Hi Product Hunt! 👋 I'm Param, founder of Agora. Agora is an AI search engine for e-commerce products. We've indexed 10 million products sold on 25,000 Shopify and WooCommerce stores and made them easy to purchase with a single cart transaction. Think of a decentralized Amazon. We launched the search engine and merchant app on Product Hunt a few weeks ago and received incredible feedback and support from the community. Today I’m excited to launch the Agora API, a complete set of endpoints to power an end-to-end shopping experience. The Agora API enables developers to search, purchase, and track orders for 10 million products sold on 25,000 Shopify and WooCommerce stores. You can search by text, image, URL, or location to find products that your users are looking for. Why use the Agora API? 🔸 We save you time from having to index millions of products across thousands of stores. 🔸 We take care of payment routing to stores with AI agents and provide you with detailed order tracking. 🔸 We refresh the entire dataset every 24 hours to keep variant and stock information up to date. The Agora API is free to test. After that, we charge a subscription fee of $2,490 / month for up to 10,000 monthly search requests or $4,490 / month for unlimited monthly search requests. After you subscribe, we send you an automated email with your provisioned API key and onboarding information. We provide documentation and 24 / 7 support to all developers at support@searchagora.com. This includes helping with an order, issuing refunds, and exchanging products. What are use-cases for the Agora API? 🔹 AI training data 🔹 Marketplaces 🔹 Shopping assistants 🔹 Live shopping experiences 🔹 Search & discovery tools 🔹 Wallets 🔹 Vertical SaaS I originally launched Agora as a side project on HackerNews to find a pair of red shoes for my wife last Christmas. I quickly realized that some of the best products on the internet are sold by small online stores that struggle to get the same visibility as large retailers. I started Agora on a mission to democratize online commerce. If you sell the best pair of red shoes in the world, customers should be able to find it. With the Agora API, we're able to amplify this mission to other apps as well. We're starting with Shopify and WooCommerce stores and will soon have products from other e-commerce platforms and marketplaces including Amazon, Walmart, Etsy, Temu, Squarespace, Wix, and more. I'd love your feedback!

Thank you @masump! The API endpoints are designed to be generic, but they are flexible in terms of what you can build with them. We’ve seen it used across different industries/usecases, from search engines to digital wallets. You can check out the docs here for more details: https://docs.searchagora.com/api...

This is a cool idea, Param! How well does it handle shipping cost/unavailability? Each store charges different shipping rates and a lot of stores don’t even ship to specific markets (countries).

Thanks, @julius_forster! We charge a flat fee a $4.99 / product for shipping. We haven't figured out how to dynamically detect the shipping price for a product. Open to any ideas on this. We currently only index stores that are based in the US and ship to the US. Every Shopify and WooCommerce store has publicly available routes to retrieve store, product, and inventory information. For example, every Shopify store has a file for general store information appears at [Base URL]/meta.json (example here). Our crawler uses this specific file to detect the 'country' and 'ships_to_countries' fields. When you retrieve product details via the API, we dynamically check the price, stock, and variant information. This ensures that we only sell products that are currently available, at the real-time price. Then we recrawl the entire dataset every day to add, edit, and delete products from all stores on Agora.

Hey @param_jaggi3, love the API! How does Agora handle commissions if a marketplace wants to earn a % of sales from products listed through the API? Is this in your roadmap?

@stefan_williams Thanks! A marketplace can change the 'Total Amount' charged to the card sent on the Order request. This allows them to customize a fixed or variable commission that they take. We also have a few out-of-the-box options available like offsetting the order's carbon emissions and adding a tip. More in our roadmap. That said, I think we need to make payment flow and available customizations more clear in our docs. We'll work on this over the next couple of days.

@param_jaggi3 thanks Param - so I assume you'd be charging slightly more than the traditional price?

@stefan_williams We charge exactly the real-time price of the product. When you retrieve product details via the API, we dynamically check the price, stock, and variant information. This ensures that we only sell products that are currently available, at the real-time price. If the Total Amount is adjusted or if the out-of-the-box options are set to true, we charge slightly more than the default Cart price. Feel free to email me at param @searchagora.com about your specific use-case. Happy to help get you set up.

I love APIs, why reinvent the wheel when there is something like this that is so innovative and powerful already for e-commerce search and transactions. Shopify and Woocommerce combined into one solution is one of thje best featutres of Agora and now developers can build their own custom experiences. Thanks Agora for sharing the fun.
