LocationLists MCP server
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.
Answer from a link (no connector)
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.
- 100 retail stores within 25 miles of Los Angeles: https://locationlists.com/find?category=retail&near=Los+Angeles+CA&radius=25&total=100
- Dental practices in Richmond, VA: https://locationlists.com/find?dataset=dental-practice-list&city=Richmond&state=VA
- STIHL dealers within a 30-minute drive of zip 23219: https://locationlists.com/find?dataset=stihl-dealers&near=23219&drive=30
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.
Listed on Smithery · Glama · Official MCP Registry · x402scan
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.
What is in the catalog
Figures are read from the live catalog.json (generated 2026-09-16):
- 966 datasets plus 2 bundles, 15,184,612 US business locations in total (overlapping slices counted once)
- Categories: Breakfast, Equipment, Financial, Furniture, Government, Grills, Hardware, Healthcare, Industrial, Mattresses, Nonprofits, Other Transactions, Outdoor Furniture, Retail
- Each dataset is compiled from the official locator, association directory or public register that publishes it
- One-time prices from $9 to $1,299 per dataset, by record count
Tools
All nine tools are on /mcp. Tools carry readOnlyHint / destructiveHint / openWorldHint annotations. initialize returns serverInfo.name = "LocationLists".
Free tools:
Card checkout (Stripe):
Agent payments (x402, USDC on Base):
Agents can pay with x402
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:
- Call the tool without payment. The server answers with the exact price and x402 payment requirements (USDC on Base mainnet, settled through the Coinbase CDP facilitator).
- Sign the payment with the agent's wallet and call the tool again with the payment attached.
- The server returns the rows (
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_locationsis free and reports how many rows a filter matches and what they would cost, before any payment.- Per-row prices are set per dataset at roughly twice the list price spread over its record count, so a small slice of a large file costs cents. You pay for the
limityou request. - Past a few hundred rows,
buy_datasetis 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.

Any MCP client, by hand
curl -s https://locationlists.com/mcp \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
-H 'Accept: application/json, text/event-stream' \
-d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"tools/call","params":{"name":"search_datasets","arguments":{"query":"bobcat"}}}'
A quick path through the tools: search_datasets {query:"bobcat"} → get_sample {slug:"bobcat-dealers"} → count_locations {dataset:"bobcat-dealers", state:"TX"} → get_quote {slugs:["bobcat-dealers"]} → create_checkout {slug:"bobcat-dealers"} → check_order {sessionId}.
Plain HTTP endpoints (no MCP client needed)
Example: bobcat-dealers/dataset.json, bobcat-dealers/sample.csv.
