FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Can my AI automatically find the visit trends for a specific location just by its ID?

Yes! Use the get_trends tool with the POI ID. Your agent will return day-over-day or week-over-week visit changes for that specific location.

How do I identify the POI ID for a specific store or venue?

Use the search_poi tool with keywords like the brand name or address. Your agent will return a list of matching locations along with their unique Placer.ai POI IDs.

Does it support trade area analysis?

Yes! The get_trade_area tool retrieves the True Trade Area (TTA) for any POI, providing the geographic boundaries of where the majority of visitors originate.

How does the OpenAI Agents SDK connect to MCP?

Use MCPServerSse(url=...) to create a server connection. The SDK auto-discovers all tools and makes them available to your agent with full type information.
