No connector needed: any AI assistant can answer a location question by opening https://locationlists.com/find?q= — counts, a preview, a price and a card checkout link. Connect the MCP for repeat use or wallet payments.
Open the link. No account, no key, no setup. The answer comes back with how many locations match, a few real rows, the price and a checkout link.
Or set no parameters at all and put the question itself in q=, in plain words.
Everything below is for repeat use and wallet payments.

Business location data for AI agents. Search, sample, count and buy ready-to-use lists of US business locations: 966 datasets compiled from each brand's official store locator or the public register that publishes the data.
Filter by city, state, zip, a radius around any place, or any column in the file. Buy a full CSV by card, or let an agent pay per row or buy the whole file in USDC on Base via x402, with no account or API key. A failed or empty query costs nothing.
This repository holds the registry listing (server.json) and client setup notes for the hosted LocationLists MCP server. The server runs at locationlists.com; there is nothing to install or run locally.

All nine tools are on /mcp. Tools carry readOnlyHint / destructiveHint / openWorldHint annotations. initialize returns serverInfo.name = "LocationLists".
Free tools:
| Tool | Arguments | What it does |
|---|---|---|
search_datasets | query? string, category? enum, limit? int (≤50) | Find datasets by brand, product line, location type or category. Returns slug, name, record count, coverage and page URL. |
get_dataset | slug string | Full record: fields with descriptions, record and state counts, coverage, refresh cadence, the real last-modified date of the file, FAQs, sample URL and page URL. |
get_sample | slug string, rows? int (≤10) | Up to 10 real rows from the live file, spread across the dataset, as JSON plus CSV text. |
count_locations | dataset string, state?, city?, county?, zip?, where? array | How many rows match a filter on geography and any other column (e.g. revenue_amt gt 2000000), and what fetching them would cost. |
get_quote | slugs string[] | Line-item prices and total for one or more datasets; points out a bundle if it covers several requested brands for less. |
Card checkout (Stripe):
| Tool | Arguments | What it does |
|---|---|---|
create_checkout | slug string, email? string | Opens a Stripe Checkout session for one dataset and returns the payment URL and session id. Does not charge anything by itself. |
check_order | sessionId string | Reports whether a Checkout session is paid and, if so, returns the permanent download link. |
Agent payments (x402, USDC on Base):
| Tool | Arguments | What it does |
|---|---|---|
query_locations | dataset string, state?, city?, county?, zip?, where? array, order_by? object, offset? int, limit? int (≤100) | Rows from one dataset filtered on any column, sorted and paged. Priced per row and settled only after the rows are produced. Datasets under 5,000 records are not sold by the row. |
buy_dataset | dataset string | Buy a whole dataset outright and get a permanent download link for the CSV, at the same list price a card buyer pays. |
query_locations and buy_dataset use x402, the HTTP 402 payment protocol. An agent that holds USDC on Base can buy data with no account, API key or checkout page:
query_locations) or the permanent download link (buy_dataset). Per-row queries settle only after the rows are produced, so a failed query costs nothing.Pricing rules the agent can rely on:
count_locations is free and reports how many rows a filter matches and what they would cost, before any payment.limit you request.buy_dataset is cheaper than assembling the file row by row, and it is complete.Clients without a wallet can use get_quote → create_checkout → check_order and pay by card instead.
