Practical use

When it helps

  • Show a competitor’s official PBs and rankings in a Cubify profile.
  • Verify a WCA ID before starting a comparison or competition report.
  • Give an AI assistant primary-source context rather than guessing from a name.

Data notes

Use it responsibly

  • Pass a canonical WCA ID, never a person name.
  • Personal-record values use official WCA result units.
  • Activity is returned when it is available from the WCA source.
