company
company_complaint_profile
One-call CONSUMER-RISK read for a company or brand, LED by the consumer-complaint picture. Joins three public-record legs, CFPB first: CFPB Consumer Complaint Database (complaint volume for the company plus the top complaint products and issues - the primary signal), product recalls (CPSC consumer products + openFDA drug/device/food enforcement, keyed by the company), and federal-court litigation (CourtListener dockets whose caption actually names the company). Returns a rolled-up read (LOW / MODERATE / ELEVATED consumer-risk signals) that leads with complaint volume and the top complaint products/issues, then folds in recall count and severity (FDA Class I / death-related = high) and litigation hits (total + last-3-years). A leg that fails is noted, not fatal. This is consumer-complaint-centered and distinct from product_liability_screen (recall/litigation-centered for manufacturers). NHTSA vehicle recalls need a specific year+make+model so are out of scope here (use recall_screen for a vehicle). Premium cross-source synthesis; informational public-record synthesis, NOT legal advice.

company_trust_check
One-call public-record trust read for a company - answers 'can I trust this company?' for KYB/vendor-diligence agents. Joins the LiveDataLink sources that carry a legitimacy or risk signal into a single standing read: an OFAC SDN / EU / UN / BIS sanctions screen (a hit is decisive), SEC EDGAR registration plus the latest filing date (legitimacy + recency), USAspending federal award history (the US government transacts with them), and EPA ECHO facility compliance (significant-non-compliance, penalty, and non-compliant-quarter flags). Returns a plain-English verdict band (ESTABLISHED PUBLIC-RECORD STANDING / STANDING WITH FLAGS / LIMITED FOOTPRINT / SANCTIONS SCREEN HIT), the positive signals, the flags to review, and the resolved identifiers. A source that fails is noted, not fatal. This is a public-record SIGNAL read, not a credit report, background check, or endorsement: absence of a record is not proof of wrongdoing and a match is not proof of guilt. Premium cross-source synthesis.
disaster
disaster_declarations
Recent FEMA disaster declarations filtered by state, county, incident type, or date range. Returns disaster number, title, dates, and incident category.
disaster_history_summary
Multi-year FEMA disaster summary for a location. Buckets declarations by incident type and year so insurance brokers and realtors can assess cumulative risk on the same address used in property_lookup.
disaster_recovery_profile
One-call disaster-history and recovery read for a US area (county or place), keyed by NAME + state - distinct from location_risk_report, which scores a single site by address/lat-lon. Joins FEMA's OpenFEMA disaster declarations (the area's federally-declared disaster history: incident types, frequency, most-recent event, and the federal-assistance signal - which programs, Individual Assistance / Individuals & Households / Public Assistance / Hazard Mitigation, were authorized) with optional US Census ACS county population for exposure context (keyed off the FIPS codes the FEMA records carry; needs a Census key and degrades gracefully) and an optional best-effort parcel record for property context when an address is given (Maryland statewide / Texas-Harris County only). Returns a readable profile with a headline banding the area's disaster exposure LOW / MODERATE / HIGH from the declaration record. The FEMA leg is keyless and is the core signal; a source that fails is noted, not fatal. INFORMATIONAL public-record synthesis, NOT an insurance rating, a property flood-risk score, or a professional risk assessment.

Return the public GHS (Globally Harmonized System) hazard classification for a chemical from the NIH/NLM PubChem database (keyless, public-domain data). Given a chemical name or PubChem CID, it resolves the compound and returns the GHS signal word (Danger/Warning) and the list of GHS hazard statements (e.g. 'H302: Harmful if swallowed'). If PubChem has no GHS classification on file for the compound, that is reported gracefully. This is informational public GHS classification data, not regulatory guidance or a safety data sheet - verify against an official SDS before handling any chemical.

Matches are name-based; verify identity before relying on any link.
entity_resolve
Resolve a company across US government sources in one call. Searches SEC EDGAR, EPA ECHO, and the sanctions lists by name and returns the candidate match and strong identifiers (SEC CIK, ticker, EPA registry id) found in each. Use this to confirm WHO an entity is and gather its IDs before pulling detail. Matches are name-based candidates to verify, not certain identity links.

