somebody said on Quora: these are the big four- Foursquare, TripAdvisor, Factual, and Google

TripAdvisor: out of scope for our project
Can I access the API in order to add TripAdvisor data in my reputation management tool or B2B product?

No - the TripAdvisor Content API is intended for consumer-facing (B2C) websites & apps only.

My site does not have a working URL - can I apply?

Websites and apps without working URLs are not eligible for a Content API key. Please resubmit your application once your site has gone live and established a predictable monthly visitor base.
