REST walkthrough

1. Size it across a whole state (free)

state aggregatebash

curl "https://opsblu.com/v1/stats?state=washington&category=law-firms"

# → "tracking": {"ads": 412, "server_side": 91, "ads_no_tracking": 321, "analytics": 1180, "consent_tool": 940}

2. Search with the two filters that matter

has_ads=true & server_side=falsebash

curl -H "Authorization: Bearer ob_live_YOUR_KEY" \
  "https://opsblu.com/v1/businesses?state=washington&city=seattle&category=law-firms&has_ads=true&server_side=false&has_email=true"

# every item carries signals.ads_no_tracking = true

3. Open one record to see what they run

The full record lists ad platforms, pixels, analytics tools and consent tooling, which is the whole first paragraph of your outreach email.

GET /v1/businesses/{id}bash

curl -H "Authorization: Bearer ob_live_YOUR_KEY" https://opsblu.com/v1/businesses/ob_sea_law_0042

# → "marketing": {"analytics":["GA4"],"ads_platforms":["Google Ads","Meta Ads"],"pixels":["Google Ads Tag","Meta Pixel"],
#                 "server_side_tracking": false, "consent_tool": ""}
#   "credits_used": 3, "balance_remaining": 1247

Agent prompt

Paste into Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor with the OpsBlu MCP server connected.

prompttext

Using OpsBlu, find law firms in Seattle, Washington that run ads (has_ads=true) without server-side tracking (server_side=false) and have an email on record. Show me the count and the first 15 names with their ad platforms. Then open the 5 that run both Google Ads and Meta Ads and draft a two-sentence outreach email for each that names the specific pixels they have and what they are missing.

Cost

Typical city × category yields 20–40 matches. 30 records ≈ 90 credits ≈ $0.90. Opening only the ones with an email on record is usually ≈ 60% of that.

Standard record 3 credits ($0.03), hot record 10 credits ($0.10), billed once per unique record per calendar month. Aggregates and search are free. Pricing.

Gotchas

Point them at the fix as well as the problem: TagFrog installs server-side GA4/Ads/Meta tracking with consent on Shopify and WordPress, and agency keys are free (bluefroganalytics.com/tagfrog).
A business can run ads without any pixel at all; check `pixels` on the full record before you claim they have "broken" tracking.
