Certificates are evidence, not the whole truth
A certificate of insurance can show coverage evidence, but it may not prove every policy fact. Requirements may ask for endorsements, limits, waiver posture, additional insured language, or specific dates.
A compliance API needs to compare what the certificate says against what the requirement demands, while preserving what is missing or unsupported.
Why FastScript fits COI compliance
FastScript already tracks schema fields, evidence, unresolved states, conflict states, and source role. Those primitives are the heart of COI compliance.
The extension can validate whether required fields are present, whether evidence is sufficient, and whether the result should pass, fail, or require review.
The API boundary
PolDex does not need to become a certificate management platform. It can return compliance-ready evidence and let customer systems handle workflow, assignments, renewals, and communication.
That keeps the product focused while still making it valuable inside procurement, vendor compliance, real estate, construction, and broker operations.
