Tools

• call_business

  Place a conversational voice-AI phone call to a business on a consumer's behalf and return a structured answer. THE differentiated capability: reach the ~60M long-tail SMBs that have NO API and NO booking page — only a phone number. An AI agent cannot pick up a phone and hold a conversation; this tool does. Give a plain-language objective; the voice AI navigates the call and extracts the answer. Business-directed (B2B), far less restricted than calling consumers — but the compliance gate still enforces recording consent per jurisdiction. Async: returns a call handle; poll get_outcome for the transcript + extracted fields. WHEN TO USE: Use when the target business has NO booking URL and NO API — only a phone number — and the consumer asked the agent to reach them (e.g. 'call this plumber and ask if they can come Tuesday', 'ask the salon if they take walk-ins this afternoon'). Also use to confirm details a booking page doesn't expose (real-time availability, custom quotes). WHEN NOT TO USE: Do NOT use when the business has a booking URL — use import_booking_url + schedule_appointment (cheaper, faster, deterministic). Do NOT use for calls to consumers/individuals (this tool is for reaching businesses). Do NOT use for marketing or telemarketing — the compliance gate and the B2B-only framing reject that. COST: $0.5 per_call LATENCY: ~45000ms EXECUTION: async_by_default (use get_outcome to retrieve result)

  shallow
• capture_lead

  Structured intake of a prospect into an SMB's funnel with validation, enrichment hooks, and deduplication. Inserts into the SMB's CRM or direct-booking pipeline if available. EXAMPLE USER QUERIES THAT MATCH THIS TOOL: user: "Tell smb_xyz I'm interested and want a callback" -> call capture_lead({"smb_id": "smb_xyz", "prospect": {"name": "Jane", "phone": "+15551234567", "email": "jane@example.com"}, "source": "agent"}) WHEN TO USE: Use when a potential customer has expressed interest in an SMB's service and you want to ensure they are registered in the SMB's pipeline for follow-up. WHEN NOT TO USE: Do not use for confirmed bookings — use schedule_appointment. Do not use for bulk list imports. COST: $0.05 per_lead LATENCY: ~600ms EXECUTION: sync_fast (use get_outcome to retrieve result)

  shallow
• check_compliance

  Free, instant pre-flight for the compliance gate. Runs the SAME TCPA / GDPR / CASL / CAN-SPAM / 10DLC gate that send_message and call_business run — but in preview mode, so NO message is sent and NO state changes. Tells you whether a (recipient, channel, message_type, content) send would be permitted BEFORE you pay for it, and if not, names the exact rule and how to remediate. Use it to de-risk a paid send the same way check_booking_link de-risks a paid booking. EXAMPLE USER QUERIES THAT MATCH THIS TOOL: user: "Is it legal to text this US number a 20%-off promo?" -> call check_compliance({"recipient_id": "+14045550200", "content": "20% off this week only!", "channel": "sms", "message_type": "marketing", "country_code": "US"}) user: "Before you email the dentist, make sure it's allowed" -> call check_compliance({"recipient_id": "office@dentist.example", "content": "Do you accept Cigna? Following up on my request.", "message_type": "follow_up"}) -> then send_message({"recipient": {"id_type": "email", "id_value": "office@dentist.example"}, "message_type": "follow_up", "content": {"body": "Do you accept Cigna? Following up on my request."}}) WHEN TO USE: Call this the moment before send_message or call_business when there is any chance the send is regulated — anything tagged marketing, any SMS to a US number (10DLC), any message to an EU/UK (GDPR) or Canadian (CASL) recipient, or any content you are unsure about. It is free and sub-100ms, so run it as a guard: if legal=true, proceed to send_message with confidence; if legal=false, fix the cited blocker instead of burning a paid, rejected send. WHEN NOT TO USE: Do not treat a legal=true as a permanent license — the gate re-runs at send time, so a fresh opt-out between preview and send still blocks. Do not use it to check two-party voice recording consent (that is evaluated at call time in the voice adapter, not here). It is not a substitute for send_message; it never delivers anything. COST: free - no key required LATENCY: ~15ms