Get current air quality data for any location. Returns US AQI index, PM2.5, PM10, ozone, NO2, SO2, and CO levels with health category rating. Use this for 'what's the air quality?', 'is it safe to go outside?', 'pollution levels', 'AQI in Los Angeles', 'should I wear a mask?', 'is there smoke in the air?', or any air quality or pollution question.
analytics
iv_analytics
Compute derived options-volatility analytics for a US ticker from LiveDataLink's historical volatility series (2019-2024): IV Rank (where current implied vol sits in its own range over the lookback window), IV Percentile (share of days with lower IV), Variance Risk Premium (implied minus realized vol), 52-week IV high/low, and 1-week/1-month IV momentum. Premium synthesis over the options-history store. Analytical aid, not investment advice.
available
search_available_datasets
Your guide to LiveDataLink's entire data catalog. Call this FIRST when you're unsure which tool to use, or when the user asks about data availability. LiveDataLink has 284 tools across 50+ data domains: finance (stocks, options), crypto, transportation/FMCSA carriers, property records, weather/air quality, vehicle VIN/recalls, package tracking, local business search, sanctions screening (OFAC SDN, EU, UN, BIS), FEMA disasters and flood data, federal courts (CourtListener), cybersecurity (CVE/CWE/EPSS/CISA KEV), US college metrics (IPEDS), EIA energy data (gasoline, natural gas, electricity, oil supply, renewables), FRED Federal Reserve macroeconomic series (GDP, CPI, fed funds, unemployment, yields), SEC EDGAR filings (10-K, 10-Q, 8-K, insider transactions), and NREL renewable energy (PVWatts solar, utility rates, EV charging stations), US Census demographics, EPA environmental compliance, FEC campaign finance, USPTO patents, IRS nonprofits (Form 990/EO BMF), US caselaw, public-domain books (full-text search), open-access scholarly papers (OpenAlex catalog + arXiv/PMC full-text search), federal regulations (Federal Register rules/notices + the Code of Federal Regulations), US Census geocoding (address to coordinates + Census geographies), federal grants (Grants.gov funding opportunities), and product recalls (CPSC / SaferProducts.gov). New domains ship weekly based on which queries customers actually run. Returns exact tool names for matched domains AND logs every search to a roadmap database. High-frequency unmet queries jump the build queue. Use this freely; it costs no credits. Call for: 'what data do you have?', 'can you look up X?', 'do you have Y data?', 'what tools are available?', or any data coverage question.
bank
bank_health_report
One-call financial-health read for a US bank or savings institution. Give a bank name or an FDIC certificate (CERT) number. Joins FDIC BankFind institution + financials (total assets, deposits, net income, return on assets/equity, active-vs-failed status) with the CFPB Consumer Complaint Database (complaint volume and top complaint products for the matched company) into a HEALTHY / STABLE / WATCH / FAILED read with the numbers behind it. FDIC is the primary signal; CFPB complaint data is best-effort and degrades gracefully if the bank's complaint records cannot be matched. Useful for picking a sponsor/partner bank, treasury counterparty checks, or deposit-safety questions. Informational, not a rating or advice.
beneficial
beneficial_owner_screen
One-call KYB/AML ownership-chain sanctions screen: answers the real question 'is anyone in this company's ownership chain sanctioned?', not just 'is the top-level name on a list?'. Give a company name or a 20-character LEI; the tool maps the ownership structure via GLEIF (keyless CC0 reference data) - the subject entity, its ULTIMATE parent (top of the chain), and its reported direct subsidiaries, capped at about 15 entities so a broad group stays bounded - then SCREENS each entity in that set against the local sanctions/watchlist matcher (OFAC SDN / EU / UN / BIS), the same first-party matcher company_trust_check uses. Returns the mapped ownership structure, a per-entity CLEAR / HIT result (each hit naming the matched list entry, source, and score), and an overall verdict: CLEAR (no entity matched) vs HITS-FOUND (at least one entity in the chain matched). This catches a sanctioned parent or subsidiary that screening only the counterparty name would miss - the exposure beneficial-ownership rules target. Best-effort: if GLEIF hops fail the subject is still screened; if the sanctions binding is unavailable the screen is noted as unavailable, never silently passed. Only relationships an entity self-reports to GLEIF are shown. A name match is not proof of identity and must be cleared. Informational public-record synthesis, not legal, compliance, or sanctions-clearance advice.
