FACTDOCK PLATFORM API · REST · MCP
Three business APIs — choose what you needPlatform API
Build primary-source search into
your services and in-house AI
A search-and-citation component for your apps, business systems and in-house retrieval (RAG). Call it over REST API or MCP with a dedicated business API key that allows integration into your own products.
REST APIMCPResults with sourcesPay as you goYour language
What you can search
We search public bodies and academic sources and organise the results for you. Every result comes with its source URL and publication date.
Search engines (the same as the app)
Web, academic, patent, company, sourcing, finance, infrastructure, real estate, trade compliance, legal, medical database, veterinary clinical tools and the epidemic map — the same engines as the Factdock app, using API credits at the business price.
Rabies data and data for China are not included.
Medicines databases
Approved human and veterinary medicines from regulators in Japan, the US, Europe and Asia — search by name or active ingredient, then open the details.
Adverse event counts
Aggregated counts of reported adverse events, by medicine. No individual case reports are provided.
Official announcements and regulatory news
Announcements from governments and regulators around the world, sorted by field and country, newest first.
Scientific literature
Bibliographic records and abstracts of papers, to check the evidence behind a claim.
From sign-up to your first call
Everything is self-service. No monthly plan is needed — you start by buying API credits.
- STEP 01
Create an account
Sign up with your email address. It takes a few minutes.
- STEP 02
Choose “For businesses & developers”
Enter your company details and agree to the API Terms of Use.
- STEP 03
Buy API credits
Purchase a pack of API credits. Your registration is complete with the first purchase.
- STEP 04
Issue a key and call the API
Issue an API key on the developer page and call it from your system or AI agent.
Two ways to connect
REST API
Call it over HTTPS from the systems you build. Responses are JSON, and titles and summaries can be returned in the language you specify.
MCP
Register it as a tool for your in-house AI agents, so they can search primary sources and cite them in their answers.
Pay-as-you-go API credits
Buy credits in advance and use them as you go. There is no monthly fee, and you can start small.
Separate from app credits
API credits are a business wallet of their own, kept apart from the credits of a personal app plan.
Each call uses credits
Each call uses the number of credits set for that endpoint. Your balance and this month's usage are shown on the developer page.
Top up when you need to
When your balance runs low, buy another pack. Calls stop when there are not enough credits left — nothing is charged beyond what you bought.
Larger volumes
For large deployments or a quote, please contact us.
Pricing
The price per call is the same for every pack. Larger packs add bonus credits, a higher speed and more search-engine calls at the same time.
| Basic | Pro | Scale | |

Bonus credits on larger packs
Some packs add bonus API credits on top of the credits you buy. Bonus credits have the same validity as the credits bought with them.
Speed and concurrency follow your most recent pack
The number of calls per minute and the number of search-engine calls you can run at the same time are those of the pack you purchased most recently, regardless of your balance. If you buy a smaller pack after a larger one, the smaller pack's values apply; credits you already have remain usable.
Valid for one year
Purchased credits are valid for one year from your most recent purchase. Each purchase extends the whole balance.
Safeguards against runaway usage
Repeated identical calls are stopped
If the same call with the same conditions is repeated in a short time, it is stopped without using credits — protection against loops in your code or your AI agent.
A daily cap for each company
Each company has an upper limit on the credits it can use per day, so a mistake cannot drain your balance at once.
Limits on call rate and size
Overly fast or overly large requests are refused with an error, protecting both your balance and the service.
Keys you control
A key is shown only once, when it is issued, and we store it only as a cryptographic hash. You can stop a key at any time.
Terms of use
Integration into your products is allowed
You may build it into your own apps, services and in-house systems.
No resale or redistribution
Reselling or redistributing the data as it is, or offering it as a competing service, is not permitted.
Reference information
Results are reference information, not medical, veterinary, legal or investment advice, and are not a basis for diagnosis or prescribing.
Three business APIs — choose what you need
Use everything Factdock searches, or only the data your service needs. One account lets you add just the products you use.
- This page
Platform API
The same search engines as the Factdock app — web, academic, patents, companies, medicines and more — built into your systems and in-house AI.
ForDevelopers, in-house AI and business systems
Insights API
Primary information from public bodies and companies worldwide — announcements and breaking news — delivered to your system in 109 languages.
ForMedia, finance, research firms and consultancies
Medical DB API
Search official medicine databases, adverse-event reports and literature from your own system — and read them in your own language.
ForHealthcare systems, universities, schools and research institutes
How the three work together
One account, only the products you need
Create one account and add only the products you use. You can add another product later.
Separate keys and balances for each product
Each product has its own API keys and its own balance, so usage in one never affects another.
Plans that fit each product
Insights and Medical DB have monthly plans with a set number of calls included, plus add-on packs. The Platform API uses prepaid packs. Payment is by card.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need a monthly plan?
No. The business API runs on prepaid API credits. Your registration is complete once you buy your first pack of credits.
Can I use it in a service for my customers?
Yes. You may build it into your own products and services, as long as you do not resell or redistribute the data as it is, or offer it as a competing service.
Which languages are supported?
Specify a language in your request and titles and summaries are returned in that language. The original source URL is always included.
What is the difference from the Personal API?
The Personal API connects your own AI assistant using the credits of your app plan, for personal and internal use only. The business API uses a dedicated business key and allows integration into your products.
