How this service works
AI-generated descriptions of places found by web or place search. Use it to learn what a place is before recommending it. Pass the location ids, repeated as ids=a&ids=b. Ids expire after about 8 hours.
Output
An array of objects, each containing the location ID, a type label, and an AI-generated text description of the place — suitable for presenting to a user or feeding into a recommendation.
Example use cases
Restaurant recommendation with context
“I found a few Italian restaurants using Brave place search — can you fetch the descriptions for those location IDs so I can tell my user what each place is actually like before picking one?”
Tourist attraction briefing
“Before I recommend these three museums to my user, can you get me the Brave descriptions for their location IDs so I can give a quick summary of what each one is?”
Business vetting before referral
“I have location IDs for two co-working spaces I found in a search — can you pull their AI-generated descriptions so I can decide which one is worth recommending?”
Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://search.agent.s.brave.app/res/v1/local/descriptions?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint when you already have location IDs from a Brave web or place search and need human-readable, AI-generated descriptions of those places before recommending or presenting them. It is the right choice when you want to add context or narrative to raw place results without doing a full web scrape. Prefer it over the place details endpoint when you need descriptive text rather than structured data like hours or phone numbers.
Side effects
- Expired location IDs (older than ~8 hours) return no results or an error — IDs must be fresh from a recent search
- Invalid or malformed IDs return empty results
- Requesting more than 20 IDs at once is rejected
- IDs from non-Brave sources are not recognized
- Network or service errors return HTTP error codes
