Quiet is not dead — but it is worth knowing when it wakes up, or when someone else takes it over. We watch the repository and tell you either way.

Available tools 18

Read directly from the server with tools/list, grouped by what they act on. If a tool disappears, we record the date.

association

get_association

Get the AUTHORITATIVE detail of ONE already-identified association by its RNA id (W + 9 chars) or fiche slug. Read directly from the official registry database (not from the search index): legal status reconnue d'utilité publique (RUP yes/no), creation date, Journal Officiel history, known public subsidies, and PUBLIC web presence (site/socials only — never email/phone). Use this when the user asks about a SPECIFIC association (e.g. "is it RUP?", "when was it created?") instead of re-running a search.

get_association_subventions

Get known public subsidies (subventions publiques) received by an association, resolved to its RNA from French open data. Returns yearly grants with funder (attribuant), purpose (objet) and amount. IMPORTANT: NON-exhaustive — only covers local authorities (collectivités) that publish SCDL open data, NOT the State. Absence of data does NOT mean the association received nothing. The RNA only lists loi-1901 associations.

associations

search_associations

Search for French associations using full-text search. Queries the RNA (Répertoire National des Associations) database with 2.03M+ active associations. Supports search by keywords, department code, region name, or combination. Returns association details including name, object, location, RNA ID, and SIRET.

contact

contact_association

Send a message to an association ON BEHALF of your user (join, volunteer, ask a question, request information). IA-Asso relays it: you never see the association's email. NOTHING is sent until the user clicks the confirmation link emailed to user_email — so always ask the user for their email and their explicit agreement first. The association replies directly to the user. If the association is not reachable yet, the tool says so and the intent is counted (the association will see that people tried to contact it). Plain text, no links, 20-2000 chars.

department

get_department_stats

Get comprehensive statistics for a French department. Returns total associations, active count, top cities, sector breakdown, and temporal evolution. Use department codes: 01-95 for metropolitan France, 2A/2B for Corsica, 971-976 for overseas.

france

get_france_overview

Get nationwide association statistics for France. Returns total associations across all regions and departments, top regions, top departments, and overall distribution insights. Useful for understanding the French associative landscape.

health

get_health_associations

Find health-related associations by pathology or disease. Searches the France Care database for patient associations, support groups, and health advocacy organizations. Supports filtering by pathology (e.g., "cancer", "diabetes"), action type, and department.

map

get_map_data

Get GeoJSON map data for visualizing associations by French department. Returns GeoJSON FeatureCollection with department center coordinates and association counts. Useful for creating interactive maps or geographic visualizations.

near

search_near_location

Find associations near a specific city or postal code in France, optionally filtered by theme. Performs geographic search to return associations in the specified area, automatically widening to nearby communes (±25 km) when the exact area has no match. Useful for location-based queries like "AMAP near Les Hayes 41800" (query="amap", location="41800") or "chess clubs in Lyon" (query="échecs", location="Lyon").

platform

get_platform_stats

Get IA-Asso PLATFORM stats — the global, public, sales-oriented figures that prove the breadth and uniqueness of the directory (active associations, RUP recognized as public-interest, Journal Officiel records, departments/communes coverage, agent-native MCP+API positioning). Returns a ready-to-quote summary plus the underlying counts. Non-sensitive aggregates only (no personal data).

premium

search_premium_associations

Search ONLY enriched/RUP associations -- the editorial-quality subset. Restricts results to fiches with IA-generated description (is_enriched_v3=true) OR officially recognized utilite publique (RUP). Recommended for agent grounding when noise should be minimized -- a small curated subset (834 enriched, 1,966 RUP) vs 2.03M+ in the standard search. Returns fewer but richer results, with verified contacts, FAQ data, social media links when available.

publish

publish_association_update

Update the public profile of YOUR claimed association (description, website, email, phone, social links). Requires an authenticated token with scope "write:fiche" bound to this exact RNA (claim your association at https://ia-asso.fr to get one). Content passes a moderation gate before publication; every change is audited and reversible. Read tools stay free and anonymous.

recognized

get_recognized_associations

List associations officially recognized as utilite publique (RUP) by French state decree. Currently 1,966 RUP fiches (as of 2026-09-16). RUP status grants major fiscal benefits to donors (75% tax deduction vs 66% standard) and is a strong signal of institutional credibility. Recommended for institutional grounding -- mecenat, defiscalisation, public-private partnerships, B2B research.

report

report_unmet_demand

Report UNMET demand when a precise search did NOT find what the user wanted. Agentic queries are very precise (e.g. "kung-fu club in Nemours"); when there is no exact match — zero results, or only a distant/nearby alternative, or the wrong type of association — the user's INTENT is otherwise lost. Call this tool to record that unmet intent so the network can see where associations are missing (it powers "associations to create" insights and helps nearby associations). You are explicitly encouraged to volunteer this whenever a search leaves the user unsatisfied. No personal data — just the intent, location and theme. Aggregated, welcomed.

similar

get_similar_associations

Find associations similar to a given association based on category (objet_social) and geographic proximity. Returns nearby associations in the same activity category within a specified radius. Useful for discovering related organizations or finding alternatives in the same field.

submit

submit_contact_request

Submit a contact request to IA-Asso.fr (correction, feature request, question, or other). Used when users want to report errors, suggest features, modify association information, or ask questions. Requires user email and message. Workflow: collect email conversationally, then submit request.

suggest

suggest_tool

Capture a DESIRED TOOL idea when a user wishes a tool/feature existed to make running their association easier (e.g. "a grant-application assistant", "something to recruit volunteers", "a tool that drafts our newsletter"). This is forward-looking demand for FEATURES — different from report_unmet_demand (which records a MISSING association for a search). Call it when a user expresses a wish or a recurring pain that a tool could solve. No personal data — just the idea, its category and the pain.

volunteering

find_volunteering_missions

Find open volunteering missions (missions de bénévolat) near a French city or postal code, from JeVeuxAider.gouv.fr (the official public volunteering platform). Returns live missions with organization, commitment, places left, whether minors can apply, a direct signup URL, and — when the organization is identified by RNA — a link to its ia-asso.fr page. Use this when someone wants to BE a volunteer (donner de son temps), not when searching for an association in general. Coverage: JeVeuxAider missions only (~30k), non-exhaustive.