bounce
bounce_scanner
Screen one or more US tickers for a mean-reversion 'bounce' setup on daily bars: price near support (recent pivot low) or the moving average, RSI oversold and turning up, a bullish latest candle, and volume at/above its recent average. Returns per-symbol {isBounce, score 0-100, reasons, price, rsi, distanceToSupportPct, supportLevel}. ALL thresholds are tunable inputs (rsi_threshold, ma_period, proximity_pct, lookback_days) so calibration is a parameter change. HEURISTIC signal for research, not investment advice.
candlestick
candlestick_signals
Detect classic candlestick patterns on a ticker's recent daily bars: hammer, inverted hammer, bullish/bearish engulfing, doji, morning/evening star, and shooting star. Returns each detected pattern with {pattern, date, direction (bullish/bearish/neutral), barIndex}. HEURISTIC pattern detection with conservative default thresholds; for research, not investment advice.
cargo
cargo_crate
Look up a Rust crate on crates.io: latest version, description, total downloads, repository, and homepage. Keyless.
carrier
carrier_vetting_score
Vet a US motor carrier (trucking company) for a freight-brokerage 'is this safe and legit to broker a load to?' decision, in one call. Give a USDOT number, MC number, or carrier name. Joins FMCSA safety data (operating authority, insurance on file, BASIC safety scores, crash and out-of-service history vs the national average, safety rating) with sanctions screening (OFAC/UN/EU/BIS on the carrier's legal name), federal-court litigation history (CourtListener), and USAspending federal awards. Returns a GO / CAUTION / NO-GO verdict with the reasons, plus all the underlying fields. NO-GO is triggered by a sanctions match or lack of active operating authority; CAUTION by BASIC alerts, fatal crashes, missing liability insurance, high out-of-service rates, or litigation. This is an analytical aid, not a substitute for your own carrier-onboarding checks.
clinical
clinical_site_selector
One-call clinical-trial-activity + local-specialist-availability read for a medical condition in a US geography - the question a trial sponsor, CRO, or site-feasibility analyst asks before choosing where to run a study. Joins three keyless public sources: ClinicalTrials.gov (exact count of RECRUITING trials for the condition, scoped to the geography and compared to the national total, plus the top lead sponsors and phase mix from the recruiting sample), the NPPES NPI Registry (local specialist availability - how many providers carry a specialty taxonomy relevant to the condition in the area, across physicians and NPs/PAs/pharmacists/RNs in the field), and optionally US Census ACS population context for the state (needs a Census key; degrades gracefully). The condition is mapped to a provider specialty heuristically; pass an explicit 'specialty' to override. Returns a readable brief with a headline banding trial activity (HIGH/MODERATE/LOW/NONE) and specialist availability. A source that fails is noted, not fatal. INFORMATIONAL research / site-feasibility synthesis, NOT medical advice or a directive to enroll in any trial.
corporate
corporate_ownership_tree
One-call FULL corporate-ownership tree for a company from GLEIF (keyless CC0 reference data). Give a company name or a 20-character LEI; the tool resolves the entity, climbs to its ULTIMATE parent (top of the ownership chain), then walks DOWN from that root to list the reported direct subsidiaries plus one level of grand-subsidiaries, each with its LEI, jurisdiction, and status (entity ACTIVE/INACTIVE + LEI registration ISSUED/LAPSED). The queried entity is marked in the tree so you can see where it sits. Distinct from resolve_entity, which returns the ultimate parent plus a subsidiary COUNT only: this returns the actual subsidiary LIST/tree for M&A, diligence, and counterparty mapping. The tree is capped (about 25 nodes) so a broad conglomerate stays bounded, with an 'and N more' note where GLEIF reports additional subsidiaries. Only relationships an entity self-reports to GLEIF are shown, so coverage varies by company. A failing hierarchy hop is noted, not fatal. Informational public-record synthesis; verify against GLEIF before relying on it.
