find_businesses | Search the DouxProcess Directory for US businesses by what the person needs (roofer, electrician, insurance agency...) and where (a city and state, a ZIP, or a state).

verify_license | Look up a license by number, business name or phone and say which listings carry it and how it was checked. When nothing matches, tell the person to check the issuer's own lookup; never say a license is valid without a match. params: number, name, phone, issuer |
