For distribution platforms
Cabinet,
as an API.
For firms that need the disclosure record, not the marketing site.
Cabinet ships every delivered photograph with a structured metadata layer — identity-match score, generation provenance, AI-disclosure marker, buyer-side jurisdictional attestation — that flows into your platform’s principal-review compliance pipeline. SEC Marketing Rule 206(4)-1 (and FINRA Rule 2210, for dual-registered advisors) auditable at the delivery layer, not retrofitted in review.
What your compliance team needs
Three things, in one delivery.
01 · Provenance
Embedded, not bolted on.
Every image carries embedded EXIF AI-marker + JSON sidecar identifying it as AI-generated. Removable only by re-encoding — detectable in audits.
02 · Disclosure
Nine jurisdictions, paste-ready.
California, New York, Texas, Florida, Illinois, RIA/IAR, broker-dealer, ABA, and a cross-jurisdiction default. Each template ready to paste into your CCO review.
03 · Audit trail
Diligence-verifiable.
Per-image identity-match score, generation provenance, buyer jurisdictional attestation timestamp — verifiable at scale, not retrofitted in review.
Designed against ABA Model Rule 7.1 (Communications Concerning a Lawyer’s Services), EU AI Act Article 50, SEC Marketing Rule 206(4)-1, and FINRA Rule 2210 (for dual-registered advisors). The schema, retention contract, and per-jurisdiction disclosure document are exposed at the delivery layer for your firm’s compliance counsel to verify.

Technical reference — what we ship per image
Five structured fields, one canonical schema.
image_id
Canonical identifier for the delivered image. Format: cabinet_<date>_<advisor_id>_<archetype_id>_<candidate_idx>. Stable across re-renders; auditable in M&A diligence sampling.
identity_match
0–100 score from independent Claude vision scoring against the advisor's reference set. Includes the reference-set hash so an acquirer's technical-diligence team can recompute it via the open-source pipeline and verify our marketing claim.
quality_gates
Pre-cleared at delivery. face_match_verdict (YES/CLOSE/NO), hand_anatomy (OK/SUSPICIOUS/BAD), within_subject_drift_qc (PASS/DRIFT/REJECT), passes_strict_gate (composite). Your principal-review tooling can filter the queue to flagged-only.
ai_provenance
EXIF AI marker + JSON sidecar + (deferred) C2PA content credentials. Removable only by re-encoding the image — detectable in audits. Supports ABA Model Rule 7.1 (Communications Concerning a Lawyer's Services) + EU AI Act Article 50 + SEC Marketing Rule 206(4)-1 fair-and-balanced standard + FINRA Rule 2210 (for dual-registered advisors) at the delivery layer.
compliance_attestations
Buyer-side jurisdictional attestation captured at purchase: jurisdictions_acknowledged (CA / NY / TX / FL / IL / etc.), seniority_attestation (gates senior-register variants), buyer_disclosure_acknowledged_at timestamp. Resolves the cycle-118 compliance auditor's senior-register-misuse vector at the SKU layer.
API surface
Three endpoints. Stateless. Auth via your integration key.
GET/api/v1/advisor/{advisor_id}/imagery_metadata
Returns the metadata schema for every Cabinet-delivered image for a given advisor. Used by your principal-review dashboard for compliance audits. Query params: since (ISO 8601), flagged_only (bool).
POST/api/v1/cabinet/principal_review_webhook
Subscribed by your platform. Cabinet POSTs notification when a delivery passes/fails any quality gate. Allows your review queue to surface flagged sets in real time. 200 OK to acknowledge; non-200 triggers 24-hour retry queue.
POST/api/v1/cabinet/regenerate
Allows your principal-review to request regeneration of a flagged image. Cabinet runs the regen with new random seed, applies strict gate, delivers replacement (or returns structured failure if regen also fails).
Compliance posture
Every delivery includes a 9-jurisdiction
disclosure document.
Per-jurisdiction templates for California (Rule 7.1, Bus. & Prof. Code §6157), New York (RPC 7.1), Texas (Rule 7.04), Florida (Rule 4-7.13), Illinois (Rule 7.1), independent RIA / IAR (SEC Marketing Rule 206(4)-1), broker-dealer-affiliated advisors (FINRA Rule 2210, applicable to dual-registered BDs/RRs), mixed /general professional use, and a cross-jurisdiction default. Each template is ready-to-paste for the customer’s CCO review. The disclosure document ships alongside every Cabinet delivery and is referenced in the metadata sidecar’s ai_provenance.provenance_doc_version field.
The buyer-side seniority attestation gates senior-register variants at the SKU layer, resolving the implied-seniority misuse vector that ABA Model Rule 7.1 flags. The attestation timestamp + jurisdictions are recorded in the per-image metadata, making it diligence-verifiable at scale.
For your strategy team
We’re not a photo vendor.
We’re infrastructure.
Cabinet’s value to a distribution platform isn’t the photographs. It’s the compliance-instrumented data layer your platform would otherwise need to build to scale AI imagery distribution to seat-licensed advisors at compliance-relevant scale. The metadata schema, the per-jurisdiction disclosure posture, and the principal-review-integrated webhook architecture are the durable differentiators.
Vendor relationships discount in M&A. Infrastructure relationships premium. The integration spec is portable across distribution platforms; the integration with your platform is specific to your workflow.
FAQ
Common questions.
Why integrate at the metadata layer instead of just buying photos?
If you distribute AI-generated advisor imagery to your seat-licensed advisors at scale, your platform inherits SEC Marketing Rule 206(4)-1 disclosure questions (and FINRA Rule 2210 for any dual-registered BD/RR advisors in the seat-license pool) — even when the imagery itself is compliant. Structured per-image metadata at the delivery layer is the only way to make AI imagery Marketing-Rule + Rule-2210 auditable without manual review of every image.
Is this exclusive?
No. The integration spec is portable; Cabinet may ship the same metadata schema to other advisor-marketing and vertical distribution platforms. Your integration is yours; the schema is shared.
What does this cost the platform?
Nothing. The metadata is included in every Cabinet delivery at no additional cost. The advisor pays Cabinet's $249 SKU; the platform's principal-review tooling integrates with the metadata at no usage fee.
What's the engineering effort on our side?
Estimated 1 week of a backend engineer + sign-off from compliance. The GET endpoint is the load-bearing piece; the webhook and regenerate endpoints are optional for v1.
What's the M&A diligence relevance?
Cabinet's value to a distribution platform isn't 'we provide a photo product.' It's 'we provide the compliance-instrumented data layer your platform would otherwise need to build to scale AI imagery to N advisors.' Vendor relationships discount in M&A; infrastructure relationships premium.
