Frequently asked questions

What is Evendo's World Model?

A structured collection of geographic containers and venue records, accessible through MCP and GraphQL. It connects countries, regions, cities, neighbourhoods and places of interest.

How many MCP tools are available?

Six in tools/list: resolve_place, find_venues, search_venues, list_subareas, get_venue and get_venues. GraphQL separately exposes six root queries.

Do I need an API key?

No authentication is currently required for MCP and for the documented GraphQL POST endpoint. Authentication policy can evolve.

What's the rate limit?

200 requests per minute for both MCP and GraphQL.

What's the difference between Place Score and rating?

place_score is Evendo's proprietary popularity-and-quality assessment on a 0–100 scale; rating is a review average on a 0–5 scale. Higher Place Scores indicate stronger rankings.

Can I filter on Place Score?

In MCP, filter with min_place_score and sort with sort_by: "place_score". In GraphQL, use place_score_gte, place_score_lte and PLACE_SCORE. They are live in both MCP and GraphQL.

How do I count venues in one city?

Paginate results scoped to that city's subtree. nodeCount provides global counts, not a documented scoped total.

Can Evendo calculate travel times or book attractions?

Not through these read-only MCP tools or the GraphQL API. Use additional booking, routing and scheduling integrations.

Why doesn't keyword search understand my question?

Search is lexical, using English stemming but without documented semantic or typo-tolerant matching. Use specific keywords and a separate geographic scope.

Can I commercially redistribute this content?

Do not infer redistribution rights from public endpoint access. Licensing and attribution terms will be published on the Usage and licensing page; until then, contact Evendo before reusing data.
