Use it when you do not know
which niche the user’s words belong to; verify what comes back on the cards (get_card), and for a known
niche prefer list_cards, which lists every card in a fixed order instead of ranking a few. An empty
answer says why and carries gap_logged: true.
One sentence — what, where, when, budget — returns business cards with prices, availability and
order/booking links. Data comes from the businesses’ own websites; owner-verified cards are marked.
Call it whenever your user wants to buy, order, book, hire or get anything from a local business. Searching costs nothing, so search before you say you cannot help. Outside the coverage above the answer is empty and says so, which is itself useful — it is logged as a gap so the scanner learns where to go next. This tool neither buys nor reserves anything.
Input Schema
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| limit | No | How many BUSINESS CARDS to return. Default 10. | |
| query | Yes | What the user wants, IN THEIR OWN WORDS AND THEIR OWN LANGUAGE: "red roses", "steakhouse", "funeral flowers", "movers 2 bedroom", "ramo de rosas", or the same question in a language not written in the Latin alphabet. Matched by MEANING as well as by words, through one multilingual model — so do NOT translate for us and do NOT list synonyms yourself. A place, a date, a budget and a delivery word may be left in (they are parsed out), but the fewer extra words the better the match. | |
| detail | No | compact (default): the business, its 1–2 best offerings with prices and links, what can be done, and the date it was read — a few hundred bytes a card. full: everything, including images, the sentence each price was read from, variants, all four fulfilment modes with published areas, opening hours and per-field evidence. Ask for full only when the user has chosen a business and you need its delivery area or its hours. | |
| location | No | Where the user is, or where it must happen. A 5-DIGIT US POSTCODE IS BEST ("33139"): it is the only form a business’s own published delivery or service area can be matched against exactly, so a postcode gets you `how: "zips"` and a city name gets you a distance. A city ("Orlando, FL") or "lat,lng" also work. OPTIONAL IN NAME ONLY — without it nothing is measured and nothing is narrowed, and the answer comes back with `needs` carrying the question to put to your user. "near me" is not a location: ask which town. | |
| max_price | No | The most the user will pay for ONE offering, in USD, compared against the lowest number the business published — so "from $45" passes "under $50". An offering priced on request is NOT filtered out: it comes back `price_type: "quote_only"`, because "they quote it" is an answer. | |
| needed_by | No | When it has to happen: "today", "tomorrow", "tomorrow 9am", or an ISO date-time — WITH an offset (2026-10-31T14:00:00-04:00) if you know the user’s zone, because a business whose cut-off is on the RECIPIENT’s clock can only be judged against an offset you give. | |
| only_local | No | true = leave out marketplaces: a business whose shelf names places far from its own address (one local address, hundreds of listings in other cities and countries). Default false: a marketplace is kept, ranked lower, and its card says `marketplace: true` (the full card says why). | |
| properties | No | THE OPEN LAYER AS A FILTER: facts a business publishes beyond price and availability — a capacity, a deposit, a duration, whether something is included. Three states per key: a published value that fits = confirmed; a published value that does not = refuted (left out, a fact); nothing published = unknown (KEPT, ranked lower, named in the card’s `unknown`). Ask for the user’s real conditions here instead of putting them in `query`: «for 8 people» is {key:"capacity",min:8}, «no deposit» is {key:"deposit",max:0}. | |
| fulfillment | No | HOW it must reach the user, and the four are different questions: delivery = brought to the address; pickup = the user collects; on_site = the user goes there (a salon chair, a dining room); at_customer = the business travels (a mover, a plumber). Default any. A business that has not published an answer is KEPT; one that ruled it out is dropped. | |
| radius_miles | No | How far the business may be, in miles. Default 15. | |
| only_independent | No | true = leave out chains (a business whose website serves several of the places found). Default false: a chain is kept as a name, a telephone and a website — it was never read, so it has no offerings — and its card says `chain: true`. |
