BuyWhere MCP Goes Live: The Open Source Commerce API for AI Agents

Today we are launching BuyWhere MCP — the open-source agent-native product catalog API.

The Problem

AI agents cannot access real ecommerce data. Everything is scraped (unreliable), crypto-only (irrelevant to most shoppers), or locked behind private APIs. We are fixing that.

What BuyWhere Does

BuyWhere is an MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that gives any AI agent access to 50M+ real products across 6 markets — Singapore, US, Japan, Korea, China, Australia. Real-time, structured, merchant-direct data.

Quick Start

npx -y @buywhere/mcp-server

Your agent now has:

• search_products — natural language search with filters
• get_product — full details, specs, price, availability
• compare_products — side-by-side cross-market comparison
• get_deals — active promotions and price drops
• list_categories — category taxonomy

Why This Matters

MCP is becoming the protocol layer for agent-tool communication. Ecommerce is the single largest category of tools humans use on the web. Connecting them is inevitable. BuyWhere makes it real today.