  shallow
• escalate_to_human

  Hand off an in-flight task to a human operator with a full context bundle: transcript, prior actions, identifiers, and a recommended next step. EXAMPLE USER QUERIES THAT MATCH THIS TOOL: user: "I'm stuck — get a human at smb_xyz to call me back" -> call escalate_to_human({"smb_id": "smb_xyz", "reason": "agent_blocked", "summary": "Cannot resolve via automated channels"}) WHEN TO USE: Use when automated resolution has failed after channel-fallback exhaustion, when the task requires human judgment, or when the customer has explicitly requested human contact. WHEN NOT TO USE: Do not use as a first resort. Escalate only after automated resolution attempts. COST: $0.2 per_escalation LATENCY: ~2000ms EXECUTION: async_by_default (use get_outcome to retrieve result)

  shallow
• find_business

  Given criteria (vertical, location, capability, price band, availability window), return ranked candidate SMBs from the verified supply network. Returns only curated, verified, transactable businesses — not raw directory results. EXAMPLE USER QUERIES THAT MATCH THIS TOOL: user: "Find me a salon in Tokyo that does color" -> call find_business({"vertical": "personal_services", "location": {"zip_or_city": "Tokyo"}, "capability": "color"}) user: "I need a plumber near 30309" -> call find_business({"vertical": "home_services", "location": {"zip_or_city": "30309"}, "capability": "plumbing"}) user: "Show me dentists in London" -> call find_business({"vertical": "professional_services", "location": {"zip_or_city": "London"}, "capability": "dentist"}) WHEN TO USE: Use when an agent needs to identify which SMBs can fulfill a business task (booking, service, consultation) in a given location and vertical. Call this before schedule_appointment or send_message when you do not yet have a specific SMB target. WHEN NOT TO USE: Do not use as a general directory or browsing surface. Do not use when you already have a specific verified SMB identifier. Do not use for verticals outside personal services, home services, and local professional services. COST: from $0.01 per_call (see preview_cost for exact) LATENCY: ~200ms

  shallow
• get_outcome

  Retrieve the final OutcomeReceipt for a completed operation. WHEN TO USE: Use after get_status returns success/failure/partial to retrieve the full result with cost and reason codes. WHEN NOT TO USE: Do not use for operations still in pending/executing state — use get_status first. COST: $0.001 per_call LATENCY: ~50ms

  shallow
• get_status

  Query the current state of any in-flight async operation by operation_id. WHEN TO USE: Use to poll the state of a pending_async operation when no webhook callback has arrived or to check progress. WHEN NOT TO USE: Do not poll more frequently than once per 10 seconds — use webhook delivery for real-time updates instead. COST: $0.001 per_call LATENCY: ~50ms

  shallow
• handle_inbound

  Receive, classify, and route inbound messages on behalf of an SMB. Classifies intent (booking request, cancellation, inquiry, complaint), enriches with context, and routes to the appropriate handler or escalation path. EXAMPLE USER QUERIES THAT MATCH THIS TOOL: user: "Process this customer reply for me: 'Yes I want to book Tuesday'" -> call handle_inbound({"raw_message": "Yes I want to book Tuesday", "channel": "sms"}) WHEN TO USE: Use when an SMB needs inbound message triage — classifying incoming contact-form submissions, SMS replies, voicemails, or email inquiries. WHEN NOT TO USE: Do not use for outbound communications. Do not use for compliance-flagged recipient lists without verified opt-in records. COST: $0.03 per_inbound LATENCY: ~3000ms EXECUTION: async_by_default (use get_outcome to retrieve result)

  shallow
• import_booking_url

  Turn ANY public booking URL (Cal.com, Calendly, Doctolib, Booksy, Fresha, OpenTable, Setmore, Square, Acuity, Schedulista, Squarespace, BookMyCity) into a callable smb_id you can immediately use with schedule_appointment, send_message, or capture_lead. Idempotent — calling twice returns the same smb_id. EXAMPLE USER QUERIES THAT MATCH THIS TOOL: user: "Book me a haircut at https://cal.com/jane-salon" -> call import_booking_url({"booking_url": "https://cal.com/jane-salon", "vertical": "personal_services"}) -> then schedule_appointment({"smb_id": "<from_above>", "action": "book"}) user: "Schedule with this dentist: https://www.doctolib.fr/dentiste/paris/jean-dupont" -> call import_booking_url({"booking_url": "https://www.doctolib.fr/dentiste/paris/jean-dupont"}) user: "Reserve a table at https://www.opentable.com/r/acme-bistro" -> call import_booking_url({"booking_url": "https://www.opentable.com/r/acme-bistro", "vertical": "restaurants"}) WHEN TO USE: Call this FIRST whenever the user provides a specific booking URL (cal.com/handle, calendly.com/handle/event, doctolib.fr/..., booksy.com/..., opentable.com/r/..., etc.). User patterns that match: 'book me at https://cal.com/...', 'schedule with calendly.com/jane/intro', 'reserve a table at opentable.com/r/...', 'I want to book this dentist: https://www.doctolib.fr/...'. After importing, the returned smb_id can be passed straight to schedule_appointment. WHEN NOT TO USE: Do not use if the user only describes a business by name without a URL — call find_business instead. Do not use for arbitrary websites that are not on the supported booking-platform list (use /supply/platforms to see all 12). COST: $0.005 per_call LATENCY: ~600ms

