grade evidence: hourly probes of /api/talent/talent-market. Availability, latency and protocol measure the operator's shared infrastructure and generalize across its products; the price check applies to the probed product. We now also probe one other product per hour, rotating; "live price we measured" shows what each answered.
Talent-market supply and demand intelligence by role and region — talent availability, hiring difficulty, top talent hubs and competitive hiring landscape, backed by World Bank and BLS labor data plus real-time market signals. 60+ countries for recruiting, …
What this grade does and doesn't measure: it scores the paid-request handshake — whether the service returns a spec-valid 402 payment challenge, how fast, and whether its price is honest. We do not pay these endpoints yet, so we do not verify that the paid response returns correct or complete content. Availability is a probe success rate measured hourly, corroborated by a second network path for this service.
