# Overview

[ComplyCube](https://www.complycube.com/) is a cloud-based API platform for automating Identity Verification (ID\&V), Anti-Money Laundering (AML), and Know Your Customer (KYC) compliance workflows.

Our API follows REST principles, with predictable resource-oriented URLs and standard [HTTP response codes](/documentation/api-reference/errors.md#http-status-codes). All responses, including [errors](/documentation/api-reference/errors.md), are returned in JSON.

We’ve designed our documentation to be easy to follow. It is grouped by resource type and offers practical examples.

If you’re just getting started, begin with the [user guide](https://docs.complycube.com/documentation/) for an overview of the core concepts and workflows.

{% hint style="info" %}
As a general guideline, if a property has an empty or null value, we drop it from the JSON unless there’s a strong semantic reason for its existence.
{% endhint %}
