One API, one schema, one query pattern across the full chemical safety landscape:
| What | Count |
|---|---|
| Compounds | 1,879 (organic, inorganic, mixtures) |
| Materials | 959 (structural, surface, chemical, environmental, advanced) |
| Products | 1,262 (8 consumer categories) |
| Exposure contexts | 19 (human_adult, human_infant, dermal, oral, environmental...) |
| Regulatory agencies | 202 |
| Fragrance ingredients | 2,325 |
Other sources pick one agency and call it the answer. ALETHEIA shows the full distribution: mean, standard deviation, confidence interval, consensus strength. You see the shape of the evidence, not a collapsed point.
19 exposure contexts mean the same compound gets different risk profiles depending on who is exposed and how. Formaldehyde at workplace inhalation levels is a different question than formaldehyde in a baby shampoo at 0.1% concentration.
An adult dermal exposure, an infant oral exposure, and an aquatic environmental release are three fundamentally different risk scenarios. ALETHEIA models all of them from the same compound record.
No other chemical safety API provides context-dependent risk synthesis.
Downloaded PDFs and spreadsheets go stale the moment you save them. ALETHEIA stays current:
Regulatory landscapes shift constantly. IARC reclassifies compounds. EPA updates IRIS assessments. EFSA revises ADIs. Your data layer should reflect that — automatically.
