Use the observatory data directly.
Public-interest exploration needs the underlying data to be inspectable. These JSON and CSV endpoints expose the same public records that power profiles, rankings, reports, and the evidence ledger.
Business formation context routes to 17 rows with JSON, CSV, notebook, and citation reuse.
All public rows are available for audit, download, or reuse.

Use this endpoint's dataset-specific filters rather than market scope.
Business formation context declares source custody in its endpoint contract.
Business formation context has no shared market-report parameter.
