write = sends, deletes, buys or postsbuy_datasetwrite actionFreeBuy an ENTIRE dataset outright and get a permanent download link for the CSV. Pays once in USDC on Base, at the same list price a human pays by card — no account and no checkout page.\n\nPrefer this over repeated query_locations calls whenever you want most of a file. Metered queries are priced per row and deliberately cost more than the file if you assemble it that way, so past a few hundred rows buying outright is both cheaper and complete. get_dataset (free) gives the price and record count first.
check_orderwrite actionFreeGiven a Stripe Checkout session id (cs_…), reports whether it is paid and, if so, returns the permanent download link for the CSV. Works for whole files, filtered rows and combined (several-dataset) orders.
cotenancyFreeFree, counts only. How two sets of places sit together: the share of set a within radius_miles of set b and of b within radius_miles of a, how many places overlap, and the county / zip / state / metro areas that have both, only a, or only b (top 10 of each named). Each set is a dataset, datasets or category plus filters, the same as count_locations; any US brand or kind of place works, including Overture lists from search_datasets. Example: {"a": {"dataset": "<slug>"}, "b": {"dataset": "<other slug>"}, "radius_miles": 1, "by": "county"}.
count_by_areaFreeFree, counts only. Counts places per county / zip / state / metro for 1 to 4 labeled sets (each a dataset, datasets or category plus filters), and compares them: has (areas with at least one of every listed set) and lacks (areas with none of any listed set). E.g. counties that have set a but no set b; ZIPs where a closure-filtered set exists and another set still has places. Rows that cannot be placed are counted, never read as zero. Example: {"by": "county", "sets": [{"label": "a", "dataset": "<slug>"}, {"label": "b", "dataset": "<other slug>"}], "has": ["a"], "lacks": ["b"], "in_state": "VA"}.
count_locationsFreeFree. How many rows of one dataset match a filter — on geography AND any other column (e.g. nonprofits with revenue_amt gt 2000000, dealers with dealerClass eq 'Elite'). Also reports how many rows were excluded only because a tested column was blank, so a thin column is not mistaken for a small answer; a small or empty answer says how many rows each condition removed and what the column really holds. Returns the exact card price of the matching rows, a link where the user can see and buy them, and the same rows in a cheaper list when one has them. Works for geography: city, state, county, zip, or `near` a place ("Los Angeles, CA"), zip or lat/lng within radius_miles or drive_minutes, on lists with coordinates. get_sample takes the same filters to preview matching rows. The result's `next` says exactly how to get every matching row. To cover several chains near one place, pass datasets or category (e.g. "retail" or "restaurant") and a total instead of dataset: one answer with counts per dataset, duplicates removed and up to 3 preview rows, one price and one file. Use get_dataset first for the column names. Scans the live file, so it can take several seconds on large datasets.
create_checkoutwrite actionFreeOpens a Stripe Checkout session for one dataset and returns the payment URL plus the session id. Give the URL to the user to pay (card, Apple Pay, Google Pay). After payment Stripe emails them a permanent download link; use check_order with the session id to confirm and fetch it. Does not charge anything by itself.
create_query_checkoutwrite actionFreeFor buyers paying by card (no wallet needed): opens a Stripe Checkout for just the rows of one dataset that match a filter, and returns the payment URL to give the user. Takes the same filters as count_locations (state/city/county/zip, `where` on any column, `near`, `order_by`) and up to 10,000 rows. It counts the matches first, so the buyer pays only for rows that exist: the data price is the same per-row price query_locations charges, plus a card processing fee (2.9% + $0.30) added on top and shown separately. After payment the buyer is emailed a CSV download link; check_order with the session id returns it too. No match, a bad column, a distance search on a list without coordinates, or a subset that would cost more than the whole file returns an explanation and creates no checkout — nothing is charged. Agents with a USDC wallet should call query_locations instead. To cover several chains near one place, pass datasets or category and a total instead of dataset: one answer, one price and one checkout for one CSV (source_dataset names each row's dataset, duplicates removed).
email_quotewrite actionFreeFree. Emails the user a plain-English quote for exactly this request: how many rows match, the card price, a few of the matches and a card checkout link, so they can pay later, from any device, or forward it to whoever holds the card. Takes the same arguments as count_locations: dataset, or datasets / category with total, plus filters. BEFORE calling: ask the user for their email and whether to send it. Pass an email only if the user gave it to you in this conversation; never guess or invent one. Nothing is charged and nothing is bought; the price is checked again when they open the link.
get_datasetFreeFull record for one dataset: fields with descriptions, record and state counts, coverage, whether it can be searched by distance, advertised refresh cadence AND the real last-modified date of the file, FAQs, sample URL and the dataset's page on locationlists.com.
