How it works.

A key

The desk issues a key per application. Send it as the X-TAI-Key header. Keys can be revoked at any time.

JSON, dated

Every item carries its source, the date it was issued or published, and, for answers and verdicts, who signed it off.

The public endpoints

POST /ask, POST /verify and GET /now need no key, within the daily limits. The base is https://thursdaytimes.com/wp-json/thursday-ai/v1.

Terms

Answers keep their proof row and link when shown. No resale, no training on the content, and the paper is named as the source.
