FAQ | Decision Insights

It answers questions in plain English only from registry records and links every record it used. Free includes 20 questions a month, Individual 200, and Team 1,000 shared across the team.

A chatbot answers from whatever it was trained on. The Research Assistant looks each thing up in the registry first, answers only from reviewed, dated records, and says so when the registry has nothing.

No. Search and MCP work without one, and so do search and company lookups over the REST API and CLI. Sign in free for the Research Assistant, alerts, and the rest of the REST API and CLI.

Three ways, all returning the same records. Over MCP at https://mcp.decisioninsights.ai/api/mcp-public, which any MCP client can connect to with no account, or at https://mcp.decisioninsights.ai/api/mcp-account once you sign in. Over the REST API at https://api.decisioninsights.ai/api/public/v1. And from a terminal with the CLI, npm i -g @wiretap/decision-insights-cli, which installs di. See Agents and MCP, and Developers.

Free to try it, Individual for one person using it daily, Team to share with up to 5 people, and Enterprise for high volume. Companies managing their own Listing start with the free Listing.

With no account: MCP, REST search, company lookups and industries, and the CLI's search, get-company and list-industries commands. With a free account, signed in: higher call limits, the full REST API, every CLI command, 20 Research Assistant questions a month and 2 alerts. Each plan's call limits are on Agents & MCP, read from the server that enforces them, and every API response states the ones you got.

No. Plans never change how a company is ranked or included. The ranking and inclusion rules are in Standards and Methodology.

Find your company in the directory and select Claim this Listing. It takes a work email and about a minute, and claiming is free. Once claimed, your Listing carries the Verified listing seal and says your company maintains it, on free and paid plans alike.

Your Listing is what an agent gets when it looks your company up here. Claiming lets your team update the description, website, address and social profiles, and the Listing then says your company maintains it. It is free, and it does not change how your company is ranked or included.

Anyone with an email address at your company's domain. Personal addresses such as Gmail can't claim a company, because the domain is how we confirm you work there.

We review every request and reply to the email address you gave. If you ask again for the same domain, it's added to your open request rather than starting a new one.

If you've claimed the Listing, update it from your account. If you haven't, Standards and Methodology says how to ask us to update it, and covers our sourcing rules and editorial oversight.

Contact Decision Insights via the contact us form after you have registered an account with an email address that matches your company.

No. Being included and claiming your Listing are free. Paid plans raise research limits or publish your company's news to the registry; none of them change how your company is ranked or included.

Two marks. Verified listing means the company has claimed its Listing and maintains it. Agent Ready, Verified by Stringer, means Stringer's latest check scored the company's own website Green for Agent Readiness: 70 or more out of 100, with no section below Green. It links to that report, and any company can get its own free report at stringer.ai.

Not to start. MCP, and REST and CLI search and company lookups, answer anonymous callers at the lowest allowance. The rest of the REST API and CLI, and higher limits, need a free account. To sign in, connect an MCP client to https://mcp.decisioninsights.ai/api/mcp-account, run di login from the CLI, or send your access token as Authorization: Bearer YOUR_TOKEN. A token we can't recognize returns 401 invalid_token.

Limits apply per caller, per minute and per day, and rise when you sign in. Each plan's limits are in the table on Agents & MCP, read from the server that enforces them. Every response also states yours: X-DI-Tier, X-RateLimit-Limit and X-RateLimit-Remaining. Going over returns a 429 with Retry-After in seconds.

They return the same records, so pick by where you already are. MCP inside an assistant that speaks it, at https://mcp.decisioninsights.ai/api/mcp-public. REST from your own code, at https://api.decisioninsights.ai/api/public/v1. The CLI at a terminal, with npm i -g @wiretap/decision-insights-cli.

Every CLI command is one MCP call against the same endpoint, so the three cannot answer differently.

Date it yourself. Every record carries datePublished in its JSON-LD and isBasedOn pointing at the primary source it was written from, so you can age anything you retrieve rather than relying on a promise made here.

Attribute a fact to the primary source its record links to, not to this site. Records are summaries, so where a claim matters, follow isBasedOn and read the original.

Four kinds of things: a technology term, a company, an open source project or standard, or a whole new registry, such as Fintech.

If you would like your company added, use For Tech Companies instead. This page is for telling us about something new that would make the knowledge graph more useful.

Something real, in the four markets this site covers: cybersecurity, data centers, network operators, and AI infrastructure. Everything is reviewed before it is admitted, and checked against the rest of the graph rather than on its own.

A glossary term qualifies when it is already in use across those markets, not because one vendor has coined it for one product.

A member of our team reviews it and replies by email. If you name something we already publish, you'll see which entry it is and where to read it before you submit.

We review suggestions in the order they arrive and reply by email once a decision is made. Typically within a few days.

No. Give us your work email and confirm it with the code or link we send. A reviewer reads every suggestion and replies to that address. If you're signed in already, your suggestion goes straight to a reviewer.

Asking to have your own company listed does not need an account either. That is For Tech Companies, and it takes a domain and an email address and nothing else.

Enter a company and the page shows its live directory record twice: the Listing a person reads on the left, and the JSON-LD an agent or crawler receives for that same company on the right.

Both panes come from the same code that builds every listing page, so the inspector never shows a separate, hand-written copy of the record.

They should not disagree, because the left pane is not a separate rendering. It is built by reading fields back out of the exact JSON-LD node printed on the right, not off the organization row, so the two panes are one object shown two ways.

What differs is form, not fact: a property like additionalProperty becomes a plain sentence on the left and prints as the JSON a machine actually parses on the right.

The name or domain you entered doesn't match a public listing, the same result the directory search gives. It says nothing about whether we hold that domain or whether it has been claimed. For Tech Companies answers those questions.

Visit For Tech Companies and enter your company domain there. It tells you whether the company is already listed, unclaimed, or new to us.

The record is read live from the directory at the moment you search. This page's response is then cached for up to 10 minutes, so a change can take that long to show here.

Any company in the directory. The chips below the search box are a handful of examples chosen to show something before you have typed anything; typing a name of your own runs the same lookup /directory/ itself uses.