cost
cost_of_doing_business_index
One-call comparative 'cost of operating a business here' read for a US state (with optional metro context). Joins three independent public sources, each a real operating-cost dimension expressed RELATIVE to the US national average (national = 1.00) so the result is a readable, comparable index: LABOR cost from BLS QCEW private-sector average annual pay across all industries (keyless), ENERGY cost from EIA retail electricity price for the commercial and industrial sectors (state vs national), and local CONTEXT from US Census ACS median household income, per-capita income, and median gross rent (needs a Census key; degrades gracefully). Returns a headline relative-cost banding (LOW / MODERATE / HIGH cost vs national) from a labor-weighted composite of the labor and energy indices, with each dimension's numbers and its own banding shown. Labor and energy are state-level; a supplied metro refines the context leg and label only. A source that fails is noted, not fatal. Informational, not a guarantee.
counterparty
counterparty_risk_score
Compute a composite 0-100 Counterparty Risk Score for a company name. Combines findings from sanctions screening (OFAC/UN/EU/BIS), SEC EDGAR (registered-filer signal), federal courts (litigation history), EPA ECHO (environmental enforcement), and USAspending (federal contract vetting) into a single weighted metric with an explainable evidence chain. Returns: score, risk band (clean/low/moderate/elevated/high/critical), itemized evidence with citations, sources queried, sources that failed, and a plain-text summary suitable for an AI agent to surface to a user. Sanctions hits zero the score regardless of other signals. Use this when you need a single-call counterparty risk verdict instead of stitching five separate queries.
cwe
cwe_lookup
MITRE CWE detail by ID (format CWE-NNN or NNN). Returns name, abstraction, status, description, and parent/child CWE relationships.
earthquake
earthquake_recent
Recent earthquakes from USGS. Filter by region (lat/lon + radius), state name, magnitude threshold, or time window.
energy
energy_market_snapshot
One-call US energy market snapshot from EIA (public domain): the WTI crude (Cushing), Brent crude, and Henry Hub natural-gas benchmark prices, each enriched with derived context - latest level and date, 1-year change, where the current level sits within its own recent history (percentile), and the recent trend direction (rising/falling/flat). Answers 'what is oil/gas doing right now, and is it historically high or low' in a single call. A source that fails is noted, not fatal. Premium synthesis over the EIA domain; informational market data, not trading advice.
environmental
environmental_site_risk
One-call environmental-compliance and contamination liability read for a SPECIFIC site or operator - the question a buyer, lender, or Phase-I ESA asks before a deal. Distinct from location_risk_report (which scores natural hazards plus a shallow count of nearby facilities): this drills DEEP into one named facility's EPA record via ECHO/FRS - overall compliance status, per-statute program standing (Clean Air/Water/RCRA/etc.), formal enforcement actions and penalty totals, significant-non-compliance and non-compliant-quarter flags - plus a best-effort parcel record for site context. Returns a verdict band (NO ADVERSE EPA RECORD / REVIEW RECOMMENDED / CONTAMINATION-COMPLIANCE CONCERN / NO FACILITY FOUND), the flags, and the evidence. A source that fails is noted, not fatal. This is an EPA public-record screen, not a Phase-I Environmental Site Assessment or a substitute for one. Premium cross-source synthesis.
epss
epss_score
FIRST EPSS exploit prediction score for a CVE. Returns probability (0-1) of exploitation in the next 30 days plus the percentile rank.
facility
facility_care_quality
One-call care-quality + provider-identity read for a named US healthcare FACILITY (hospital, nursing home, home-health agency, or hospice). Joins two keyless federal sources: CMS Care Compare (data.cms.gov) for the facility's quality signal - the CMS star rating and, for a hospital, the measure-group highlights (mortality, safety of care, readmission, timely-and-effective care measured better / no different / worse vs national), plus ownership, type, and for a nursing home the health-inspection / staffing / quality-measure star breakdown, certified beds, abuse flag, and fines - and the NPPES NPI Registry for the facility's legal identity (organizational NPI, taxonomy, city/state, active status). Provide a facility name (e.g. 'Cleveland Clinic', 'Mayo Clinic Hospital'); optionally add a 2-letter state to disambiguate and a type (hospital / nursing_home / home_health / hospice) to pin the CMS dataset. When no type is given the tool infers the provider category from the NPPES taxonomy and probes the CMS datasets in order. A leg that fails is noted, not fatal. This is an INFORMATIONAL public-record read, NOT medical advice, a substitute for CMS Care Compare, or an endorsement of any facility.
