## Questions this business answers
### What is Tunnel and who operates it?
Tunnel is an AI infrastructure company operated by STILL BETA TECH SRL in Moldova. It builds tools for business discovery, AI visibility, authenticated agent-to-business communication, merchant verification and human authorization of consequential API actions. Its registered address is str. Mihai Viteazul 28, Hulboaca, MD-2093, mun. Chișinău, Moldova. Tunnel can be contacted at contact@tunnelpowered.com or +373 60 831 513.

### Which products does Tunnel provide?
Tunnel provides Automatic AI GEO & SEO, Landline, a Counterparty Verification API, signed verification records, no-website business listings and the in-development Flamecloak product. AI GEO focuses on machine-readable content and AI visibility; Landline provides authenticated agent messaging; the verification API supplies structured merchant facts; and Flamecloak is designed to require named-person approval for selected high-risk API actions.

### Which AI assistants and agent protocols does Tunnel support?
Tunnel measures visibility across ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok and Perplexity. Its knowledge base is available through MCP Streamable HTTP, plain HTTP and Agent2Agent v1.0. The MCP endpoint is https://api.tunnelpowered.com/api/mcp, and the public API contract is available at https://api.tunnelpowered.com/openapi.json. A2A supports read skills, while business messaging uses authenticated MCP or HTTP interfaces.

### Can Tunnel help a business that does not have a website?
Yes. Tunnel can create and host a machine-readable business record from an Instagram handle, TikTok account, Facebook page or phone number. The record receives a permanent tunnelpowered.com URL and can include identity, location, services, prices, opening hours, delivery area, contact channels, JSON-LD, FAQ, knowledge-base, sitemap and llms.txt resources. The free tier covers one business without a card or expiry.

### How does Tunnel verify businesses?
Tunnel offers automated and human verification with different claims. Automated verification is free on every plan and requires at least two independent proofs of control over cited channels, but it does not establish identity or service reality. Human verification is available on paid plans and checks legal identity, the person behind the business, channel control and service reality; one Tunnel employee performs the review and another approves it.

### Does Tunnel verification guarantee quality, licensing or solvency?
No. Tunnel explicitly states that verification is not an endorsement of service quality, solvency, licensing or business performance. Automated verification proves control of cited channels, while human verification adds checks of legal identity and service reality. Attestations include their limitations and expiry dates, use compact EdDSA-signed JWS, and are recorded in a public hash-chained transparency log.

### How does Tunnel protect personal data?
Tunnel states that it does not sell personal data and does not use tracking or advertising cookies. It stores passwords as cryptographic hashes, does not store full card numbers, and deletes identity documents after a human-verification decision. Public knowledge-base reads are logged for 180 days using pseudonymous data without storing the IP address or query text. STILL BETA TECH SRL identifies itself as the GDPR data controller.

### Does Tunnel control how AI platforms rank or recommend businesses?
No. Tunnel measures how businesses appear in selected AI answers but does not control third-party AI rankings, mentions, citations, retrieval or recommendations. Its terms state that it does not guarantee specific AI rankings, mentions, traffic or results. The visibility methodology is an internal measurement based on five queries sent to five assistants with web search enabled.

### What does Tunnel Landline do?
Landline gives a business an MCP and REST messaging address that registered AI agents can use to start conversations. Reading a business record is unauthenticated, but writing requires a registered agent identity and bearer token. Messages go to a human-readable Tunnel dashboard inbox, and replies return in the same conversation. Landline applies daily quotas, burst limits and fan-out alarms, and does not reveal the business phone number or email.

### What is Flamecloak and is it available now?
Flamecloak is an in-development gateway control for selected high-risk API actions such as bulk exports, payments, deletions and AI-agent actions. It runs inside an organisation’s network alongside an existing proxy or gateway, begins in observe mode, and can hold an individual action until a named entitled person approves it with a passkey. It is not currently available for download or trial and has no announced launch date.

### Does Tunnel store customer traffic or data for Flamecloak?
The Flamecloak page states that customer traffic does not pass through Tunnel’s company infrastructure and that Tunnel does not retain a copy of that traffic. Flamecloak is designed to run inside the customer’s own network. Its stated limitation is that it cannot protect data accessed directly from a database without passing through the protected API gateway route.

### How can a platform use Tunnel to check a business counterparty?
A platform can use Tunnel’s API to retrieve four public facts about a listed business: verification status, verified channels and latest proof date, merchant record-confirmation status and profile completeness. With merchant permission, it can also receive one-year commitment history and human-response metrics. Access uses OAuth 2.1 client credentials; the bearer token lasts one hour. Tunnel does not provide compliance certification, delivery proof, ratings or rankings.
