Business Lookup API
Find a business's listing record from its name and metro: phone, website, street address and category, ranked with a match score whose threshold prefers an empty answer over the wrong business. Backed by a 74-million-record corpus of US places. The first ask is a deep fetch — seconds, not milliseconds, and we say so — with a 7-day cache that makes every repeat instant.
The listing, with its confidence stated
Metro-scoped search, scored matches, honest misses
Scored matches
Every candidate carries a 0-100 match score; below the threshold we return nothing rather than the wrong business.
Metro-scoped by design
Name + city + state, because a business name without a place is a guess. The city resolves against the numbering-plan geo data we host.
Deep fetch, honestly labelled
First ask queries the corpus remotely in seconds — the response says so and reports the fetch time. Repeats answer from a 7-day cache instantly.
Contact fields included
Phone, website, street address and category in one record, ready to write into a CRM.
