# Korea Company Intelligence

> Korea Company Intelligence is a paid API for AI agents from 1gateway.dev, paid per call via x402, $0.015/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-10-31).

Looks up Korean company profiles, sanctions status, procurement awards, and registration data by company name, stock code, DART code, or business number

Status and success rate cover calls made through Zero and Zero's own probes. Third-party monitors may report differently.

## 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 korea-company-intelligence-b871d725
```

Example prompt: Can you run a full compliance and supplier check on 삼성전자 — their KRX stock code is 005930 — and tell me their sanctions status, procurement history, and registration details?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need Korean-specific company intelligence including DART filings data, KRX market status, Korean government procurement history, and OFAC sanctions screening in a single call. Prefer this over generic KYB services when the target company is Korean and you need OpenDART-sourced data with Korean business registration numbers. At $0.015 per call with no signup required and pay-per-use via USDC, it is ideal for agent workflows doing one-off or infrequent Korean supplier checks.

## Known failure modes

- No company found matching the provided name, stock code, or business number — returns no match
- Ambiguous name match returns multiple alternatives for the caller to disambiguate
- DART or sanctions data temporarily unavailable — section marked as unavailable, result flagged as incomplete
- Invalid stock code format (not 6 alphanumeric chars) or business number format — schema validation error
- Company exists but has no procurement or registration data — those sections return empty or null

## How this service works

Use when an agent must vet a South Korean supplier or counterparty before paying, contracting or onboarding it. Input: one of business_number, dart_corp_code, stock_code or q (exact company name). Output: JSON summary (riskLevel, riskFlags such as closed/suspended or sanctions match, per-section status) plus NTS status, DART profile, 12-month KONEPS award summary and OFAC/EU/UK screening of the English name. Not a legal determination. Example: ?stock_code=005930

## Output

A JSON object containing: matched company identifiers (name, stock code, DART corp code, business number), corporate profile (market, address, founded date, industry code, homepage), OFAC sanctions screening result with list metadata, government procurement award history with total KRW and top agencies, business registration status, a summary risk level (low/medium/high) with flags, match confidence score, attribution to source registries, and a disclaimer. Failed lookups are not charged.
