Example prompt: Can you verify whether Palantir Technologies is a legitimate SEC-reporting public company, and pull the official Delaware Secretary of State registry link for them?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need a lightweight, fast KYB-lite check on a US business — specifically to confirm SEC public-company status or retrieve an official Secretary-of-State registry link for DE, CA, TX, NY, or FL. It is ideal for pre-onboarding due diligence, investor verification, or contract counterparty validation where a full KYB suite is unnecessary. Prefer this over manual searches when you need a programmatic, agent-callable verification at low cost ($0.07 per call).

## Known failure modes

- Business name not found in SEC or state registry — returns no match or empty result
- State parameter not provided or not one of the five supported states (DE, CA, TX, NY, FL) — no SoS link returned
- Ambiguous business name matching multiple entities — may return incorrect or multiple results
- Ticker symbol not recognized — returns no SEC record
- Service unavailable on Render free tier — cold start latency or timeout
