a new platform or management tool, certain information must be current and compliant with legal requirements, including:

  • The RCS number must be valid and current.

  • The information retrieved (articles of association, directors, shareholders) must match the legal documents filed at the commercial court registry.

  • Any change to the data must be declared, including changes in share ownership or management.

Alex ensures your data complies with French legal requirements through reliable and complete automatic retrieval.
