PermisAPI vs Brazil: common questions

Which is more reliable, PermisAPI or Brazil?

Only Brazil is on our probe schedule so far (—% uptime over 90 days). The other is catalogued but not yet live-checked, so we can't compare measured reliability head-to-head — check the uncovered API's own status page for now.

Do PermisAPI and Brazil need an API key?

Brazil needs no key, while PermisAPI requires a free API key. If you want to start calling without signup, reach for Brazil first.

Can I call PermisAPI and Brazil from the browser?

Only Brazil is browser-friendly — it returns CORS headers over HTTPS. PermisAPI needs a server-side call or proxy, so factor that into which one fits a front-end project.

Are PermisAPI and Brazil free for commercial use?

PermisAPI has unclear commercial terms, and Brazil has unclear commercial terms. We track service terms and the data license as separate fields — see the Commercial use and Data license rows above, and confirm both before shipping either in a paid product.
