Guia Pix
An editorial guide to Brazil's instant payment scheme (Pix), built for product, engineering, legal and UX teams at payment service providers. We transcribe official texts, version them and cite every claim back to the Banco Central do Brasil (BCB).
We are not the Banco Central, not a Pix participant and not an official source. The corpus and the citations are in Portuguese; this English section explains the project and points to the right pages.

How to read a page
- Fact — transcription or metadata extracted from the official document (title, number, validity, citation, snapshot hash).
- Guia Pix reading — plain-language interpretation by role, written and reviewed by AI (no human review, and labelled as such), always citing the article and separated from the fact.
- Versions and as-of dates — every page lets you pick a date and shows what was in force then.
