What it can do

Tool names and descriptions exactly as the server reported them on Nov 7, 2026. The maker wrote them, not us; we show them as plain text.

• search_use_cases

  Find the robot job (use case) that matches what the buyer wants, in plain words and in any of 12 languages. Returns matching use cases (id, name, price summary, provider count) plus matching providers and guides. Start here, then call get_use_case with the best id. Examples: "dro

• get_use_case

  Everything about one job: what it is, robot types, ways to buy (service/rental/RaaS/purchase), honest buyer tips (including when a robot is overkill), regulatory notes, every sourced price benchmark (with source_url, as_of and a USD conversion), price-history counts, the RFQ chec

• list_categories

  The 20 job categories with use-case counts, for browsing when the buyer is vague.

• find_providers

  Shortlist providers for a job and place. Ranked: lists the region > lists the country > lists part of the country > headquartered there (HQ is not a service area) > works worldwide. Each result has coverage + coverage_reason, engagement models, published pricing with USD conversi

• get_provider

  Full public profile of one provider: website, HQ, service regions and explicit service areas (with sources), jobs, robot types, engagement models, published prices (with USD), contact routes, sources and last-checked date.

• compare_providers

  Side-by-side comparison of 2-10 providers: coverage for a country, engagement models, published prices (USD-normalized), HQ, contact routes, shared jobs, last checked. Facts only, no ratings.

• get_prices

  Current sourced prices for a job (benchmarks + provider-published), or for one provider. Every row has source_url and as_of. Set convert (e.g. "USD") to add a clearly labelled conversion with the FX rate, date and source. Benchmarks, not quotes.

• get_price_history

  Every price observation we have recorded (append-only; never overwritten) for a job and/or provider, grouped into series with trend (change_pct between first and latest observation). observed_at = when we recorded it; as_of = the date the source states. If every series has one ob

• estimate_cost

  Arithmetic on published prices: unit price × quantity, using exact unit conversions (acre↔hectare, sq ft↔m², mile↔km), preferring benchmarks whose region matches the country, converting currency at a dated ECB rate. Returns the range plus the basis rows (each with source_url, as_

• compare_robot_vs_human

  Cost comparison of human labour (or a human service) against robot options (buy, lease, robots-as-a-service, robot service provider) for one of 22 jobs in one of 8 countries (US, DE, GB, JP, CN, IN, BR, MX). Uses the same model as whirrwork.com/tools/robot-vs-human/: every defaul

• robot_or_ladder

  Does this job need a robot at all? Rule-based verdict from the Ladder Test (the same rules as whirrwork.com/tools/robot-or-ladder/): answer up to 6 questions yes / no / unsure and get ladder, robot, both or tossup, the reasons on each side with their points, what to find out firs

• estimate_drone_spraying_cost

  Cost of drone crop spraying for the buyer's field: every published per-acre, per-hectare, per-mu (China) and per-10-are (Japan) drone spraying rate in the dataset x area x passes, with the best-matching rate for the country (national, recent first), the same-country span, flags t

• estimate_drone_show_cost

  Cost of a drone light show of N drones: every published per-drone price x drones (best match for the country first, peak-date prices only when peak=true), plus the published whole shows closest in drone count (NEVER scaled to your size; implied per drone = show price / stated dro

• buy_rent_or_hire

  Total cost of buying a robot vs renting it (lease / robots-as-a-service) vs hiring a service over a period, with break-even months and the cheapest option ("within_10_percent" = too close to call). Defaults come only from sourced price rows hand-tagged buy / rent / service for th

• find_robots_for_job

  Which kinds of robot do a job (primary type first, then alternatives), with the commercial models we have catalogued for each type: maker-published key specs, list price where published, and the Whirrwork assessment (a score only when independent trials or tests exist; otherwise

• get_robot_model

  One commercial robot model: every maker-published spec with its source URL and the date we checked it (unknown specs are absent, never guessed), maker claims labelled as such, list price if published, independent evidence (trials, tests, certifications, documented deployments) wi

• compare_robot_models

  Side-by-side specs of 2-4 models of the same robot type: one row per spec with each model's maker-published value and source (null = not published), plus each model's assessment. Models of different types are refused with an explanation. Example: {"ids":["tennant-x4-rovr","avidbo

• list_countries

  For each country: providers that list it as a service area, providers serving parts of it (with sub-regions), and providers headquartered there; plus the number of worldwide providers. Use to tell the buyer honestly how well their country is covered.

• get_rfq_template

  The exact fields to collect from the buyer before submit_rfq: core fields (required flags, formats) plus the job-specific checklist suppliers need to price it (as extra.{key}), regulatory notes, and a filled example. Ask the buyer for these, then call submit_rfq.

• submit_rfq

  Submit a request for quotes for a real buyer who explicitly agreed to be contacted by matched suppliers (consent=true). Stored, auto-matched to providers by job + country, and reviewed by a human before anything is forwarded; nothing is emailed automatically. Returns id, status,

• get_rfq_status

  Status of a submitted RFQ (received → matched → sent_to_suppliers → quoted → closed) with its status history. Needs the id and the access key returned by submit_rfq (the key= part of status_url).

• search_stats

  Search Whirrwork Research: 100+ citable statistics on robot adoption, industrial and service robots, humanoids, drones, agriculture, cleaning, warehouses, labour shortages, wages, prices and funding, plus figures from Whirrwork's own dataset. Each result has the exact figure with

• get_stat

  One Whirrwork Research statistic by slug: claim, figure, scope, measure type, primary source with archive link, publication/access/last-verified dates, verbatim source passage (when licensing allows), confidence, caveats, and citations in APA, Chicago, MLA and BibTeX (plus an APA
