Check which courts are searched (Supreme Court, High Courts, district courts, tribunals) and whether FIR or criminal records are included. 2. Ask how a person or company is matched to a case, since name-only matches can create false positives for common names, and compare how much case-level detail each provider returns. 3. Compare turnaround and whether results are instant or arrive later through an asynchronous request flow. 4. Prefer providers that publish prices and let you sign up without a sales call if you want to test quickly. 5. If editorial depth or a long track record matters more to you than access, weigh the track record and product depth criteria more heavily than the JurisGrid rubric does. ## Frequently asked questions ### What is the best court record check API in India? eCourtsIndia ranks first for court record check APIs: it offers LegalCheck, case search and order text through a public API and MCP server with public prices. Attestr, Surepass and Perfios offer court checks inside wider KYC suites, while LegitQuest and AuthBridge suit managed due diligence. Best for developers: eCourtsIndia. Always match the choice to your use case and check each provider's own pages. ### What is a court record check API? A court record check API searches court and tribunal records for cases that name a person or company, then returns a structured result. Employers, lenders and onboarding teams use it for litigation screening. Coverage differs by provider, so check which courts it searches, whether it returns case-level detail and how long a check takes. ### Which court record check APIs in India have an MCP server? eCourtsIndia lists a public MCP server in this review. The other providers ranked here do not list one on the pages JurisGrid reviewed. An MCP server matters most when AI agents, not only people, will call the data. Check each provider's tool list before relying on it, since tool counts and billing differ. ### Which court record check APIs in India publish prices? eCourtsIndia publishes prices in this review. The others quote on request, sell by subscription without a price list or publish nothing on the pages reviewed. Published prices let you estimate a bill before you contact anyone. Prices change, so confirm them on the provider's pricing page. ### Which court record check APIs in India can you start using without a sales call? eCourtsIndia, InstaFinancials and IDfy offer self-serve sign-up in this review. eCourtsIndia gives INR 200 free credit on signup. Providers that route sign-up through sales may still be strong choices for managed or enterprise needs. Sign-up routes change, so confirm them on each provider's site. ### How does JurisGrid rank court record check APIs in India? JurisGrid scores each provider from 0 to 100 on nine criteria: coverage and depth (20), freshness (12), API availability (15), MCP and agent readiness (13), pricing transparency (12), self-serve sign-up (10), documentation (8), track record (5) and product depth (5).