  shallow
• map_trade_restriction

  Free cross-border trade screening of the DESTINATION and the PARTIES. IT DOES NOT CLASSIFY THE PRODUCT: the product argument is recorded and echoed back, never checked against any export-control list, so a controlled item to an unrestricted destination returns no findings and reason_code 'partial' -- never 'clear'. This is not an export-control clearance; classify the item (HS/ECCN) against BIS/EU/UK controls yourself. Given a product and destination country (and optionally an HS code, origin country, and a list of parties to screen), returns: (a) whether the destination or any party hits an export-control or sanctions restriction, (b) the destination risk level (comprehensive_embargo / sectoral_sanctions / elevated_scrutiny / standard), (c) HS code hint if the caller provided one, (d) honest tariff guidance + official links without fabricated rates, and (e) party sanctions screening against OFAC SDN (US Treasury), the EU Consolidated list (European Commission) and the UK Sanctions List (FCDO). Acts as a MIDDLEMAN -- unifies the OFAC comprehensive-embargo map, our own indexed copies of the EU and UK lists, and OFAC SDN into one clean call. Never fabricates a tariff rate, a clear, or a restricted status. EXAMPLE USER QUERIES THAT MATCH THIS TOOL: user: "Can we ship laptops to Iran?" -> call map_trade_restriction({"product": "laptop computers", "destination_country": "IR"}) user: "Screen this supplier before we import from them: Mahan Air, Iran" -> call map_trade_restriction({"product": "aircraft parts", "destination_country": "US", "parties": ["Mahan Air"]}) user: "Is exporting hydraulic pumps to Russia restricted?" -> call map_trade_restriction({"product": "hydraulic pumps", "hs_code": "8413.50", "destination_country": "RU"}) user: "Check if we can sell medical devices to Germany, supplier is ACME GmbH" -> call map_trade_restriction({"product": "medical devices", "origin_country": "US", "destination_country": "DE", "parties": ["ACME GmbH"]}) WHEN TO USE: Use before any cross-border trade to flag embargoed destinations, screen exporters/importers/freight forwarders against sanctions lists, and get authoritative links to the applicable tariff databases. Call this as a pre-flight check before quoting, invoicing, or shipping internationally. Covers OFAC comprehensively-embargoed countries (Iran, North Korea, Cuba, Syria) and significant advisory countries (Russia, Belarus, Ukraine Crimea/DNR/LNR regions). WHEN NOT TO USE: Do NOT use as a substitute for a licensed export compliance review. Do NOT use to obtain authoritative tariff rates (this tool returns guidance links, never fabricated rates). Do NOT use for purely domestic shipments where no cross-border movement is involved. COST: free within the daily quota, then $0.02 per call LATENCY: ~3000ms

  shallow
• preview_cost

  Return an expected cost estimate, latency estimate, and success-probability estimate for a proposed call before execution. Accuracy SLO: actual cost within ±5% of preview. EXAMPLE USER QUERIES THAT MATCH THIS TOOL: user: "How much will this SMS cost me?" -> call preview_cost({"operation": "send_message", "params": {"channel_preference": "sms"}}) user: "Estimate the cost of booking via voice fallback" -> call preview_cost({"operation": "schedule_appointment"}) WHEN TO USE: Use before any operation when the agent is operating under a budget constraint and needs to decide whether to proceed. WHEN NOT TO USE: Do not use in a hot loop — cache the result for at least 60 seconds if repeating the same preview. COST: $0.001 per_call LATENCY: ~100ms

