Entrust's own site answered 403, so terms, privacy notice, pricing and security.txt weren't read. There is no idempotency key, and live tokens need a Dashboard account with billing details.\n\n**Vouched.** Vouched publishes per-transaction prices from $0.75 with a $300 monthly minimum and a 14-day trial, and its docs carry llms.txt, OpenAPI fragments and filterable job search. Rate limits have no number, there is no idempotency key, server SDK or security.txt, and the API status page shows a 70-minute rise in rejections on 1 October 2026.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### Entrust Identity Verification (formerly Onfido)\n\n1. Use the regional host for the account (api.eu, api.us or api.ca.onfido.com/v3.6). v3.6 has no default region\n2. Prefer an OAuth client with only the scopes the task needs over a live API token, and refresh the 60-minute access token\n3. Stay under 400 requests a minute live and 120 in sandbox, and back off on a 429 `rate_limit` error\n4. Check before retrying a POST. There is no idempotency key, so a retry can create a second applicant or check\n5. Treat webhook events as duplicates or out of order, and verify `X-SHA2-Signature` over the raw body\n\n### Vouched\n\n1. Use the private key in `X-API-Key` against verify.vouched.id or verify.eu.vouched.id, matching the account's region\n2. Check Find Jobs before resubmitting. There is no idempotency key and each job is billed\n3. Pass `withPhotos=false` and select `fields` on Find Jobs to keep responses small\n4. In a test account, use the name test pass for a clean result and any other name for a failure\n5. Back off on 429. All endpoints share one limit and no figure is published\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, Entrust Identity Verification (formerly Onfido) or Vouched?\n\nEntrust Identity Verification (formerly Onfido) scores 62.1 (B) on agent readiness against Vouched's 56.4 (C), and leads in 3 of 7 scored categories.
