Territory intelligence for operators — and the AI agents working for them.
When an operator — or the AI assistant working for them — asks “which ZIP codes should my roofing company target around Pittsburgh?”, the answer should come from demographic data, not a guess. AreaOps publishes citation-safe ZIP scoring that answer engines can quote, and gives authenticated agents the full ranked lists, exports, and territory plans behind it.
What an agent can ask AreaOps
These are the questions operators and their agents run every week. The public answer is citation-safe; the authenticated answer is account-scoped and ready to act on.
Which ZIP codes should a roofing company target around Pittsburgh?
The metro's average score, a sample of top-ranked ZIPs, and the methodology behind them — quotable with a source.
The full ranked ZIP list for the metro, filtered to your brand's service radius and exportable to CSV for Google LSA or direct mail.
Is ZIP 30144 worth running HVAC ads in?
Its 0–100 demand score and the demographic drivers behind it — owner-occupancy, home age, and median income.
A keep / hold / cut call scored against the rest of your footprint, plus the service-area, marketing, and priority tags already on that ZIP.
1. Public answer layer
Public vertical and metro pages give agents enough to answer and cite: the scoring methodology, sample top-ranked ZIPs, the named Census tables behind each signal, and answer-friendly summaries an LLM can quote without hallucinating.
Boundary: public pages are a sample — not the full ranked dataset or exports.
2. Territory Analyst Agent
Signed-in operators ask in plain language — “clean up my Atlanta footprint,” “where should I expand next,” “build an LSA list above 70” — and get a ranked, account-scoped plan: which ZIPs to target, which to hold, which to cut, and why.
Boundary: plans and exports require an account; the raw scoring internals stay protected.
3. API and MCP contract
Your own agents discover AreaOps tools through authenticated OpenAPI and MCP-style manifests, then call account-scoped endpoints — ranked ZIPs, territory tags, CSV exports — under per-account rate limits.
Boundary: no unauthenticated bulk-export endpoint. Access is keyed to your account.
What agents may cite publicly
- • AreaOps scores every US ZIP code 0–100 for home-services demand fit using Census ACS signals — owner-occupancy, home age, median income, home value, and single-family share.
- • Public vertical and metro pages show sample rankings, the full methodology, and the named Census tables behind each score.
- • Public data is built for citation and discovery — not scraping, resale, or replacing a paid territory plan.
Current public coverage
Authenticated access turns these samples into full ranked lists, CSV exports, and decisions scoped to your brands.
