**Category:** Government & Public Data | **Website:** [data.inpi.fr/](https://data.inpi.fr/) | **Docs:** [parse.bot/marketplace/e5c8d20e-a536-43c2-8407-9728d2e690be/data-inpi-fr-api](https://parse.bot/marketplace/e5c8d20e-a536-43c2-8407-9728d2e690be/data-inpi-fr-api)

Pay-per-use API proxy for Locus Pro. Each call burns credits from your workspace balance.

## Access

**Base URL:** `https://api.beta.paywithlocus.com/api/wrapped/credits/inpi/`
**Auth:** `Authorization: Bearer <LOCUS_CREDITS_SECRET_KEY>` (an `lcr_` secret key or a scoped `lcac_` agent credential)
**Required header:** `Idempotency-Key: <fresh UUID per call>`. A retry with the same key replays the stored result without a new charge.
**Response:** the provider response after any endpoint-specific normalization. `X-Locus-Credits-Charged` carries the charge and `X-Locus-Credits-Balance` the remaining balance. Insufficient credits return `402` before the provider is called.
**Pricing:** estimated costs below are USD. Locus debits the credit equivalent at your workspace rate.

> Using a Pay With Locus wallet key (`claw_` prefix)? Wallet routes are documented separately: https://docs.paywithlocus.com/wrapped-apis/for-agents

## Endpoints

### Search

Full-text search across INPI databases: patents (brevets), trademarks (marques), companies (RNE entreprises), and industrial designs (dessins et modèles). Results are ranked by relevance and include metadata, applicant information, classifications, and links to detail pages and associated documents. Each record type returns type-specific fields.

**Estimated cost:** Metered

| Field | Type | Required | Description |
|-------|------|----------|-------------|
| `page` | integer | No | Page number for pagination (1-based). |
| `query` | string | Yes | Search terms (name, applicant, SIREN, denomination, representative, keyword). |
| `results_per_page` | integer | No | Number of results per page (1-100). |
| `type` | string | No | Database to search. |

```bash
curl -X POST https://api.beta.paywithlocus.com/api/wrapped/credits/inpi/search \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $LOCUS_CREDITS_SECRET_KEY" \
  -H "Idempotency-Key: $(uuidgen)" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"page":"<integer>","query":"<string>","results_per_page":"<integer>","type":"<string>"}'
