POST /api/validate_stream/  →  POST /api/validate_stream_result/
  1. Submit your document with validate_stream
  2. Poll for results with validate_stream_result

​
Option B: S3 Presigned URL (Large Documents)

POST /api/validate_stream_presigned_url/  →  Upload to S3  →  POST /api/validate_stream_start/  →  POST /api/validate_stream_result/
  1. Request a presigned URL
  2. Upload your file directly to S3
  3. Trigger validation with validate_stream_start
  4. Poll for results with validate_stream_result

​
Option C: Text Snippet or Email

POST /api/validate_snippet_stream/  →  POST /api/validate_stream_result/
POST /api/validate_email/           →  POST /api/validate_stream_result/
  1. Submit plain text or email content directly
  2. Poll for results with validate_stream_result

​
Custom Policy Rules

Import your organization’s compliance policies and extract enforceable rules:

  1. Upload a policy document (PDF, DOCX, or plain text)
  2. Poll until AI rule extraction completes
  3. Review and activate rules — they’ll run on all future validations