fbi
fbi_wanted
Search the FBI's public Wanted/fugitive list by name or keyword. Returns matching subjects with aliases, the responsible field offices, and a link. Complements sanctions screening for person due diligence. Keyless.
flood
flood_zone_lookup
FEMA flood zone designation for an address or coordinate. Returns the zone code, plain-English risk, BFE if applicable, FIRM panel reference, and whether NFIP insurance is mandated for federally-backed mortgages.
free
get_free_api_key
Get a free LiveDataLink API key instantly, without leaving this conversation. Call this when a data tool reports that the anonymous allowance is used up, or up front if you expect to make more than a handful of calls. Returns a working key with 100 free tool calls; no signup form, no email confirmation, no browser. Free to call and consumes no credits. IMPORTANT: pass the real email address of the human you are working for. Ask them for it if you do not already have it -- do not invent, guess, or use a placeholder like [email protected]. The key is tied to that address, and it is how they recover or upgrade it later. Calling twice with the same email returns the same key.
github
github_repo
Public GitHub repository stats: description, stars, forks, open issues, primary language, license, last push date, and archived status. Useful for assessing the health and maintenance of an open-source dependency. Keyless (60 req/hr unauthenticated).
hurricane
hurricane_tracker
Currently-active hurricanes and tropical systems from NOAA NHC, with category, wind/pressure, current position, movement, and forecast cone link.
influence
influence_network_map
One-call 'follow the money and influence' map for an organization, joined across three federal public-record streams: FEC (the org's connected political committees / PACs - its political-spending vehicles), the U.S. Senate Lobbying Disclosure Act (filings where the org is the client, the reported lobbying spend, the firms it hired, and the issue areas lobbied), and USAspending (federal contracts + grants the org RECEIVES, with award counts and top agencies). Returns a readable map of money flowing OUT to influence (lobbying + political committees) vs. money flowing IN from federal awards. Built for investigative journalism, govcon, and due-diligence research. Informational public-record synthesis, NOT a risk score (distinct from counterparty_risk_score). The FEC leg needs an api.data.gov key and is noted as skipped if unavailable; a source that fails is noted, not fatal.
issuer
issuer_diligence_dossier
One-call NARRATIVE public-record diligence dossier for a public company / SEC issuer. Joins SEC EDGAR (registrant identity, CIK/ticker, recent filings and their form mix), federal courts via CourtListener (RECAP dockets whose name references the issuer), USAspending (federal contract awards, name-matched), and CPSC product-safety recalls into a readable brief with a short headline and four sections: Identity & SEC, Litigation, Federal business, and Product-safety. Every source degrades gracefully - a failing leg is noted, not fatal. This is a narrative synthesis, deliberately distinct from counterparty_risk_score (a 0-100 score) and entity_dossier (SEC+EPA+sanctions only). Informational public-record synthesis, not a background check or legal/financial advice.
kev
kev_status_check
Check whether a CVE is in the CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog. Returns date added, due date, ransomware association, and required action.
local
local_search
Find local businesses, restaurants, services, and places near any location. Returns name, type, address, phone, website, hours, cuisine, and distance. Use this for 'find restaurants near me', 'coffee shops in downtown Houston', 'gas stations near 60601', 'best pizza in Chicago', 'pharmacies nearby', 'hotels in Austin', 'find a mechanic', 'gyms near me', or any local business or place discovery question. Supports: restaurants, cafes, bars, gas stations, pharmacies, hospitals, doctors, dentists, gyms, hotels, grocery stores, banks, schools, parks, libraries, auto repair, salons, and more.
location
location_risk_report
One-call, site-bound hazard + environmental profile with an explainable 0-100 risk score. Geocodes an address (or takes lat/lon) then fans out to FEMA flood zone, recent FEMA disaster declarations (county), active NWS alerts, USGS earthquakes within 50km, EPA ECHO regulated facilities (by ZIP/state), and parcel records (Maryland statewide / Texas-Harris County only). The score starts at 100 and subtracts itemized deductions (flood SFHA, active alerts, declarations, EPA non-compliance, strong quakes). A failing source is noted, not fatal. Premium cross-source synthesis; not a substitute for a professional site assessment.