  shallow
• schedule_appointment

  Availability lookup, hold, confirm, reschedule, or cancel appointments with an SMB. Routes through the SMB's native booking system if available, falls back to voice AI or web form. EXAMPLE USER QUERIES THAT MATCH THIS TOOL: user: "Book the haircut for next Tuesday at 3pm" -> call schedule_appointment({"smb_id": "smb_imp_abc", "action": "book", "service": "haircut"}) user: "Cancel my Friday appointment at smb_xyz" -> call schedule_appointment({"smb_id": "smb_xyz", "action": "cancel"}) user: "Reschedule my dental cleaning to next week" -> call schedule_appointment({"smb_id": "smb_imp_xyz", "action": "reschedule"}) WHEN TO USE: Use when an agent needs to book, reschedule, or cancel a specific appointment with a specific SMB. Requires a verified smb_id. WHEN NOT TO USE: Do not use for bulk scheduling. Do not use without a verified SMB — call find_business and verify_business first if needed. COST: from $0.15 per_booking_attempt (see preview_cost for exact) LATENCY: ~5000ms EXECUTION: async_by_default (use get_outcome to retrieve result)

  shallow
• screen_sanctions

  Free screening of a name or entity against official sanctions lists, each fetched from the authority that issues it: the OFAC SDN list from the US Treasury (SDN.CSV plus ALT.CSV for alternate spellings), the EU consolidated financial sanctions list from the European Commission, and the UK Sanctions List from the FCDO. THE UN CONSOLIDATED LIST IS NOT SCREENED -- it carries no licence permitting commercial redistribution, so we do not claim it. ALWAYS check lists_screened on the response: it names the lists that actually ran ON THAT CALL, and a list that failed to load appears in sources_unavailable instead. reason_code is 'partial_screening' whenever any source was unavailable, never 'clear'. Returns matched: bool, a list of matches with score, program, and source URL, and which lists were screened. Never fabricates a match or a clear -- if no match is found, explicitly names which lists were checked. EXAMPLE USER QUERIES THAT MATCH THIS TOOL: user: "Screen this vendor before we pay them: ACME Trading LLC, Russia" -> call screen_sanctions({"name": "ACME Trading LLC", "country": "RU", "type": "entity"}) user: "Is Kim Jong-un on the OFAC list?" -> call screen_sanctions({"name": "Kim Jong-un", "country": "KP", "type": "person"}) user: "Run a sanctions check on this person before onboarding" -> call screen_sanctions({"name": "Ivan Petrov", "country": "RU", "type": "person"}) user: "Do a compliance check -- is this company sanctioned?" -> call screen_sanctions({"name": "Mahan Air", "country": "IR", "type": "entity"}) WHEN TO USE: Use before onboarding a counterparty, processing a payment, engaging a vendor, or doing any due-diligence step that requires knowing whether a person or entity appears on official sanctions lists. Essential for agents doing business formation, vendor qualification, payments onboarding, trade compliance, or any workflow where a sanctioned counterparty is a legal or reputational risk. WHEN NOT TO USE: Do not use as a substitute for full KYC/AML screening -- this covers sanctions lists only, not PEP (Politically Exposed Person) databases, adverse media, or credit risk. Do not treat a negative result as a compliance clearance; it is informational only. Do not use for bulk screening of large lists -- each call is a live API query. COST: free within the daily quota, then $0.02 per call LATENCY: ~2000ms

  shallow
• self_test

  Live capability probe that verifies the service is healthy, each claimed operation is reachable, and supply network size is current. Use to verify integration before production use. EXAMPLE USER QUERIES THAT MATCH THIS TOOL: user: "Run a health check before I send the broadcast" -> call self_test({}) WHEN TO USE: Use at agent startup, before high-stakes task sequences, or after receiving unexpected errors to check if the service is degraded. WHEN NOT TO USE: Do not call more than once per minute in production. COST: free LATENCY: ~200ms

