Conformant API

Radio type approval requirements for global hardware launches. Tell it which radios your device carries and which markets you are targeting; it tells you where you can ship, what each market demands, and where the answer came from.

Authentication

Every call outside /v1/health and /v1/openapi.json needs a key.

POST /v1/assessment

The flagship. One call covers a whole launch list. The plan gate is on markets per assessment rather than call volume, because the consolidated answer is the point — splitting a launch list across calls returns exactly what the endpoint exists to prevent.

Request

{
  "technologies": ["wifi-6ghz", "ble"],
  "markets": ["US", "EU", "BR", "CN"]
}

Field	Type	Notes
`technologies`	string[]	1–20 ids from `GET /v1/technologies`. Band-specific: `wifi-6ghz` is a different regulatory object from `wifi-5ghz`.
`markets`	string[]	1–250 ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 codes. `EU` is one regime because RED is a single approval covering all member states.

Verdicts

Verdict	Meaning
blocked	A requested radio is prohibited in that market. The SKU cannot be approved as designed.
conditional	Approvable, with obligations — in-country testing, a local representative, a restricted band.
clear	Every requested radio is explicitly permitted and the market's obligations are established with none blocking.
insufficient_data	Not enough is established to answer. Returned whenever a radio's status is unknown or the market's obligations are not seeded.

An absence of evidence is never a permission. A market with a permitted radio but no established obligations returns insufficient_data, not clear. A radio with no row returns unknown, not permitted. If you need a market we do not yet cover, the API says so rather than guessing.

Provenance

Every finding carries the source it came from and how strong that source is.

Tier	Meaning
`regulator`	The regulator's own publication.
`standards_body`	Wi-Fi Alliance, ETSI, ITU and similar.
`consultancy`	A certification lab or market-access consultancy summary. Widely relied on, and weaker than the regulator — which is why you are told.

Reference endpoints

Endpoint	Returns
`GET /v1/regimes`	Every covered market, with regulator, scheme and conformity mark. Filter with `?region=APAC`.
`GET /v1/regimes/{code}`	Full detail for one market, including per-radio status.
`GET /v1/technologies`	The closed vocabulary accepted by `/v1/assessment`.
`GET /v1/me`	Your plan, entitlements and every tier's limits.
`GET /v1/health`	Public. Reports database state and row count.

Errors

Every non-2xx uses one envelope. Branch on code; message is free to be reworded.

{
  "error": {
    "code": "plan_upgrade_required",
    "message": "Your BASIC plan covers 3 markets per assessment; this request listed 12.",
    "upgrade_url": "https://rapidapi.com/…/pricing",
    "request_id": "…"
  }
}

Scope

Conformant produces market-access information for planning. It is not a conformity assessment body, and its output is not legal advice or a certification. Requirements change with regulator decisions; confirm against the regulator before committing a tooling run or a launch date.
