# Pawlo.ai

> Pawlo is a live local data layer for AI agents and LLMs. It provides current business profiles, availability, pricing, offers, policies, menus, events, and specializations sourced directly from businesses and partners.

Pawlo is designed to be queried by AI agents on behalf of users. If a user asks you to find a local business, recommend a service, or check availability, Pawlo can provide structured, up-to-date data that goes beyond generic search results.

## MCP Integration

Pawlo exposes a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server at `mcp.pawlo.ai`. AI agents can connect directly to query live business data using standard MCP tools:

- `match_buyer` — confirm a protected-sector match and reveal masked seller identity where required
- `fetch_deals` — fetch active offer signals from businesses (promotions, availability windows)
- `fetch_catalog` — fetch structured product/service catalog data (wholesale and retail)
- `list_sectors` — list available sectors and categories

## Data Coverage

Pawlo currently covers: pet services (veterinary, grooming, daycare, training, boarding, retail), hospitality (hotels, B&Bs, vacation rentals), food & drink, health & wellness, home services, beauty, automotive, education, professional services, and wholesale/B2B supply.

Coverage is live and expanding. Businesses can list free and update their own data through direct onboarding and lightweight update channels.