get_quoteFreeLine-item prices and total for a list of dataset slugs. If a bundle covers several requested brands for less, it says so.
get_sampleFreeFree. Real rows from the live file, as JSON plus CSV text. Show these to the user so they can judge the fields and quality. Without filters: up to 10 rows spread across the whole dataset. With filters (the same ones count_locations takes: city, state, county, zip, `where` on any column, or `near` a place such as {place: "Los Angeles, CA", radius_miles: 25} or {place: "Richmond, VA", drive_minutes: 30} on lists with coordinates): how many rows match, plus up to 3To preview several chains at once, pass datasets or category (e.g. "retail" or "restaurant") instead of slug: one combined answer with counts per dataset, duplicates removed and up to 3 rows across them.
query_locationsFreeReturn matching rows from one dataset, filtered on ANY of its columns — state/city/county/zip shortcuts plus `where` conditions with numeric comparisons (e.g. [{field:"revenue_amt",op:"gt",value:2000000}]), sorted with `order_by` and paged with `offset`. `near` ({place:"Topeka, KS"}, a zip, or lat+lng, optional radius_miles or drive_minutes) returns the closest rows first with distance_miles, on lists with coordinates — so "10 banks closest to Topeka" is one call for 10 rows. get_dataset lists the columns; count_locations (free) tells you how many rows match and what fetching them costs before you pay. Priced per row in USDC via x402 and settled only after the rows are produced, so a failed call costs nothing. The rate is derived from the dataset: roughly 2x its list price spread over its record count, so a small slice of a big file is cents. By default you get and pay for every matching row, up to 100 to 1,000 rows per call depending on how wide the dataset's rows are (count_locations reports maxRowsPerCall); pass limit for fewer. Call it without payment first: the result is an x402 PaymentRequired quote with the exact amount, and nothing is charged until you retry with payment. Datasets under 5,000 records are not sold by the row — buy those files outright. To cover several chains near one place, pass datasets or category and a total (up to 1,000 rows) instead of dataset: one answer, one price and one file, with source_dataset naming each row's dataset and duplicates removed; inside a combined answer, small datasets are sold by the row too.
relate_locationsFreeFree. How one set of places relates to another, by straight-line distance. The base set is the usual dataset / datasets / category plus filters; relate.anchor is the other set, given the same way. Modes: nearest (each base row's k<=3 nearest anchors with miles), count_within (rank base rows by how many anchors are within radius_miles), within_any (base rows with at least one anchor within radius_miles), none_within (base rows with no anchor within radius_miles). Mode next_best (no anchor, needs the base set's state) ranks the candidate NEW sites in that state by how well they match what the base list's own locations typically have nearby, blended with an estimated market capture; every candidate names its matched factors. Returns counts for both sets (rows without coordinates are left out and counted), summary stats, up to 3 preview rows, the price of the full answer (base rows plus the anchor rows named, each at its dataset's per-row rate, one card fee) and how to buy it with query_locations or create_query_checkout using the same arguments. Example: {"dataset": "<slug>", "state": "VA", "relate": {"mode": "nearest", "k": 1, "anchor": {"dataset": "<other slug>"}}}.
request_listFreeAsk LocationLists to add a list we do not have yet. Use it when search_datasets finds nothing that fits, or the user wants a brand, place or kind of business we do not publish. BEFORE calling: ask the user whether to send the request, and ask for their email so we can tell them when the list is ready. Pass an email only if the user gave it to you in this conversation; never guess or invent one. Called with neither email nor email_declined, it sends nothing and asks for the email. The request goes to the LocationLists team, the same place as the request box on locationlists.com. We add new datasets every day and prioritize requested ones; there is no promised date. Free, nothing is charged.
search_datasetsFreeFind LocationLists datasets by brand, kind of business or industry (e.g. 'bobcat', 'restaurants', 'bank branches', 'dental practices', 'hardware stores'). Returns EVERY matching dataset, best first, with slug, name, business type, industry, record count, coverage, whether it can be searched by distance (distanceSearch), and page URL. A kind of business or an industry in the query matches every dataset of that kind, and `kinds` names it as a category that count_locations can combine into one answer. Each brand or chain is its own dataset. After finding one you can filter it by city, state, zip, any column, or a radius around a place (e.g. within 25 miles of Los Angeles, CA) when it has coordinates: use count_locations for how many match, and get_sample with the same filters to preview matching rows. Both are free. To cover several chains near one place, pass datasets or category and a total to count_locations, and you get one answer, one price and one file.
send_feedbackwrite actionFreeSend a message to the LocationLists team: wrong or missing data in a dataset, something that did not work, a pricing question, an idea, or anything else. Ask the user before sending and use their words. Ask for their email so the team can reply, and pass it only if they gave it; never guess or invent one. Called with neither email nor email_declined, it sends nothing and asks for the email. Free.
