Sample matching businesses
search_businessesReturn a sample of matching businesses with industry, location and data-quality signals. Contact details (name, company, email, phone, address) are never returned by this tool — it shows what exists and how reachable it is, not who to call.
Input Schema
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| city | No | City name, e.g. "Chicago", or "London" with country GB. | |
| limit | No | How many rows to return, 1-25. Defaults to 10. | |
| state | No | US state, either full name ("Texas") or two-letter code ("TX"). US only. | |
| country | No | Country, as an ISO code ("US", "GB", "CA") or a name ("United Kingdom"). Omit to count every country. Coverage outside the US is much smaller. Countries with data: United States (US), United Kingdom (GB), Canada (CA), United Arab Emirates (AE), Australia (AU), India (IN). | |
| industry | No | Industry or business type in plain words. Everyday wording is resolved to the stored categories, and `matchedIndustry` in the response says which one. | |
| no_website | No | true = only businesses whose Google Maps listing shows no website of their own (read from the listing; a Facebook-only listing counts as none). For questions like 'restaurants in Dubai without a website' or 'plumbers in Texas with no website'. |
