An empty answer (for example no email found) counts as an answer. It does not check that the data is right. Calls that failed on looot's side are left out. - Median time: half of the calls answered faster than this, as looot measured them. A 95th percentile is not published yet. - Minimum calls: an endpoint shows numbers from 10 calls, and a provider is ranked from 20 calls. Rows below that say "Not enough calls to rank". - One row per provider: the provider's endpoint with the most calls for the job. Every endpoint is listed in the endpoints table. - Price: what looot charges per call or per result, in US dollars, from a prepaid balance. No subscription and no credits. - Cost per success: the price per call divided by the success rate. A per-result price depends on how many results a call returns, so it has no cost per success. - Source: GET https://api.looot.ai/v1/public-catalog/?stats=1 for each endpoint, and the public catalog for prices and jobs. ## Run maps.local.search from your agent Connect the looot MCP server (https://api.looot.ai/mcp), then paste this prompt: Use looot to run endpointId "job:maps.local.search" with fallback on for my input.