market
market_size_estimator
One-call TAM / market-size read for an industry (NAICS) in a US geography. Joins two independent federal sources that both count business activity by NAICS + area so each corroborates the other: US Census County Business Patterns (establishments, employment, annual payroll - needs a Census API key) and BLS QCEW (keyless: private establishment count, total wages, average annual pay, with employment implied from wages / avg pay). Returns the establishment count, employment, and a wage/payroll-based market-size anchor with the per-source evidence. Pass an 'industry' (e.g. 'restaurants', 'software publishers') or an explicit 'naics' code, and an optional 'state' or 'metro' (defaults to national). Market size here is the total annual wages/payroll paid in the industry+area - a concrete lower bound, NOT total revenue/receipts. A source that fails is noted, not fatal. Informational, not a guarantee.
nfip
nfip_flood_claims
National Flood Insurance Program claim history aggregated by zip, county, or state. Useful for insurance brokers and homebuyers assessing prior loss patterns.
npm
npm_package
Look up an npm (Node.js) package: latest version, description, license, repository, last publish date, deprecation status, and last-month download count. Pair with cve_search_by_keyword to check for known vulnerabilities. Keyless.
nws
nws_active_alerts
Currently-active National Weather Service alerts (tornado, flood, severe thunderstorm, winter, heat, fire) for a point, state, or NWS zone.
org
org_funding_profile
One-call federal-money + nonprofit profile for an organization: USAspending contracts and grants recipient summaries (total dollars, award counts, top agencies), IRS 990 exempt-organization details (revenue/assets/income, NTEE, subsection, exempt status) by EIN or name+state, and optionally open Grants.gov OPPORTUNITIES (clearly labeled as available funding to apply for, NOT awards received). Sources degrade gracefully. Premium cross-source synthesis; federal dollars are name-matched and should be verified.
package
package_track
Track a package or shipment by tracking number. Auto-detects carrier (USPS, UPS, FedEx, DHL, Amazon). Returns delivery status, current location, estimated delivery date, and tracking history. Use this for 'where is my package?', 'track this shipment', 'when will my order arrive?', 'check delivery status', 'is my package delivered?', or any package tracking question. Just paste the tracking number - the carrier is detected automatically.
prescriber
prescriber_ties_profile
One-call identity + industry-financial-ties transparency profile for a US healthcare prescriber. Joins two keyless federal sources: the NPPES NPI Registry (identity - NPI, specialty, city/state, active status) and CMS Open Payments / Sunshine Act (industry payments disclosed to that prescriber - total dollars, payment count, top paying manufacturers, and associated drugs/products for the most recent program year with data). Provide a last_name (ideally with first_name + state) or an exact 10-digit npi. The name resolver picks the NPPES record that genuinely matches the requested name (never a blind top hit), and payments are pinned to that exact NPI across recent program years. This is a TRANSPARENCY profile drawn from public records, NOT a judgment: industry payments to physicians are lawful and publicly disclosed, and their presence is not evidence of wrongdoing. A source that fails is noted, not fatal. Premium cross-source synthesis; verify against the primary sources.
price
price_to_rent_ratio
Compute the buy-vs-rent price-to-rent ratio for a US metro or state: Zillow home value (ZHVI) divided by annualized rent (ZORI x 12). Returns the ratio plus a rule-of-thumb signal (below ~15 favors buying, above ~20 favors renting). Premium synthesis over the real-estate market store. Rule-of-thumb only, not financial advice.
product
product_liability_screen
One-call product-safety + liability read for a MANUFACTURER or brand. Joins three public-record legs: product recalls (CPSC consumer products + openFDA drug/device/food enforcement, keyed by manufacturer), federal-court litigation (CourtListener dockets whose caption actually names the brand), and CFPB consumer-complaint volume. Returns a rolled-up read (CLEAN / WATCH / ELEVATED LIABILITY SIGNALS) with recall count and severity (FDA Class I / death-related = high), litigation hits (total + last-3-years), and complaint volume, plus an itemized interpretation. A leg that fails is noted, not fatal. NHTSA vehicle recalls need a specific year+make+model so are out of scope here (use recall_screen for a vehicle). Premium cross-source synthesis; informational public-record synthesis, NOT legal advice.
pypi
pypi_package
Look up a Python (PyPI) package: latest version, summary, license, author, homepage, and required Python version. Keyless.
