How this service works
Verify a business is real and get a legitimacy verdict plus a 0-100 risk score. Give one of name, lei, cik, ticker, isin or qid and get a verdict (real, likely_real, inactive, dissolved or not_found), a risk category, per-dimension flags, reasons, the official registry and which registries corroborated. Deterministic scoring, no LLM. Legitimacy indicators, not legal or credit advice.
Output
Returns a verdict (real, likely_real, inactive, dissolved, or not_found), a numeric risk score from 0–100, a risk category, per-dimension flags, human-readable reasons for the verdict, the primary official registry used, and a list of corroborating registries.
Example use cases
Vendor onboarding legitimacy check
“Before we sign a contract with this vendor, can you verify they're a real, active business? Look them up by their LEI and give me their risk score and legitimacy verdict so I know if it's safe to proceed.”
Pre-transaction business verification
“I'm about to wire money to a company called Pinnacle Solutions. Can you check if they're legitimate using their ticker or CIK? I need to know their risk score and whether they're actually registered in official registries.”
Dissolved or shell company detection
“We got contacted by a potential partner, but something feels off. Can you look up their business by name and tell me if they're dissolved, inactive, or just a shell company? I want to see the risk flags and which registries confirmed their status.”

Endpoint
GEThttps://payai.agentstools.dev/kyb/verify?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need a deterministic, registry-backed legitimacy verdict for a business entity before transacting, onboarding, or due diligence — especially when you have a structured identifier like LEI, CIK, ISIN, or ticker. It is better than a generic web search because it fuses multiple official registries and returns a structured, auditable verdict without LLM hallucination risk.
Side effects
- Company not found in any registry returns verdict 'not_found' with no risk score
- Ambiguous name match with no country hint may return wrong entity — use country param to disambiguate
- Invalid or malformed LEI/ISIN/CIK returns a 400 error
- Inactive or dissolved companies return appropriate verdict but limited registry data
- Rate limiting or payment failure returns 402 when USDC is not provided
