## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability brdata-brazilian-company-regulatory-risk-compliance-screening-c217e9fe
```

Example prompt: Can you screen Brazilian company CNPJ 38.504.819/0001-69 against all federal sanctions lists — CEIS, CNEP, Lista Suja, and leniency agreements — and tell me if they're flagged, what the risk score is, and what sanctions are active?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a single-call compliance verdict against Brazilian federal sanction registers (CEIS, CNEP, CEPIM, Acordos de Leniência, Lista Suja) for a specific CNPJ, particularly for KYB, vendor due-diligence, or public-procurement screening workflows targeting Brazil. It is the right choice over generic company-data APIs when regulatory risk and sanctions coverage — not just firmographic data — is the primary need.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or malformed CNPJ returns an error or empty result
- CNPJ not found in Receita Federal base returns no company profile
- One or more upstream government sources temporarily unavailable — listed in sources_unavailable field with partial results returned
- Rate limiting or payment failure (x402) if USDC payment is not completed
- Lista Suja data may be stale — it is a bi-annual snapshot (Apr/Oct) not a live query
- Network timeout if Portal da Transparência APIs are slow

## How this service works

Brazilian company & public-procurement data for due-diligence, KYB & B2B agents: company profiles by CNPJ, regulatory risk & compliance screening (federal debarment, anti-corruption, leniency & forced-labor register — CEIS, CNEP, 'Lista Suja'), mass search & segmentation across ~28M active companies, and public tenders / licitações (PNCP).

## Output

Returns a JSON object with the CNPJ, a verdict ('clear' or 'flagged'), an integer risk score (0–100), a list of sanction hits (each including the register name, sanction type in Portuguese, sanctioning body, date range, active status, and process reference), total and active hit counts, a list of sources checked, data freshness metadata per source (live query or snapshot, as-of date, update frequency), and a disclaimer noting these are informational public-data indicators and not legal advice.
