# LimitGuard Compliance Readiness Assessment

> LimitGuard Compliance Readiness Assessment is a paid API for AI agents from api.limitguard.ai, paid per call via x402, $0.11/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-10-10).

Returns a compliance readiness score and identified gaps for an AI system or entity, indicating how prepared they are for regulatory requirements like trust scoring or credit scoring frameworks.

## Facts

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 limitguard-compliance-readiness-assessment-63d24168
```

Example prompt: Check the compliance readiness score for entity 'agent-xyz-42' as a trust_scoring system and tell me what gaps I still need to address before deployment.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to assess how ready a specific entity or AI system is for compliance with regulatory frameworks (trust scoring, credit scoring), especially when you want a gap analysis showing exactly which checklist items are incomplete. Prefer this over the quick risk score endpoint when you need actionable remediation guidance, not just a raw risk number.

## Known failure modes

- Missing or invalid entity_id returns an error or empty result
- Unknown system_type value may result in incorrect scoring framework being applied
- If completed_items are not correctly specified, gaps may be over-reported
- Service may return stale scores if underlying compliance data sources are not refreshed
- 402 Payment Required if prepaid balance is insufficient

## How this service works

Check every lead against official business registers, VAT and sanctions lists. Proceed, review or block, with the source. 5 lead checks free.

## Output

A JSON object containing a numeric readiness_score (0-100), the system_type assessed, and an array of gaps listing specific compliance items that are missing or incomplete (e.g. 'transparency_documentation').
