How businesses use Census bureau + Lyro

Each card is one request a support team gets, and the Census bureau actions Lyro runs to close it.

  • insights

    Answer a demographic question about a place

    Lyro pulls the American Community Survey estimates for the area in question, reads the data profile that summarises them, and adds the current population estimate so the answer carries a date, not just a number.

    Get ACS 5-Year EstimatesQuery ACS Data ProfileGet Population Estimates
  • link

    Turn a street address into its census geography

    Lyro geocodes the address and returns the tract, block group, and county it falls in, resolves coordinates the other way round, and runs a whole address list through in one pass.

    Geocode Address with GeographyGeocode CoordinatesBatch Geocode Addresses
  • storage

    Size the business base in a local market

    Lyro pulls establishment and employment counts for a county or ZIP code and reads the Economic Census behind them, so a territory decision rests on how much activity is actually there.

  • database

    Find the right variable before pulling a number

    Lyro lists the datasets that exist, reads the variables each one publishes, and checks what a specific variable actually measures, so the figure returned answers the question that was asked.

How it works

Get started in 3 steps

Connect once, then just ask. There is no workflow builder to learn and nothing to maintain — Lyro reads the Census bureau actions it has and picks the ones a request needs.

  1. 01

    Connect Census bureau

    Authorize the Census bureau account your team already uses — one consent screen, no API keys, no mapping tables. Lyro can only do what you granted that account, and you can disconnect it at any time.

  2. 02

    Tell your agent what you need

    Describe the job the way you would hand it to a teammate. Lyro maps it to the Census bureau actions that close it and chains as many as the request needs.

  3. 03

    Watch it work

    The agent runs the actions inside the conversation the customer is already in, so nobody copies data between tabs and your team can take over at any point.

FAQ

Everything else about Census bureau

Setup, permissions, and the limits of what Lyro can do inside Census bureau.

  • Both are available and they answer different questions. Get ACS 1-Year Estimates is the more current release; Get ACS 5-Year Estimates pools five years, which is what makes it usable for small geographies the 1-year release does not publish. Query ACS Supplemental Estimates and Query ACS Comparison Profiles sit alongside them for smaller areas and period-over-period reads.

  • Because census geography is versioned. List Geocoder Benchmarks returns the address-file versions and List Geocoder Vintages the geography versions, and Geocode Address for Census Geographies resolves against the pair you pick - so a tract Lyro returns today lines up with the vintage your own data was coded against.

  • Puerto Rico has its own actions - Geocode Puerto Rico Address and Geocode Puerto Rico Address with Geography - separate from the main geocoder, and nothing else in the toolkit geocodes outside the US. For data rather than addresses, Query International Database and Query International Trade Timeseries do reach beyond the country.

  • Yes. Get TIGERweb ACS Generalized Boundaries returns generalised boundary geometry for census areas, Query TIGERweb Layer queries a specific layer directly, and Get TIGERweb Map Service Metadata describes what each service exposes, so a figure can be paired with the polygon it belongs to.
