## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need structured listings data from Thumbtack specifically — including business names, ratings, and review counts for local service professionals — filtered by keyword/category and ZIP code. It is pay-per-call with no charge for failed or empty runs, making it low-risk for exploratory queries. Prefer this over general web scrapers when Thumbtack is explicitly the data source needed.

## Known failure modes

- Thumbtack changes its page structure, causing empty or malformed results — not charged
- Invalid or non-existent ZIP code in search URL returns empty items array
- Search URL does not follow Thumbtack instant-results format and yields no data
- Rate limiting or blocking by Thumbtack may cause failed runs — not charged
- maxItems set to 0 returns unlimited results which may take longer or hit limits

## How this service works

Pay-per-call structured web data. Failed or empty runs are not charged.

## Output

A JSON object containing a count and an array of professional listings, each with fields for business name, rating, number of reviews, review qualifier, avatar URL, and internal Thumbtack identifiers (servicePk, categoryPk, reviewPk). Failed or empty scrape runs are not billed.
