# Get a guest's brand-suitability exposure profile

`GET /v1/podcasts/guests/{id}/suitability`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://api.particle.pro`
- URL: `https://api.particle.pro/v1/podcasts/guests/{id}/suitability`
- Auth: one of:
  - API key in header `X-API-Key`
  - HTTP bearer

Returns the distribution of IAB Tech Lab brand-suitability tiers across the podcasts a guest has appeared on, plus the most-frequently flagged categories observed in those shows. This measures the guest's exposure across the shows they've appeared on — not a verdict on the guest themselves.

## Path parameters

- `id` string, required: Person identifier — person slug (recommended), knowledge-graph entity slug, or encoded UUID

## Response `200`

OK

## Other responses

- `402`: Payment Required. Read error_code. payment_required is the x402 path: either a keyless request being challenged — pay $0.04 in USDC per request (requirements in the PAYMENT-REQUIRED header) or send a pp_ API key — or a supplied payment that failed settlement (details in the PAYMENT-RESPONSE header; retry the same signature before signing a new one). See https://docs.particle.pro/x402. Any other code means the credential was accepted but does not cover this request (a plan or session gate such as premium_required or paid_plan_confirmation_required); its resolve says how to obtain access, and no payment header is sent.
- `default`: Error
