Numbers (VINs), extract official technical specifications, and audit active safety recalls directly from U.S. NHTSA / Department of Transportation APIs.\n\n### Enterprise B2B Value Proposition (US NHTSA Vehicle VIN Decoder & Safety Recall Auditor)\n- **Target B2B Buyers:** Auto InsurTechs, Commercial Fleet Managers, Automotive Marketplaces, and Lending Underwriters.\n- **Zero External API Keys Required:** Connects directly to authoritative government, regulatory, and financial primary registries with built-in retry/backoff and deterministic schema normalization.\n- **Quantitative Scoring & RAG Briefs:** Every record is enriched with a quantitative 0-100 risk/viability score and an LLM-ready Markdown executive brief (`Vehicle VIN Decoded & Recall Audited`).\n- **Backend Proxy Secret Injection:** RapidAPI Studio and Zyla API Hub inject `Authorization: Bearer ` invisibly at the proxy layer when forwarding synchronous calls to `https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/b2b-quant-apis~us-nhtsa-vehicle-vin-recall-auditor/run-sync-get-dataset-items`.\n- **Marketplace Categories:** RapidAPI `Logistics` | Zyla API Hub `Logistics & Shipping`.\n- **Subscription Tiers (USD):** `BASIC` ($0.00/mo, 15 req/mo hard cap), `PRO` ($19.00/mo, 1,000 req/mo + $0.02/extra), `ULTRA` ($49.00/mo, 5,000 req/mo + $0.015/extra), `MEGA` ($149.00/mo,
