How to get a list of new Delaware LLCs and companies
Delaware does not publish one. The Division of Corporations has a free search for one company at a time, but no download of its register, no API, and no list of new filings. Recordwire counted 16,836 new Delaware entities in the last 30 days, about 561 a day, and delivers each one by API, MCP, or weekly CSV.
Three ways to get them

Pull them from the API
Ask for jurisdiction=US-DE with a formed_after date. Results come newest first; follownext_cursor for the rest. From an agent, the MCP toolsearch_businesses takes the same filters, and a webhook can push each new company to you instead.

Does Delaware publish a list of new businesses?
No. The Delaware Division of Corporations offers a free entity search for one company at a time, but no download of its register, no API, and no list of new filings, and its terms prohibit automated or bulk searching.
Can I get a list of Delaware corporations?
Not from the state, which sells no download of its register. Recordwire's Delaware list starts with formations from October 2026, so it holds new corporations, LLCs, and partnerships rather than every company on the register: 4,307 new Delaware corporations in the last 30 days, each by API or in the weekly CSV.
How many new businesses are formed in Delaware?
The Division of Corporations reported 334,461 new entities in 2025, up from 289,810 in 2024. Recordwire recorded 16,836 new Delaware entities in the last 30 days, about 561 a day.
How far back does Recordwire have Delaware data?
Coverage starts in October 2026 and includes new formations, not changes to older companies.
What does each record include?
Legal name, Delaware file number, entity type, formation date, whether the company is domestic or foreign (formed in another state), and its registered agent with address. Delaware does not publish directors or officers.
