Fail-closed resolution
Address conflicts, weak names, and materially tied candidates return a rejection instead of a guess.
Return the regulator record, not another document verdict.
Send a merchant name and address. Receive a canonical regulator identity or a fail-closed rejection with the matching reason and snapshot metadata.
Canonical source ID
Accepted results return the jurisdiction and regulator identifier your system can retain.
Snapshot contract
Every response identifies the data class, observation time, manifest hash, and public source URL.
Prepaid API access
One resolution request, one unit
Plans add 10,000, 30,000, or 100,000 prepaid units. A valid authenticated resolution or canonical-record request uses one unit, including a fail-closed result. Replaying the same request ID does not debit twice.
