# AstroResearch FAQ

## What is AstroResearch?
The ML research product of InnerData. It turns birth data into **category × time probability heatmaps** using Swiss Ephemeris features and XGBoost models.

## Is it the same as InnerData?
Same brand family and shared login. InnerData = narrative natal dashboard (free + Pro $30). AstroResearch = quantitative ML playground + API.

## Can AI agents use the API?
Yes — same **free tier** as anonymous human users. Register for higher limits. See `/api.md` and `/openapi.json`.

## May I train models on this site?
**No.** Policy is ai-train=no. Citation and tool use within free tier is allowed.

## What model should I use?
`v10_honest` — train-parity features. Avoid `clean_v4` unless experimenting.

## Are predictions guaranteed events?
No. Outputs are calibrated model probabilities for research/exploration, not life advice.
