Each result returns name, address, phone, and website, giving you the core NAP-plus-site data needed for local listings and lead records in one structured object.
Results include rating and reviewCount, so you can rank businesses by reputation and benchmark a client's score against local competitors.
The categories array classifies each business (e.g. "SEO Agency"), letting you filter results to the exact industry you are targeting.
The location and language fields scope the search to a market, so a query for "plumbers" returns businesses in the city you specify rather than a global mix.
Use cases
Local SEO Audit
Pull business listings data to verify NAP consistency, monitor review scores, and benchmark against local competitors.
Lead Generation
Build targeted business prospect lists by searching for specific industries in specific locations.

console.log(data);The business data API for developers — names, NAP, ratings & categories by keyword and location
The Business Info API returns structured local-business data for any keyword and location — name, address, phone, website, rating, review count, categories, and hours. It is local-listings data as JSON, built for lead generation and local SEO audits.
It is the local-data tool in YepAPI's SEO suite. Pair it with the Domain Technologies and Domain Metrics endpoints — one key — to enrich the websites it returns with stack and authority data, turning a listing into a full prospect record.
What is a business data API?
A business data API returns local-business listings for a search as structured records rather than a map of pins. For a keyword and location you get an array of businesses, each with name, address, phone, website, rating, reviewCount, and a categories array. That is the data behind local search results, delivered ready to store as leads or audit for NAP consistency. YepAPI serves it at /v1/seo/business/info: post a keyword, a location, and a language, and receive the matching businesses as a clean JSON array you can filter by category or rating.
Build your own lead generation tool
Build a prospecting tool that searches an industry in a target city and returns a ready lead list with phone, website, and rating for each business. Filter by the categories array to keep only your exact niche, and sort by rating or reviewCount to prioritize established players or target low-rated businesses that need help. For local SEO, pull a client's listing to verify name, address, and phone consistency against other directories. Enrich each website with the Domain Technologies API to know each prospect's stack before outreach.
Business info API pricing — $0.03/call
Each search is a flat $0.03 returning the matching businesses for that keyword and location — no per-row add-on. Building a lead list across many cities and industries costs a few dollars. General places APIs gate this behind complex quota systems, and enterprise SEO suites charge $0.10 per call; here it is three cents per search with no quota juggling or subscription, so large prospecting runs stay simple to budget.
Build local lead lists at scale
Loop your target industries across a list of cities, varying the keyword and location fields, to assemble a nationwide prospect database in one batch. Dedupe by website, filter by the categories array to your exact vertical, and score each lead by rating and reviewCount. The structured NAP-plus-website output drops straight into a CRM, and enriching each site with technology or authority data turns a raw listing into a qualified, segmented lead — all at three cents per city-industry search.
