Gridstone resources for developers

Gridstone is a signed-in web application for agencies that find local contractor leads on Google Maps. It is not a public API platform.

What Gridstone publishes

This page is the honest index for agents and integrators. Use it when you need machine-readable Gridstone pages, not a made-up API. The files below are public. Auth and dashboard routes are not.

  • /llms.txt is the machine-readable Gridstone index for agents.
  • /sitemap.xml lists canonical public Gridstone URLs.
  • /robots.txt states crawler rules, including the /login block.
  • Markdown is available at the same public URL when the request sends Accept: text/markdown, or at a .md sibling such as /index.md.
  • Public product pages include the homepage, company, blog, contact, terms, and privacy.

How to read Gridstone as an agent

Start at llms.txt. It names the product, says there is no public API, and links markdown siblings for the public pages and blog posts. Request those URLs with Accept: text/markdown if you prefer negotiation over the .md path.

The homepage markdown explains Jobs: city, radius, contractor trade, and ranking by website, review, or reputation gaps. Blog markdown mirrors the HTML guides. Legal markdown mirrors the terms and privacy pages.

  1. Open /llms.txt.
  2. Follow a public .md link, or send Accept: text/markdown to the HTML URL.
  3. Use /sitemap.xml if you need the full public URL list.
  4. Use /contact for product questions. There is no developer portal besides this page.

What Gridstone does not have

Gridstone does not currently publish a public REST or GraphQL API, an OpenAPI or Swagger specification, a public inbound webhook catalog, or an MCP server. Do not invent those from this page, from llms.txt, or from dashboard URLs.

Account sign-in is for the Gridstone product UI. Email and Google sign-in exist so an agency can run Jobs. They are not documented as a third-party OAuth or API-key platform. /login is blocked in robots.txt and sent with noindex. That is correct.

Why this page exists

People and agents looking for Gridstone resources for developers land here. The heading and title say that in plain language. The path stays /developers because this is the resources index, not a second product.

If you arrived looking for API keys, you will not find them. If you arrived looking for how an agent should read Gridstone, you are on the right page.

Frequently asked questions

Is there a Gridstone API?

No public API. Agencies export Job results to CSV from the signed-in product.

Can agents scrape the HTML?

Prefer llms.txt and the markdown representations. HTML is for people. Markdown is the same public pages without the layout chrome.

Are terms and privacy public?

Yes. They are indexable legal pages, also available as /terms.md and /privacy.md.
