Tools
| Tool | Description | Behaviour |
|---|---|---|
| get_agency | Return the full evidence review for one agency slug: the industry rank or an unranked standing, services, signals with URLs and retrieval dates, profile URL, and contact URL. A filtered search can show a different position. No numeric score. | Read-only |
| get_methodology | Explain how Agency Standings publishes ranks. Real rankings, earned through evidence: client results, testimonials and published work. Agencies can never pay us: not for a rank, a sponsorship or a newsletter spot. The only way up is evidence. Agencies can never sponsor or advertise on Agency Standings or the Big Moves newsletter. Sponsors are products, software tools, AI companies and other non-agency brands. Rank numbers are included. A numeric score is not. | Read-only |
| get_started | Start here. Ask whether the user is a brand looking for an agency or an agency that wants to join. Brand path uses the search tools. Agency path uses join_as_agency, then the private agency tools after the profile is claimed. Qualified briefs are not open yet. | Read-only |
| join_as_agency | Store a pending agency application. Collect the agency name, https website, contact email, industries, services, and a city or region. Do not collect a phone number or street address. We review the evidence before listing or ranking. No one can pay to be ranked. Rankings come only from evidence. | Changes data |
| list_industries_and_services | List industries and service types. Ecom, Legal, SaaS, Finance, and Service are ranked. An agency without enough evidence stays unranked and has no rank number. | Read-only |
| search_agencies | Search Agency Standings. Each result includes its industry, services, evidence level, a one-line evidence summary, profile URL, and contact URL. A plain-language query drops filler words such as agency, firm, best, and top, maps words such as lawyer, Shopify, or software onto an industry, and ranks agencies that match any remaining word. If a location matches nobody, that location is left off and the response includes a note. Ecom, Legal, SaaS, Finance, and Service include rank numbers. Agencies without enough evidence stay unranked and have no rank number. A service, location, or zip filter numbers the matches from 1 in the existing industry order. get_agency keeps each agency's industry rank. Results do not include a numeric score. | Read-only |
| search_work | Returns credited examples of agency work, including the client link, image, agency, source, and contact link, plus dateShipped and featuredIn when the library has them, so you can show real examples of agency work, then offer to connect the user with the agency that built it. | Read-only |
