Encrypted at rest, isolated from the model
Resolved from an AES-256-GCM vault at the moment of the call and attached to the request — the model never sees the secrets.
Try asking
Find up to 10 matching profiles in Ploid's people index for 1 ACU per completed search, including no matches, without starting research. Failed searches are not charged. Results are bounded, not exhaustive, and indexed details may be stale. Show the candidates and ask the user to choose before research_person, even for a single match. Use company, location or title to narrow a name.
Start source-reviewed deep research on one selected person_id from search_people, or an explicit HTTPS LinkedIn person profile URL. For a name, search and ask the user to choose first. First workspace access costs 25 ACU, including an already-cached profile; rereads within 90 days are free. Not-found and uncertain results are free. Returns a resumable run_id when pending; use get_research_status for the result.
Build a verified list of people from a natural-language sales or research query. Each match is checked against criteria derived from the query. Returns a resumable run_id; use get_research_status for the list.
Build a verified list of likely buyers and influencers at a company for a specific product. Returns a resumable run_id; use get_research_status for the list.
Retrieve a pending or completed research_person, find_people, or find_decision_makers run by run_id, including after reconnecting. Pending runs should be checked no more often than every 5 seconds. Does not start or cancel research.
Stop a research run when the user asks to cancel. Work already completed may still be charged, including people a search admitted before it stopped.
