# Briefing your AI on a French company

An AI asked what it knows about a company answers from memory. The briefing gives it today's official data, block by block, with what each block covers and what it does not say, and an instruction: stick to them and quote the source.

## The problem: an AI that fills the gaps

From memory, an assistant mixes up two namesakes, quotes a three-year-old revenue figure or states that a company has no litigation when the source only covers part of the decisions. It does not say what it does not know.

The briefing fits in a few thousand characters. Each block states its status (served, partial, inconclusive absence, to be checked), the age of its data and its coverage; the opening instruction asks the AI to report that status rather than fill a gap, and to copy the source line at the end of its answer.

## The call

Markdown by default, JSON with `Accept: application/json`. With a free key, a briefing counts as one call of the 150-call monthly quota; without an account, it is paid per call over x402. Language: `langue=fr` or `langue=en`, else the key's account language, else French.

## What the briefing does not do

- It names **no natural person**: no officers, no shareholders, no parties to decisions. A sole proprietorship gets a refusal, never charged.
- It returns **no verdict and no score**: they remain sold separately, through `/v1/intelligence/{siren}` and `/v1/score/defaillance/{siren}`.

> ⚠️ The briefing is written by code, from the official registers: no sentence is drafted by a model. What the AI then does with it is its own; the source line lets anyone check what it quotes.

## How you pay

Every route is paid **per call**, in USDC or EURC on the Base network, over the x402 protocol: no account to create, no API key, no subscription. The first call returns a `402` quote your client settles, then replays the call. A failed call is never billed.

Open today: 150 free calls a month with an account, on 106 of 122 routes (the price list says which), and pay-per-call over x402 (USDC or EURC), with no account except registry filings. Prepaid credits: card top-up is not open yet.

Paid responses are **Ed25519-signed**: you can later prove what was served to you, and when. The whole catalogue is free to read in the [OpenAPI document](https://api.sirenic.eu/openapi.json) and in [llms.txt](https://api.sirenic.eu/llms.txt).

## Frequently asked questions

### Is the briefing written by an AI?

No. Every sentence is a constant in French or English, or a template filled by a register field. The caveats come from closed codes already served by the data routes.

### Is the response signed?

Yes, like every paid response: the Ed25519 signature covers the Markdown bytes served, and the Source section carries a public verification link.
