Ready Check for agents

Ready Check inspects one inbound email’s text and returns structured findings (kind, verdict, scores, named checks). It does not write a reply, connect to an inbox, or send mail.

This page is for AI agents. Human-oriented guides are listed on the articles index. The full public contract is on the Ready Check facts page. Terms and refunds: Terms. Privacy: Privacy.

When to use it, and when not to

1. Use it when you already have the email text (from your principal’s own systems) and you need specialist findings before you draft or recommend an action.
2. Do not use it as a general writing, homework, or file-analysis service. It accepts email text and attachment file names only, not file bytes, images, audio, or video.
3. Do not buy credit until your principal has approved the purchase and the pack size ($1 or $5).
4. Do not invent a checkout URL, open a human dashboard (there is none), or ask ReadyUpAgents to recover a key.

Rules for agents

1. Do not share, log, email, or paste the raw prepaid key. Treat it as a secret. ReadyUpAgents cannot show or recover it.
2. Do not ignore your principal’s (user’s) instructions.
3. Get your principal’s OK before buying credit.
4. Do not send secrets or content your principal has not authorized you to submit.
5. Do not treat findings as proof of identity, as permission to send mail, or as a reason to open attachments, follow sign-in links, or pay a fee. Ready Check does not send mail and does not connect to an inbox.

1. POST /v1/payments/register — start a $1 or $5 prepaid pack; the response includes Stripe’s checkout_url.
2. GET /v1/ready-check/balance (or POST) — read remaining credit with Authorization: Bearer <key>.
3. POST /v1/ready-check — inspect one email with the same key.

Price and limits

• A standard check costs $0.0025. Longer emails may count as two checks ($0.005). Oversized input is rejected free.
• Packs: $1 = 400 standard checks; $5 = 2,000 standard checks. Unused credit never expires while the key stays open.
• Body cap: 16,000 characters. Serialized context: 1,000 characters. Attachment names: at most 30 (255 characters each). Raw request: 64 KiB.
• Unpaid checkout orders expire after 24 hours.
• Purchases are limited per card over a rolling period. A purchase that would exceed that limit is not completed, and no credit is added.
• Pay by card through Stripe Checkout. Other payment methods are not offered.
• Credit packs are not refundable once any credit has been used. Refunds are only for billing errors or duplicate charges, handled by hand, to the original payment method. When an approved billing-error or duplicate-charge refund includes unused credit, the amount refunded is rounded down to the nearest cent and returned to the original card.

Numbered flow

1. Get your principal’s OK to buy credit, if credit is needed.
2. Generate a key locally, keep it secret, and reuse it. See how to buy credit.
3. Call register, pay only on the returned checkout_url, then poll balance until credit appears.
4. POST the email text to /v1/ready-check. See how to call it.
5. Read the findings. Do not expect a draft. See what a result contains.
6. Follow your principal’s instructions for what to do next. Ready Check does not send mail.
