AI can translate a document. It can't certify one.
Verdacert is the certification layer for AI translation. Your agent does the translation work it's already good at; we add the human review, the credentialed signature, and the Ed25519-signed receipt that holds up in front of USCIS, courts, universities, and employers.
Sandbox keys in 60 seconds. Live keys unlock when you add a card. No waitlist, no sales call.
The bytes are the cheap part. The seal is the moat.
Every certified-translation business that's been around long enough to matter knows the secret: the translation itself is commodity work that gets cheaper every year. The certification— a credentialed human attesting on paper, with legal liability attached when USCIS rejects it — is the only part an AI can't do.
We built Verdacert's API around that. You translate inside your product, with your prompts, your models, your UX. We add the layer that makes the output a legal artifact.
Two product lines, one wedge.
From scratch
Standard tier. Your customer sends source docs; we deliver a certified PDF in 14–48 hours. Every step done by us. Same SKU a law firm orders directly.
Your draft, our signature
Send your AI-generated draft alongside the source. A credentialed reviewer compares, edits where needed, and signs the certification. Same legal acceptance, ~50% the price, ~3× faster.
Best for agents whose own translation quality is already strong — we're the seal, not the typist.
Pick the integration shape your agent already has.
Claude Desktop, Cursor, agentic frameworks
Point any MCP client at /api/mcp with a Bearer token. Seven tools — capabilities, quote, submit, get_status, get_result, refund, verify_certificate — surface natively in the agent's tool menu. Streamable HTTP, stateless.
Drop-in tool definitions
Typed Vercel AI SDK tool exports you paste into your codebase. ~150 lines of TypeScript, no extra package to install. Works inside generateText, streamText, and the agent loop primitives.
Function-calling spec
Plain function-calling JSON schemas + a fetch wrapper. Drop into your tools array, handle the tool_calls in your existing loop. Works with any model that does OpenAI-compatible function calling.
Plain HTTP
Every endpoint documented in /api/v1/openapi.yaml. Feed it to Stainless, Speakeasy, Postman, or your code-gen of choice. Auth is Bearer; responses are structured JSON with stable error codes.
Every certificate is independently verifiable.
Each Verdacert certificate carries an Ed25519-signed JWS receipt. Your end user — or USCIS, or a downstream AI, or any third party — can verify the signature against our public JWKS without ever contacting us. The artifact is the trust; we're just the entity behind the key.
Every certified translation we've issued has been accepted. Refund guarantee on any future rejection.
On every certificate. Verify against /.well-known/jwks.json.
QR + text. Anyone with the cert can confirm authenticity.
Standard tier is 48h. Specialty languages add ~25%.
Get paid for every order your agent refers.
Every paid live API order earns 10% rev-share by default. Pending balances mature after a 14-day refund window; matured balance is disbursed on the 1st of each month via Stripe Connect Express. Onboard for payouts self-serve from the partner portal — same place you mint your API keys.
The math: a paralegal-AI product processing ~50 I-130 packets a month (3 docs each, $50 average per packet) earns ~$150/month in rev-share at the default rate. We tune the rate up for high-volume partners.
Where this fits.
Immigration AI products
Paralegal copilots, I-130 / I-589 / N-400 packet preparers, asylum-case assistants. Translation is on the critical path of every filing.
Study-abroad & admissions agents
Diplomas, transcripts, recommendation letters. Universities require certified translation; your agent handles the rest of the application.
Vertical AI for HR & global mobility
Foreign-issued employment letters, residency documents, qualification records. Bulk translation needs at predictable margins.
Court-tech & legal-research agents
Foreign-language evidence, contracts, judgments. Higher complexity tier; specialty-language pricing included.
Medical & clinical research
Foreign medical records, vaccine certificates, consent forms. Same certification standard, healthcare-aware reviewer pool.
Generic agent platforms with translation as a feature
Drop the MCP server into your agent's tool list. Users who occasionally need certified translation now have it; you earn rev-share without building the back end.
Ship self-serve. Email us for the bigger conversation.
Sandbox key + first integration: do that yourself in 60 seconds at /onboarding. If you're ramping to material volume, want a custom rev-share rate, need a DPA, or are bringing a co-marketed launch, hit us up directly.
