How this service works
Screen a US college or university name against the federal DAPIP database: fuzzy name search returning ranked institution candidates, each with its DAPIP id, OPEID, IPEDS unit id, state and an accredited flag. Cheap first step before edu/verify.
Output
A ranked list of up to 15 institution candidates (default 5) each containing: DAPIP id, OPEID, IPEDS unit id, institution name, state abbreviation, and a boolean accredited flag. Results are ordered by fuzzy name match relevance.
Example use cases
Example prompt
“Can you screen 'Northeastern University' against the federal DAPIP database and return the top 3 matching institution candidates with their DAPIP IDs, OPEIDs, and whether they're accredited?”
Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://api.agentstools.dev/edu/screenWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint as a cheap first-pass screener ($0.008) before calling a more expensive verification endpoint like edu/verify. Ideal when you have a user-supplied institution name of uncertain spelling or format and need to resolve it to canonical federal identifiers (DAPIP id, OPEID, IPEDS unit id). Prefer this over direct verification when you need to handle fuzzy/partial names or disambiguation between similarly-named institutions.
Side effects
- No matches found for highly misspelled or non-existent institution names
- Ambiguous name returns many low-confidence candidates — agent should increase limit or refine query
- Rate limit or payment failure (x402) if USDC balance is insufficient
- Empty name query returns validation error (name is required)
- Limit parameter outside 1–15 range returns schema validation error
