FAQ

How fast are tool responses?

Most calls return in 2-8 seconds. BBB uses Cloudflare protection, so responses depend on proxy availability.

Do I need a BBB account?

No. All data is publicly available on bbb.org.

What's the difference between this and the BBB Scraper?

The scraper is for batch jobs — hundreds of business profiles exported as datasets. This MCP server is for real-time AI agent queries — focused results returned directly to your agent.

Why might a request fail?

BBB uses Cloudflare protection. The server uses residential proxies to handle this, but some requests may be blocked. Retry usually works.

Can I use this with ChatGPT?

Yes. Any MCP-compatible client works. Configure the server URL and your Apify API token.
