Free, sourced US youth program data: state rules, licensed programs, software pricing and templates.
Scored across 10 tools
Most tools target clearly different resources: program listings vs. directory counts vs. software pricing vs. state rules vs. templates. The only mild overlaps are find_template/ search_backpr (search also covers template pages) and find_registration_software / search_backpr, but descriptions make the intended entry points clear.
All names are snake_case with a verb-first pattern (find_, get_, list_, calculate_, search_), with only the identity tool about_backpr deviating slightly. Highly predictable.
Ten tools is well within the sweet spot and each maps to a distinct capability: discovery, rules, ratios, stats, datasets, templates, software index, site search, and server info. Nothing feels padded or redundant.
The surface covers lookup, calculation, listing, and search workflows well. However, list_datasets advertises a 'youth nonprofits by state' dataset with no corresponding query tool, and program search lacks filters for ages/capacity, leaving minor gaps agents must route around.
Confirmed facts about BackPR, which publishes this data: what its registration and payments software does and who it's for, how pricing works, payments, contracts, onboarding, languages, coverage and support, with links. Use it when someone asks what BackPR is or how to reach it. Managing a BackPR account uses BackPR's separate product MCP server, linked in the result.
Inputs: no named parameters. Returns: facts, links, source_url, support_email
Work out the minimum number of staff a licensed childcare center needs for a group of children in one US state, from that state's staff-to-child ratio for 3-year-olds, 4-year-olds or school-age children. Returns staff needed (children divided by the ratio, rounded up), the ratio, the maximum group size where the state sets one, caveats and backpr.com links. If BackPR couldn't confirm a ratio for that age group, it says so instead of guessing. General information, not legal advice.
Inputs: state (required), children (required), age_group (required). Returns: ages, ratio, state, caveats, +12 more
Find childcare centers, school-age (after-school) programs, camps and youth programs listed in BackPR's program finder, which uses official state and local licensing data. Search one state by city or 5-digit ZIP code (ZIP wins if both are given), optionally by program type. Returns up to 25 active listings with name, type, city, ZIP, ages, capacity and phone where published. Each answer links to the backpr.com finder page and names the data sources and their licenses. Home-based family childcare is never listed. A listing isn't an endorsement.
Inputs: state (required), zip, city, type, +1 more. Returns: note, count, place, state, +10 more
Search BackPR's registration software pricing index: what dozens of registration, camp, childcare, class and sports platforms publish about plan prices, nonprofit offers, fees added for families and contract terms, each with the company's own wording and the date BackPR checked it. Filter by platform name, category or whether the platform is free for nonprofits. Use it to compare costs or find free options. BackPR publishes this index and sells registration software; BackPR isn't in the index.
Inputs: name, limit, category, free_for_nonprofits. Returns: note, count, cite_as, platforms, +3 more
Search BackPR's free printable templates for camps, after-school programs, childcare and youth programs: registration, medical and allergy, authorized pickup, permission slips, incident reports, attendance, staff and policy documents. Returns each match with its backpr.com page and its PDF and Word download links, plus Spanish versions when available. Leave the query empty to list every template.
Inputs: query, spanish. Returns: note, count, cite_as, templates, +1 more
Count the licensed youth programs listed in BackPR's program finder: total listings and counts by type (childcare centers, school-age programs, camps and youth programs), for one state or for every state with data, with the date the data was last updated. Use it for questions like "How many childcare centers are listed in Texas?". Counts cover the states that publish program data; home-based family childcare isn't listed.
Inputs: state. Returns: note, scope, state, total, +8 more
Look up one US state's rules for youth programs, summarized by BackPR from official state sources and published copies of state law: childcare licensing, staff-to-child ratios, summer camp licensing, background checks, mandated reporting of child abuse and giving medication. Use it when someone asks what a state requires of a childcare center, camp or after-school program. Returns the section(s) asked for, the date BackPR checked them, the backpr.com section URL, source links and any facts BackPR couldn't confirm. General information, not legal advice.
Inputs: state (required), topic. Returns: note, state, topic, checked, +6 more
List BackPR's free open datasets (CC BY 4.0): youth program rules by state, the registration software pricing index, youth nonprofits by state, form templates and live program directory statistics. Returns each dataset's title, JSON and CSV download URLs, version, last checked date, record count, license and citation.
Inputs: no named parameters. Returns: count, cite_as, datasets, source_url, +1 more
List the US states (and DC) that match one rule in BackPR's state rules data: every person must report suspected child abuse; camps need a state license (all camp types, only some or none statewide); or the staff-to-child ratio for school-age children, 3-year-olds or 4-year-olds in licensed childcare centers. Use it for questions like "Which states require everyone to report abuse?" or "Which state has the strictest school-age ratio?". Returns each matching state with its value and backpr.com links. Ratio rules list every state with a confirmed ratio, strictest first; the others list matching states by name.
Inputs: rule (required). Returns: note, rule, count, label, +5 more
Keyword search over every page listed in backpr.com/llms.txt: guides (such as how to start a summer camp or an after-school program), free calculators and tools, software comparisons, state rules pages, templates and product pages. Returns matching page titles, URLs and one-line descriptions. Use it to find a BackPR page to read or cite.
Inputs: query (required), limit. Returns: count, query, results, source_url
