Frequently asked questions

What is a court record verification API?

It is an API that searches court and tribunal records for cases that name a person or a business and returns the matches, so the check can run inside a hiring, lending or onboarding workflow instead of by hand.

How much does a court record check cost in India?

eCourtsIndia LegalCheck costs INR 99 per check on pay as you go and INR 33 with an active subscription, and new accounts get INR 200 free API credit. Surepass, Attestr, AuthBridge, Gridlines and HyperVerge do not publish a per-check price.

Can an AI agent run a court record check?

Yes. eCourtsIndia runs an MCP server at https://mcp.ecourtsindia.com/mcp with LegalCheck and case search tools, so assistants such as Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor can start a check and read the report.

Is a court record check the same as police verification?

No. A court record check searches public court records for cases. Police verification is a certificate issued by the police after their own enquiry.
