Browse all toolsLatest snapshots
Canonical entry — dates first, then national provider-list catalog metadata before any download.
What FCC broadband availability and challenge snapshot dates are published right now? For the latest availability date, show me the provider-list download metadata (file name, record count, file_id).
California coverage files
State-scoped coverage browse with honest client-side filtering when the catalog returns multi-state rows.
On the latest FCC availability snapshot, list fixed-broadband location coverage download files for California. Return file_id, file_name, and record_count for rows where state_fips is 06.
Challenge filings in progress
Challenge catalog + category filter — separate from availability/coverage data.
For the latest FCC challenge snapshot, list files in the 'Fixed Challenge - In Progress' category. Summarize how many records are in progress in California vs Texas.
Download provider list
Only downloads when explicitly asked — national CSV covers all states, not a single-state ISP search.
Get the latest FCC national provider-list file metadata, then download that file and give me the presigned URL.
Where does this broadband data come from?
The FCC Broadband Data Collection (BDC) public map API published at broadbandmap.fcc.gov — ISP availability filings, provider lists, and challenge-process exports refreshed on FCC's publication schedule.
Do I need an FCC account to use this?
Yes. Sign in to the FCC Broadband Map with a free account, generate an API token under Manage API Access, and connect that email + token once in MCPBundles.
Can an agent look up broadband at a street address?
Not on this MCP surface. These tools list snapshot dates, browse bulk download catalogs, and fetch CSV/ZIP files — not point-level address or lat/lon lookups.
