# Ownership API: Search by VIN, Person, Address, or ZIP
URL: /docs/changelogs/2026-08-18
LLM index: /llms.txt
Description: Ownership is live, with all four lookup modes in the dashboard and link-confidence fields on every VIN result.

## Added

- [Ownership](/docs/products/ownership) is live. Look up who's linked to a vehicle by VIN, person, address, or ZIP — each with its own input fields in the dashboard, so you're not guessing what a mode expects.
- Every Ownership VIN result now carries `first_observed`, `last_observed`, and `source_count` — enough to judge whether a link is current and how many sources agree on it, before you act on it.

## Improved

- Clearer field labels and a cleaner owner-details table in the dashboard.

## Notes

- Enterprise only, for now.
