How this service works
Find local service vendors for a business need. Given a service, location, and optional business context, return a ranked shortlist of relevant providers with public contact, website, address, service-area, rating, and review data. Suitable for facilities and operational services including commercial cleaning, HVAC, plumbing, electrical, security, landscaping, pest control, waste removal, and maintenance. Research only: this endpoint does not contact vendors, request quotes, or negotiate.
Output
A ranked list of up to 20 local vendors for the requested service and location, each including business name, contact details, website URL, physical address, service area, star rating, and review data. Also includes metadata such as request ID, whether results were cached, and a normalized service slug.
Example use cases
Office facility manager sourcing cleaners
“I need to find commercial cleaning companies serving downtown Seattle for our office building — give me up to 8 vendors with ratings and contact details.”
Restaurant owner finding plumbers
“Can you pull a shortlist of licensed plumbing vendors in Chicago that serve restaurants? I need their addresses, websites, and review info — up to 5 results.”
Property manager sourcing pest control
“Find me pest control vendors near Miami, FL that can serve a retail property — I want the top 10 ranked by rating with their contact and service area info.”
Technical details
Endpoint
POSThttps://www.pontor.io/api/x402/vendor-searchWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint when an agent needs to discover and evaluate local B2B operational service vendors (cleaning, HVAC, plumbing, electrical, pest control, landscaping, security, waste removal, facilities maintenance) for a specific business or facility context. Prefer this over generic web search when you need structured, ranked vendor data with ratings and contact information in a single API call. Not suitable for consumer services, quoting, booking, or direct vendor outreach.
Side effects
- No vendors found for the specified service and location — returns empty vendor list
- Invalid or unrecognizable location query — may return an error or zero results
- Service query too vague or unsupported — results may be irrelevant or sparse
- Rate limiting or payment failure — HTTP 402 or 429 response
- Location coordinates out of expected range — validation error
