Use Cases

Location-aware customer experiences

See how businesses use AI agents with BigDataCloud to personalize interactions, validate data, and detect fraud through location intelligence.

Personalized Content Based on Visitor Location

A new visitor lands on your site from an unknown region. Your AI Agent queries BigDataCloud's Country By IP Address API, retrieves the visitor's country and city with confidence area data, and personalizes greetings, currency, and language. Visitors experience location-aware content without manually selecting preferences.

Lead Validation Before CRM Entry

A prospect submits a contact form with email and phone. Your AI Agent validates both through BigDataCloud's Email Address Verification and Phone Number Validation APIs, checking syntax, domain validity, and carrier information. Clean data enters your CRM while invalid contacts get flagged for review.

Fraud Detection on High-Value Transactions

A customer initiates a large purchase from an unfamiliar IP. Your AI Agent retrieves BigDataCloud's Hazard Report for the IP address, checking VPN detection, proxy status, and blacklist presence. Risk scoring informs whether to proceed, require additional verification, or flag for manual review.

FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

How accurate is BigDataCloud's IP geolocation?

BigDataCloud provides city-level accuracy with a unique confidence area feature that defines the maximum possible service area for an IP. Accuracy varies by region and IP type, with residential IPs being more precise than mobile or VPN addresses. The agent includes confidence data in responses.

Can the agent perform reverse geocoding with timezone data?

Yes. The agent uses BigDataCloud's Reverse Geocoding With Timezone API to convert coordinates to addresses while simultaneously retrieving timezone, UTC offset, and daylight saving status. One API call returns both location and time context.

What BigDataCloud API permissions does Tars need?

Tars needs a BigDataCloud API key with access to the specific endpoints you want to use. Most APIs include 10,000 free monthly queries. Enter your API key in the Tars dashboard. We use read-only access and never modify your BigDataCloud data.

Does Tars cache BigDataCloud geolocation results?

No. Tars queries BigDataCloud APIs in real-time during conversations. IP geolocation, validation results, and risk assessments are fetched live. We do not maintain a separate database of location data.

Can the agent detect VPN and proxy usage?

Yes. BigDataCloud's Hazard Report API identifies VPN, proxy, Tor exit node, and hosting provider usage. The agent retrieves this data to inform fraud prevention decisions. Risk thresholds are configurable in your agent logic.

How is this different from using BigDataCloud's free APIs directly?

Free APIs require coding and separate integration. Tars AI Agents add location intelligence to conversations naturally. Questions like 'Where is this user from?' trigger instant geolocation without technical implementation. Plus, Tars combines multiple data sources in one workflow.

What happens if BigDataCloud cannot geolocate an IP?

Some IPs, particularly anonymized or newly allocated ranges, may return limited data. The agent handles partial results gracefully, providing whatever information is available and noting confidence levels. It can fall back to country-level data when city-level is unavailable.

Can the agent validate international phone numbers?

Yes. BigDataCloud's Phone Number Validation API supports international numbers. The agent can infer country from IP or accept explicit country codes. It returns carrier information, line type, and formatting for numbers globally.
