Free for Legal Aid
Legal aid organizations and nonprofits get the full API free. You see the law on real cases every day, so you're the first to know when a rule is wrong. The deal is plain: the registry is yours to use, and when you find an error, you tell us.
What You Get
- Full API access, free: bundles, search, the changes feed and the verify endpoint, at 60 requests a minute.
- A formal errata SLA. A report you file as a Community partner is triaged within 48 hours if it is critical (a wrong deadline, a wrong amount, anything that could cost someone a right) and within 7 days otherwise.
- Your name on the errata changelog for every confirmed error you catch, with your consent, as it appears on your API key.
- A say in what comes next. The gaps you hit go on the roadmap, and empty cells on /coverage are filled in order of who is asking.
What We Ask
- Tell us when a rule is wrong. When one disagrees with what you see in the field, like a deadline that moved, an amount that changed or a provision a court read differently, file it:
curl -X POST https://api.pandectai.com/api/v1/errata \
-H "Authorization: Bearer rc_your_community_key" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{
"ruleId": "us-or-lease-security-deposit-return",
"reporterClass": "community-partner",
"severity": "critical",
"description": "ORS 90.300 was amended in the 2026 session; the accounting window is now …",
"creditConsent": true
}'- Credit Pandect in your product or materials: “Rules data by Pandect”, with a link. This was a tier term before the errata program, and it stays.
- Don't resell the data itself. Serving your clients with it is the whole point.
What We Promise
- Every report is triaged within the SLA, and the verification pipeline watches the queue; the methodology page shows how.
- A confirmed error is corrected in the registry with a changelog entry, published for good on the public errata changelog and credited to you if you agree.
- If we reject your report, you get the reasoning, usually with the primary-source quote the rule is anchored to.
How to Get a Key
Community keys are issued by hand for now, and self-serve signup is on the roadmap. Write to us with your organization and who you serve, and the operator will create your key on the dashboard.
