# Jewish Ground-Truth Intelligence (J-GTI) API by TATEH

> Sourced, dated answers about Jewish life for AI assistants: kosher certification from certifying agencies' own lists, kosher and Jewish places in New York, dishes from restaurants' own menus, local professionals, Jewish events, and Shabbat / holiday times and zmanim for any place. Every answer carries status, sources and freshness. "unknown" never means "not kosher". Not a halachic ruling.