recall
recall_screen
One-call product-safety recall sweep across CPSC (consumer products), openFDA (drug/device/food enforcement), and NHTSA (vehicles). Provide a product/keyword/manufacturer query and/or a full vehicle (year+make+model). Results are normalized, deduped within and across sources, severity-rolled (FDA Class I or death-related = high), and summarized with a by-classification breakdown. A source that fails is noted, not fatal. Premium cross-source synthesis. Verify against the official sources before acting.
reputation
ip_reputation
Risk profile for an IP address: geolocation and network (ASN/ISP/org) plus two abuse signals - whether it is a known Tor exit node, and whether it appears on the abuse.ch Feodo botnet command-and-control blocklist. For fraud, abuse, and security screening. Keyless.
resolve
resolve_entity
Canonical cross-source entity resolution - the join-key primitive to run before other combos. Given a company/organization name (plus optional ticker/CIK/EIN/state hints), fans out across the LiveDataLink sources that carry a strong identifier and returns the best-matched canonical identity plus the IDs it resolves to: SEC EDGAR (CIK, ticker), GLEIF (LEI plus the ownership chain - direct and ultimate parent LEI and the reported subsidiary count), NPPES (organizational NPI for healthcare entities), IRS 990 (EIN), USAspending (federal recipient name), EPA ECHO (facility registry id), and an OFAC/EU/UN/BIS sanctions screen (match/no-match flag). Returns a compact canonical-IDs block with per-source confidence, an entity-type guess, an ownership summary, and an overall match confidence - distinct from entity_dossier's full narrative. A source that fails is noted, not fatal. UEI/SAM.gov and RDAP domain-owner ids are omitted (not wired sources). Premium cross-source synthesis; verify identifiers before relying on a join.
security
security_exposure
One-call known-vulnerability exposure for a vendor/product/package, built on the LiveDataLink cyber domain. Fans out to NVD (CVE search by vendor+product or keyword), the CISA KEV catalog (actively-exploited flag - the highest signal), FIRST EPSS (exploit-probability scores for the most-severe CVEs), and aggregates MITRE CWE weakness types from the matched CVEs. Returns total CVEs, counts by CVSS severity band, KEV membership with the actively-exploited CVEs listed, the highest EPSS score, the critical CVEs, top CWE weakness types, an overall exposure rollup (KEV present -> high), and an evidence list. No matches returns a friendly 0-exposure result; if the cyber source is unavailable that is noted per-source. Exactly one NVD call per invocation. INFORMATIONAL security research, not advice. Package-registry maintenance/staleness signals are out of scope for this tool.
sun
sun_times
Compute sunrise, sunset, solar noon, and civil twilight for any latitude/longitude on a given date. Times are computed in code from the standard NOAA solar-position equations (no third-party API is called, so the result is dependency-free and resale-safe). Times are returned in UTC by default; pass tz_offset (hours from UTC, e.g. -7 for US Pacific Daylight Time) to shift the output to local clock time. Polar day and polar night are reported when the sun does not rise or set. Use it for daylight planning, photography golden-hour timing, or agriculture and energy calculations.
supplier
supplier_esg_scorecard
One-call, resale-safe ESG / supplier-risk read for a company - no proprietary ESG-rating license needed. Joins three public-record governance-signal legs: EPA ECHO/FRS environmental compliance (significant-non-compliance flags, non-compliant quarters, penalties, and formal enforcement actions across the company's facilities, with correct filtering so clean 'No Violation Identified' statuses are never flagged), product recalls (CPSC consumer products + openFDA drug/device/food, keyed by the company), and federal-court litigation (CourtListener v4 dockets whose caption actually names the company). Returns a readable scorecard across Environmental / Product-safety / Litigation dimensions with a rolled-up read (LOW / MODERATE / ELEVATED ESG risk signals) and the evidence behind each. A leg that fails is noted, not fatal. This is informational public-record synthesis of ESG/supplier-risk SIGNALS, NOT an ESG rating, credit/background report, or investment advice.
support
support_resistance_levels
Return key support/resistance price levels for a US ticker from recent daily pivots (swing highs/lows) plus nearby round-number levels, with the latest close for context. HEURISTIC levels for research, not investment advice.
