# LLCDrop API

> A read-only JSON API for Florida business filings: search businesses, look one up by id or state document number, list officers, and read daily filing counts, county and statewide stats.

## Docs

- [Full reference (Markdown)](https://api.llcdrop.com/docs.md): every endpoint, parameter, limit and error in one page
- [OpenAPI 3.1](https://api.llcdrop.com/openapi.json): machine-readable spec for code generators and tools
- [Developer docs](https://llcdrop.com/developers): the same reference for people, with copy-ready samples
- [MCP server](https://api.llcdrop.com/mcp): connect Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code or Claude Desktop to the same API as read-only tools, with the same Bearer key

## Quick start

1. Create a key with the data scope under Settings, API keys at llcdrop.com.
2. Send it as Authorization: Bearer sk_live_YOUR_KEY on every call.
3. Check the key and what is left of your limits:

curl -H "Authorization: Bearer sk_live_YOUR_KEY" "https://api.llcdrop.com/v1/me"

4. Search with a filter, for example q, city, zip or filed_from. On a 429, wait Retry-After seconds.
