No OpenAPI file, server SDK or idempotency key was found, and the status page history could not be read.\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### Shufti\n\n1. POST every verification to `https://api.shuftipro.com/` with a unique `reference` of 6 to 250 characters and one object per service. Read results from `/status` with that reference\n2. Register the callback domain in the back office first. An unregistered `callback_url` is rejected\n3. Stay under 60 requests a minute per IP on a production account and 20 on a trial account\n4. Check the `Signature` response header. Accounts created after 15 March 2023 hash the Secret Key with SHA-256 before appending it to the raw response\n5. Through MCP, identity checks return a `verification_url` for the person to open. No tool accepts an image, so use the REST API for offsite proofs\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, Shufti or Vouched?\n\nShufti scores 57.8 (C) on agent readiness against Vouched's 56.4 (C), and leads in 4 of 7 scored categories. Vouched leads on schema \u0026 documentation and agent ergonomics.\n\n### Do Shufti and Vouched need an API key?\n\nShufti takes an API key or an OAuth sign-in. Vouched needs an API key.\n\n### Can an agent call Shufti and Vouched without installing anything?\n\nShufti has a hosted endpoint at https://api.shuftipro.com. No hosted endpoint is listed for Vouched.\n\n\n## For agents\n\n- This comparison as JSON: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/shufti-vs-vouched.json, and with the fewest tokens: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/shufti-vs-vouched.min.md\n- Over MCP at https://www.anchorterminal.com/mcp (no key): `compare_tools {\"a\": \"shufti\", \"b\": \"vouched\"}`.
