New tool: /adverse-media — screen a person or organisation for negative news and sanctions/PEP exposure. A deterministic layer matches against consolidated global sanctions & PEP lists; a second layer scans public news and classifies adverse coverage (fraud, money laundering, bribery, sanctions, enforcement).
Built against the #1 screening failure — same-name people: sanctions matches are corroboration-gated (a name-only hit is flagged “possible”, never confirmed), and same-name news articles about other people are disambiguated out and listed separately. Add a date of birth, country, or aliases to sharpen the match.
POST /v1/adverse-media over REST; screen_adverse_media as an MCP tool on the full-suite server. Screen by name (with optional disambiguators) or pass an identity document to read the subject from it. Screening coverage, not a determination — a hit means “review”, and “nothing found” is not a clean record.

PII detection & redaction
New tool: /redact — find and mask personal data in a document. A deterministic pass catches structured identifiers (emails, payment cards, US SSNs, India PANs, AU ABNs); a vision pass catches names, addresses, and dates of birth.
Privacy by design: detected values are masked in the response (the raw PII is never returned), and a redacted copy of the text is included when the document has a text layer. The document is never stored.
POST /v1/redact over REST; redact_pii as an MCP tool on the full-suite server. Detection coverage, not a guarantee — review before relying on it for compliance.

Document-pack completeness — does the pack have what it needs?
New tool: /check-pack — give it a set of documents and a checklist, and it tells you which required documents are present and which are missing. Pick a named scheme (income proof, lending pre-qualification, rental application) or define your own requirements.
Built to stay cheap: it only identifies each document’s type (one page-1 read, hash-cached) — never full extraction — so a 50-page bank statement costs the same as a one-page one, capped at 12 documents per pack.
POST /v1/check-pack over REST; check_pack as an MCP tool on the full-suite server. Completeness coverage, not approval — that the right document types are present, not that any is genuine or that an application is approved.

Field extraction — pull structured values from any document
New tool: /extract — a vision model reads a document and returns the fields you ask for. Say what to pull as an ad-hoc field list, a template (payslip, tax invoice, bank statement, receipt), or let it auto-detect the document type and pull the right fields; an unrecognised type falls back to every labelled field.
Reads checkboxes, merged-cell tables, and nested tables, across up to a few pages per document. A field it can’t clearly see comes back as not_found — it abstains rather than guessing.
POST /v1/extract over REST; extract_fields as an MCP tool on the full-suite server. Extraction, not verification — values are what the document shows, never proof it’s genuine.

Identity check — the Australian 100-point check
New tool: /identity — verify a person’s identity from a set of documents. A reader identifies each document and the fields it shows; a deterministic engine tallies them against the AFP 100-point check or the AUSTRAC safe-harbour rules and tells you whether identity is established (and exactly what’s missing if not).
POST /v1/identity-check over REST; verify_identity as an MCP tool on the full-suite server.
Identity coverage, not a forgery judgment — abstains on documents it can’t read confidently, and never counts an income document (e.g. a payslip) toward identity.

Financial document classifier + one MCP server for everything
New tool: /classify — financial document-type classification (payslip, tax invoice, bank statement, salary certificate, PAYG summary, receipt) with country and confidence. Abstains rather than guesses.
POST /v1/classify over REST; classify_document as an MCP tool.
One MCP server now carries the full suite: add /mcp once and get every tool. Scoped servers (/mcp-aitext, /mcp-verify) keep working for existing installs.

API keys + usage metering
Free self-serve API keys (instant, no account): your own 50 documents/day quota instead of sharing the per-IP one.
Bearer authentication on every endpoint, REST and MCP alike.
GET /v1/usage — metered usage read from the same counters that enforce the quota.

Readable fact-check links
Fact-check permalinks now use the document’s own title as the URL slug (hash-named files no longer produce hash-looking links).
10 June 2026
URL intake everywhere + agent prompts
Every MCP tool now accepts a public url — agents verify a document with one short string instead of encoding it.
Fact-check results from MCP calls return a shareable permalink.
MCP servers publish ready-made prompts (e.g. "Fact-check a report URL") that appear natively in supporting clients.
AI-text detection accepts {"url": ...} over REST.
Security hardening across the URL fetcher and upload paths.
8 June 2026
Public fact-check permalinks
Every fact-check persists under a content-hash id with a public, shareable /fc/<slug>-<hex> page.
Fact-check accepts a report URL directly — paste a link instead of uploading.
Streaming (SSE) keeps deep checks alive through proxies.

Three MCP servers in the official registry
Document forensics (/mcp), AI-text detection (/mcp-aitext), and reference fact-checking (/mcp-verify) are live in the official MCP registry — hosted, no install.
New tools and pages: AI detector and Fact check, with feedback on every result.
