  title: Shelfforce API
  version: 1.0.0
  description: >-
    Shelfforce turns shelf photos into structured retail data. Submit images for
    AI-powered shelf analysis, manage tasks and inventory, and retrieve
    compliance and share-of-shelf reports.


    All API requests require a Bearer token (API key with `sf_live_` prefix).
    Rate limits are enforced per tier using a fixed 60-second window.
    Idempotency is supported on POST and PATCH via the `Idempotency-Key` header
    (24h TTL).


    1 credit = 1 image analysis. Batch submissions consume 1 credit per image
    (max batch size depends on plan tier: 20-200). Tag analyses with
    `externalId` and `metadata` for B2B tracking, and use `callbackUrl` for
    per-request completion notifications.
