    "description": "Due-diligence and KYB signals for UK-registered companies, built for autonomous agents. Resolve a company by name or Companies House number, then get its live registry profile (status, type, incorporation date, SIC codes, filing deadlines), a compliance verdict with transparent markers (overdue accounts, overdue confirmation statement, Gazette insolvency notices in the last 365 days, open insolvency cases, public-contract awards), and the provenance-bearing evidence documents behind each signal (source URI, retrieval time, SHA-256). Coverage: every company on the Companies House register (England & Wales, Scotland, Northern Ireland); evidence documents for companies on our continuously monitored watchlist. Profiles are fetched live on each call. A compliance signal from public registries, not legal or credit advice: \"clear\" means no adverse signal was found.",
