Disclosure: I’m the developer and founder of StaticCreation. This is my own product.
Hey. Been working on this for over a year and just went live.
What it is: StaticCreation is an API marketplace for UK public sector data. Instead of scraping Companies House, DVSA, Land Registry, EPC, and a dozen other sources separately, you get one API key that works across everything.
The problem I kept hitting: Every time I built something that needed UK data, I’d spend weeks writing scrapers, handling rate limits, parsing inconsistent formats, and maintaining pipelines that break every time a government site changes. I figured other devs were doing the same thing.
What’s in there:
1.2 billion records across 16 datasets
Property: EPC certificates, Land Registry transactions, planning applications
Vehicles: DVLA data, full MOT history (832m test records), MIB insurance checks
Business: Companies House profiles, officers, charges, filings
Plus energy data, school/Ofsted ratings, crime stats, food data, fuel prices, trademarks, and more
How it works:
Buy tokens once (starts at £1.50 for 100), spend them per call. No subscriptions, no separate plans per dataset. One balance works across every endpoint.
Combined endpoints are what I’m most proud of, instead of calling 5 APIs yourself and joining the data, one call to Property Intelligence returns EPC + crime + schools + energy + price history for any UK address. Same idea for vehicles, companies, etc.
Stack: FastAPI backend, PostgreSQL, self-hosted on dedicated hardware in the UK. Everything runs through my own ETL pipelines, no reselling third-party APIs.
What I’d love feedback on:
Is the pricing clear enough?
Are there UK datasets you’d want that I’m missing?
Would you actually use something like this?

Happy to answer any questions about the build, the data partnerships, or the tech.
