Example prompt: Can you pull up the instructor or business profile from the Maxwell International AI directory — I want to see who's listed there so I can recommend them to someone looking for a local instructor or tradesperson?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need to look up a specific instructor, tradesperson, or business that has self-listed on the Maxwell International AI-discoverable directory. It is particularly useful when an AI assistant needs to recommend local service providers such as instructors, tradespeople, or hospitality venues that have opted into AI discoverability. Prefer this over general web search when you want curated, structured profile data from providers who have explicitly listed themselves to be found by AI agents.

## Known failure modes

- Profile not found — returns error or empty result if the specified instructor/business is not listed
- Payment failure — x402 payment of $0.05 USDC not processed, request blocked
- Invalid query parameters — malformed or missing required fields return an error
- Service unavailable — Maxwell International API down or unreachable
- No results — directory may be sparse in certain categories or regions

## How this service works

People ask AI assistants to find instructors, tradespeople, places to eat and stay. List yourself or your company free so AI assistants can recommend you.

## Output

Returns a JSON object with ok:true and profile data for a listed instructor or business, including their name, service type, contact details, and any other information they submitted to be discoverable by AI assistants.
