What you can ask for / No. 01

Find local businesses in your own words

Shops, cafés, studios, and venues, with the things you’d normally call ahead to ask.

Maps know where a place is. They’re vaguer on how many locations it has, who owns it, or whether it takes bookings online. SpecStream checks details like those against the sources that publish them – map listings, review sites, local directories, official registers and the business’s own website – and keeps the source next to each one. Closed for good counts as a detail too.

Requests to start from

Three ways to ask. Each one opens in the workspace, read into parts you can check and change.

  1. A1

    Dental practices in Florida with three or more locations. Leave out practices owned by a dental service organization. Include the website and phone number.

How it reads

Take A1. Before the quote, SpecStream turns it into parts you can check and change. Edit one and the request saves as a new saved version. Anything it can’t support stays visible instead of being quietly dropped.

Use them as conditions, ask for them back, or both; the field picker in the workspace shows which work where. Mark a detail required and a result needs evidence for it before it counts. Optional details can come back empty without sinking the record.

From your agent or your code

Ask for the same list from your agent or your code. Your agent sees the price before it runs, then gets every match with the details you asked for. It works within your spending limit. Connect your agent with MCP.

What it costs

You pay for the results that match, at the rate the quote shows.

  • Standard, $0.10 a match: up to 5 facts to check or return, with no related list.
  • Expanded, $0.30 a match: up to 15 facts, plus one related list, such as a company’s jobs or a creator’s posts. 10 related records a result are included, then 10¢ for each further 10.
  • Deep, $1 a match: anything beyond Expanded.
  • A person’s email, +$0.10; a phone, +$0.25 on top of the rate, when the request asks for one. A likely email counts and says likely. Rows without it pay their rate alone.
  • Your own list, $0.05 a row checked. A row that matches pays its rate instead.

Then what?

Put them on a map and filter by the territory you cover. Or export them to CSV, Excel, JSON, or HTML, share a snapshot with an expiry date, and pick the work up later from wherever you left it.
