Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://econ.memoryapi.org/x402/econ/businessWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint when you need structured, authoritative data on business counts, employment, and payroll by industry and geography at the U.S. state or county level. Prefer this over general web search when you need precise Census-sourced statistics for economic analysis, market research, or regional industry comparisons.
Side effects
- Invalid or unsupported NAICS code returns no results or an error
- State or county not found returns empty dataset
- Data may be lagged by 1-2 years as Census CBP data is released annually
- Payment failure (402) if USDC balance is insufficient
- Rate limiting if too many requests are made in quick succession