talent
talent_market_brief
One-call 'can I hire this role here, and at what cost' read for an occupation in a US geography. Joins two independent federal sources: BLS OEWS (Occupational Employment and Wage Statistics, keyless) for the occupation's employment LEVEL and wage distribution (mean plus 10th / 50th-median / 90th annual percentiles) in the area, and US Census ACS labor-force context (civilian labor force and local unemployment rate - needs a Census API key) to band how TIGHT / BALANCED / SLACK the local hiring market is. Pass an 'occupation' (e.g. 'registered nurses', 'software developers') or an explicit 'soc_code' (e.g. '29-1141'), and an optional 'state' or 'metro' (defaults to national). Returns a readable brief with a headline (employment, median/mean wage, market tightness), the wage percentiles, and per-source evidence. The BLS OEWS leg is the core signal and is keyless; the Census leg degrades gracefully if no key is set. Informational, NOT a guarantee that a role can be filled at any given wage.
tide
tide_predictions
Return high and low tide predictions (times and heights) from the keyless NOAA Tides & Currents (CO-OPS) public API - U.S. Government public-domain data. Give either a NOAA station id (e.g. '9414290' for San Francisco) or a lat/lon (the nearest tide-prediction station is chosen automatically). Returns each high and low tide over the requested inclusive date range, in local station time, relative to the chosen tidal datum (default MLLW). Use it for tide tables, beach and boating planning, or coastal scheduling.
tool
list_tool_groups
List every tool group (category) available on LiveDataLink with its domain count and tool count. Use this to discover which groups exist, then connect to https://livedatalink.ai/mcp?groups=<comma,separated> (or send the header X-Tool-Groups: <comma,separated>) to load ONLY those groups. Filtering keeps the tool list small so an agent selects tools accurately and uses less context. Free to call, no credits consumed. Optional 'query' filters group names.
vehicle
vehicle_recalls
Check for safety recalls on a vehicle by year, make, and model. Returns all NHTSA recall campaigns including affected component, description, safety risk, and recommended remedy. Use this for 'are there recalls on my car?', 'check recalls for 2020 Toyota Camry', 'is this vehicle safe?', 'any open recalls?', or any vehicle recall check. Covers all US vehicles from all manufacturers.
vin
vin_decode
Decode a Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) to get full vehicle specifications. Returns year, make, model, trim, body style, engine specs (cylinders, displacement, HP), drivetrain, transmission, fuel type, doors, manufacturer, and assembly plant location. Use this for 'decode this VIN', 'what car is this VIN?', 'look up a VIN number', 'what are the specs on this vehicle?', 'identify this car', or any VIN lookup. Works for all US vehicles - cars, trucks, SUVs, motorcycles, trailers.
water
water_levels
Return the latest observed water level from a NOAA Tides & Currents (CO-OPS) station using the keyless public API - U.S. Government public-domain data. Give either a NOAA station id or a lat/lon (the nearest station is chosen automatically). Returns the observed water level relative to the chosen datum (default MLLW), the observation time in local station time, and the sample standard deviation when reported. Use it to check current real-world water level versus prediction.

LiveDataLink — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can LiveDataLink do?
It exposes 284 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: air_quality, bank_health_report, beneficial_owner_screen, bls_indicator, bls_series, book_details and 278 more. The full list with descriptions is on this page — we take it from the server itself via tools/list, not from a README. How MCP servers expose tools in the first place →
What is LiveDataLink mostly used for?
Its tools cluster around congress, cdc and open. That is what this server is built to work with — the grouping comes from the actual tool names, not from a category we assigned.
Is LiveDataLink working right now?
We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 92 of 92 checks got a reply (100.0%), average response time 321 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
How do I connect LiveDataLink?
Copy the ready config from this page — we generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each with the file path that client actually reads. It is a remote server, so there is nothing to install — the client connects to the address.
Does LiveDataLink need an API key?
No. LiveDataLink completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 284 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.
How fast is LiveDataLink?
It answers our handshake in 321 ms on average, which is faster than 44% of all working MCP servers we measure. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
Is LiveDataLink open source?
Yes — it is published under the MIT licence, written in JavaScript and 0 stars on GitHub. The source link is on this page, so you can read exactly what it does with your data before you connect it.