  shallow
• send_message

  Send a message on behalf of an agent's user or an SMB across SMS, email, or voice. Five message types: transactional, reminder, follow_up, notification, marketing. Every send routes through a non-bypassable compliance gate (TCPA, GDPR, CASL, PDPL across 22 jurisdictions) that enforces opt-in consent for marketing/promotional content — marketing without recorded consent is rejected at runtime with a structured compliance_violation receipt. Channel is abstracted: specify intent and recipient; the service selects and falls back across channels. EXAMPLE USER QUERIES THAT MATCH THIS TOOL: user: "Text the salon I'll be 10 minutes late" -> call send_message({"recipient_id": "smb_xyz", "channel_preference": "sms", "message": {"body": "Will be 10 minutes late."}, "country_code": "US"}) user: "Email the dentist about insurance" -> call send_message({"recipient_id": "smb_xyz", "channel_preference": "email", "message": {"body": "Do you accept Cigna?"}}) WHEN TO USE: Use to: (a) confirm a booking the agent just made, (b) reply to a customer who messaged the SMB first, (c) follow up on a quote the user requested, (d) send appointment reminders the SMB owes its customer, (e) send marketing messages to recipients who have opted in (with consent_record_id). The gate verifies consent on every send. WHEN NOT TO USE: Do NOT use for OTPs or critical transactional confirmations — use send_transactional_confirmation. Do NOT attempt to send marketing without a consent_record_id pointing at a real opt-in — the gate will reject the send and log a compliance_violation. Do NOT attempt bulk / list-based / drip / cold outreach — those are out of scope and the rate limiter will throttle abuse. COST: from $0.02 per_message (see preview_cost for exact) LATENCY: ~800ms EXECUTION: sync_fast (use get_outcome to retrieve result)

  shallow
• send_transactional_confirmation

  Idempotent transactional messages: OTPs, booking confirmations, payment receipts, cancellation notices. Guaranteed delivery via redundant channels. EXAMPLE USER QUERIES THAT MATCH THIS TOOL: user: "Send the booking confirmation receipt to my email" -> call send_transactional_confirmation({"recipient_id": "user@example.com", "channel_preference": "email", "confirmation_type": "booking"}) WHEN TO USE: Use for any message that MUST be delivered reliably — OTPs, booking confirmations, receipts. Do not use for marketing. WHEN NOT TO USE: Do not use for marketing or promotional messages. Do not use for conversational messages. COST: $0.02 per_message LATENCY: ~500ms EXECUTION: sync_fast (use get_outcome to retrieve result)

  shallow
• verify_business

  Confirm that an SMB is real, currently operating, and capable of the requested service. Performs a live capability probe against the business's channel. EXAMPLE USER QUERIES THAT MATCH THIS TOOL: user: "Confirm smb_imp_abc actually does emergency plumbing" -> call verify_business({"smb_id": "smb_imp_abc", "capability_to_verify": "emergency_plumbing"}) WHEN TO USE: Use before sending communications or scheduling if you have an unverified SMB identifier, or if the agent's task requires confirmed capability (e.g., 'I need to be sure they do emergency plumbing'). WHEN NOT TO USE: Do not use if the SMB was returned from find_business within the last 24 hours — those results are already verified. COST: $0.02 per_call LATENCY: ~500ms

  shallow
• verify_company_record

  Free, live lookup of a company official registry record. Queries the GLEIF global LEI registry (primary, 2.6 million legal entities worldwide) and SEC EDGAR (US public companies) to return the official legal name, LEI, entity status, jurisdiction, registered address, and registry authority. Never fabricates: if the company is not found in these free registries, returns an honest not_found with the sources that were queried. EXAMPLE USER QUERIES THAT MATCH THIS TOOL: user: "Is Apple Inc a real registered company?" -> call verify_company_record({"name": "Apple Inc", "country": "US"}) user: "Look up the LEI for Volkswagen AG" -> call verify_company_record({"name": "Volkswagen AG", "country": "DE"}) user: "Verify this LEI: 529900HNOAA1KXQJUQ27" -> call verify_company_record({"name": "Volkswagen AG", "lei": "529900HNOAA1KXQJUQ27"}) WHEN TO USE: Use when you need to verify that a company exists as a registered legal entity and retrieve its official registry details -- before signing a contract, qualifying a vendor, validating a counterparty, or populating a due-diligence record. Accepts a legal name plus optional country filter or a direct LEI for a precise lookup. WHEN NOT TO USE: Do not use to verify private companies not registered with GLEIF or SEC. Do not use as an exhaustive fraud-detection tool; this is a first-pass existence check against free public registries, not a full KYC screen. COST: free within the daily quota, then $0.02 per call LATENCY: ~800ms
