What it does

This endpoint exposes Apollo.io's People Search API through the Locus MPP (Micropayment Protocol), allowing agents to search a database of over 275 million contacts without managing API keys or subscriptions. You POST a query with filters such as job titles, seniority levels, person locations, company domains, and free-text keywords, and receive paginated results (up to 100 per page, max 500 pages).

The endpoint is part of a broader Apollo suite hosted on the Locus MPP gateway that also includes people enrichment, bulk people enrichment, organization enrichment, bulk organization enrichment, organization search, job postings lookup, and news article search. Each call is settled individually via the Tempo L2 payment method using pathUSD (6 decimals). The People Search endpoint charges 5,000 base units per call, which equals $0.005 per request.

Filters available for people search include: q_keywords (free-text), person_titles, person_locations, q_organization_domains, organization_ids, and person_seniorities (with values like founder, c_suite, partner, vp, head, director, manager, senior, entry, intern). Pagination is controlled via per_page (default 25, max 100) and page (max 500). The endpoint accepts POST requests with a JSON body.

Quality

The OpenAPI spec provides a clear request schema with documented filters and pricing, but the probe did not capture a live 402 challenge on HEAD/GET (the endpoint requires POST). No response schema or example response is available, and crawled pages returned only 404 JSON errors. Pricing is documented in the spec's x-payment-info.

Warnings

  • —Probe returned 404 on HEAD and GET; endpoint likely requires POST method only — not necessarily down but liveness unconfirmed via probe
  • —No response schema documented — output structure must be inferred from Apollo.io's own API docs
  • —No example response available from probe or crawl
  • —Several request fields typed as 'string' in the schema appear to actually accept arrays (e.g., person_titles, organization_ids) — check Apollo API docs for correct format
