Partial The UI and LLM-based claim analysis are easy to vibe-code, but checking claims against public records depends on jurisdiction-specific datasets that are fragmented, paywalled, or legally restricted, and background-check-style products carry compliance obligations.
What it would actually take: The architecture is a claim extractor (LLM), then lookups against registries such as company, property, court and sanctions records, then an evidence store. The hard parts are licensed record access per country, entity-matching accuracy to avoid false matches, and legal review (background-check and consumer-reporting rules), which needs a compliance or legal specialist.
