Aletheca

Integrators

Bring the audience. We will do the paperwork.

Aletheca is a foundation. Any site whose readers want a record can embed the whole discipline behind its own buttons, keep its interface and its domain, and take a share of the revenue on every request it originates.

  1. 01

    Agree the terms

    Scope, surfaces, and the revenue share rate. The rate is set at integration by agreement rather than by a published grid, because a general-interest news site and a specialist archive are not bringing the same thing to a request.

  2. 02

    Take a signed handoff

    Aletheca issues a short-lived signed attribution token. The server verifies its partner, expiry, and signature before a request is credited; a public slug or query parameter cannot claim attribution.

  3. 03

    Embed or call

    Use the script tag for public status and hosted action links, or render the public REST reads yourself. Writes remain in Aletheca's authenticated composer and checkout.

  4. 04

    Read the ledger

    Request and event endpoints are the mounted status surface today. Retrying outbound partner webhooks and a partner-managed endpoint registry are not mounted yet.

How the share is calculated

The share is a percentage of Aletheca’s own platform fee — the filing and follow-up line, and the embargo surcharge where one applies. It is never a share of postage, print, or agency fees.

That boundary is deliberate. Sharing a cut of postage would mean a partner earns more when a request goes certified with a return receipt than when it goes by email, and that is an incentive pointed directly away from the requester’s interest. Pass-through costs pass through.

The commercial policy is to accrue a share only when money is collected, and to reverse it on refund. The automated partner accrual ledger, dashboard, Stripe Connect payout job, and payout API are not mounted yet; partner terms are reconciled manually until those controls exist.

Worked example

  • Commission paid by the reader$29.64
  • Certified mail + return envelope (pass-through)− $14.64
  • Aletheca platform fee$15
  • Partner share at 15%$2.25

A portal or email request has no pass-through at all, so the same 15% is $2.25 on a $15 request. The rate is what varies between integrations; the base it applies to never does.

Current integrations

These are the hand-maintained commercial records currently published by Aletheca. They are not a live payout ledger or evidence of an automated transfer.

  • UAP Nexus uap.nexus

    live

    The first integration, and the reason Aletheca exists as its own property. UAP Nexus was going to build a FOIA engine into a sightings catalog; it embeds this one instead, and gets the whole pipeline — drafting, payment, the statutory clock, publication — behind its own buttons.

    • Case pages carry a 'Request the records' button that opens the composer pre-filled from the case
    • A campaign panel on the disclosure timeline
    • The Docket embedded at /foia, filtered to UAP subjects

What we ask in return

    The response is published

    Whatever it says. A partner cannot embed the pipeline and then ask for an unflattering release to be suppressed — the archive's third clause is not negotiable per integration.

    The refusal policy applies

    Requests originated through your site pass the same review gate, including the rule against targeting private individuals.

    Attribution runs both ways

    Your site is credited on every request it originates, permanently and publicly. In exchange, link the request page rather than reproducing the ledger as your own.
