A company profile by CUIT carries registry and tax identity, directors and partners with their stakes, corporate filings with links to the official notice, BCRA credit status bank by bank, bounced cheques, foreign trade, public contracts, and sanctions, with optional campos blocks such as beneficiarios or estados_contables. It also searches companies with combinable filters, finds people by name, lists open public tenders, ranks importers by FOB value, and serves free economic series such as dolar_mep, ipc_mensual, and riesgo_pais with inflation and peso-to-dollar conversion helpers. ## For AI agents Look up an Argentine company or person by CUIT, search companies with filters, find open public tenders, and pull exchange-rate, inflation, and other economic series. ## Scope Does not file tax returns, issue invoices, or cover companies outside Argentina.

Through Jentic the agent searches for 'look up an Argentine company by CUIT', loads the empresa operation with its input schema, and requests the profile with the api-key header injected at call time. The agent summarises the registry identity, BCRA credit status, bounced cheques, and sanctions for review. Example prompt: Call GET /empresa with cuit set to the supplier's CUIT and campos set to beneficiarios, then summarise directors, BCRA status, and any sanctions ### Prospect lists from the company registry Sales teams build target lists of Argentine companies that match a profile. GET /busqueda combines filters such as jurisdiccion, actividad, estado_fiscal, capital, and flags like importador, exportador, or empleador, and pages with pagina. GET /sugerencias autocompletes company names for forms at no credit cost. Example prompt: Call GET /busqueda with jurisdiccion set to Córdoba, exportador set to true, and deuda_bcra set to false, then list the first page of companies ### Peso revenue in real terms Finance teams reporting Argentine results need figures adjusted for inflation and the exchange rate. GET /convertir takes up to 120 month:amount pairs in montos and a target a such as usd_mep or ars_hoy, returning the rate or factor used per month. GET /inflacion chains monthly CPI between desde and hasta, and these series calls are free. Example prompt: Call GET /convertir with montos set to 2025-01:42000000,2025-02:45100000 and a set to usd_mep, then report each month in dollars ### Public tender monitoring Companies that bid on government work watch for new calls. GET /llamados returns public tenders still without award from national and provincial official bulletins, with organismo, objeto, rubro, expediente, and opening date, filterable by rubro, organismo, and abiertas. Example prompt: Call GET /llamados with rubro set to construcción and abiertas set to true, then list organismo, objeto, and opening date for each result ## Key endpoints | Method | Path | Description | | --- | --- | --- | | GET | `/empresa` | Full company profile by CUIT | | GET | `/busqueda` | Search companies with combinable filters | | GET | `/persona` | Person profile by CUIT | | GET | `/llamados` | Search open public tenders | | GET | `/serie` | Economic series between dates | | GET | `/convertir` | Convert peso amounts to dollars or today's pesos | | GET | `/inflacion` | Cumulative inflation between two months | ## Key resources - **Companies** — Company profile by CUIT, filtered company search, autocomplete, and importer rankings - **People** — Search directors and partners by name and read a person's profile by CUIT - **Public tenders** — Open public tenders detected in official bulletins - **Economic series** — Series catalogue, values between dates, cumulative inflation, and peso conversion - **Credits** — Available credits and current month usage ## AI readiness This API is usable in Jentic One now.

Through Jentic you install once, import it from the API Directory, store the key once, and your agent calls it. - **Permission scoping:** The CUIT, search filters, and series names all travel in the query string, so rules bound which operations your agent may call, not which company it looks up. Limit the agent to the operations it needs, such as the economic series routes, and credit-spending lookups like /empresa or /persona are not included unless you add them. - **Credential handling:** Your Indicadores Argentina API key is stored once, encrypted, by your own Jentic One instance and injected at execution time. It never enters the agent's prompt, logs, or context. - **Discovery method:** Agents search Jentic by intent such as 'look up an Argentine company by CUIT' or 'get the dolar MEP series', and Jentic returns the matching operation with its input schema so the agent sends cuit, tipo, or montos correctly without reading the Spanish reference docs. ## Related APIs - **OpenCorporates API** — Global open database of company registry records - **Frankfurter API** — Current and historical foreign exchange rates from public sources - **ExchangeRate-API** — Exchange rate conversion across many currencies ## FAQ ### What authentication does the API de Indicadores Argentina use? The API de Indicadores Argentina authenticates with an API key sent in the api-key header, per its OpenAPI spec, which applies it globally to its routes. Keys are created on the Indicadores API page at indicadores.ar. Through Jentic the key is stored encrypted by your own Jentic One instance and injected at call time. ### Which calls cost credits with the API de Indicadores Argentina? The spec charges credits only on successful responses: /empresa, /persona, and each page of /busqueda, /busqueda-personas, /llamados, and /importadores cost credits, and campos blocks on /empresa add more only when they return data. The series, inflation, conversion, autocomplete, and credit balance routes are free. Each billable response carries x-creditos-cobrados and x-creditos-restantes headers. ### What are the rate limits for the API de Indicadores Argentina? The OpenAPI spec states a per-minute request limit for each API key in the Límites section of its description, and returns HTTP 429 when it is exceeded. For higher volume or continuous integration, the spec points to contacto@indicadores.ar. ### Is there an Indicadores Argentina MCP server? You don't need an MCP server to give your agent the API de Indicadores Argentina. Jentic connects it directly from the API Directory: import it, store your API key once, and your agent calls the company, tender, and economic series operations it needs, discovered on demand. ### Can I limit what my agent is allowed to do with the API de Indicadores Argentina? Yes. For example, write a rule that allows only the free routes, GET /serie, GET /inflacion, GET /convertir, and GET /series, so the agent can work with economic data without spending credits on company or person lookups. Every call it makes is logged. ### How do I look up a company by CUIT through Jentic? Search Jentic for 'look up an Argentine company by CUIT', load the empresa operation, and execute it with the cuit and an optional campos list.
