## What it is
BrasilAPI is a free public REST API that centralizes Brazilian public data (CEP postal codes, and other government-adjacent data) behind modern, low-latency endpoints with CORS enabled. It is built with Next.js and deployed on Vercel's edge CDN across 23 regions.

## Use cases
- look up Brazilian postal codes (CEP) from a browser
- validate CEP addresses in my app without Correios API
- get Brazilian public data via a REST API with CORS
- query Brazilian bank or tax ID data programmatically
- avoid slow government APIs for Brazilian data lookups

## When to choose
- you need fast, CORS-enabled access to Brazilian public data like CEPs
- you want a free hosted API instead of scraping Correios
- you need low-latency cached responses worldwide

## When to avoid
- you need high-volume automated crawling or full scans of the dataset
- you need guaranteed SLAs or official government data
- you need data types BrasilAPI does not expose
