Get your BuyWhere API key and run your first product search in 60 seconds

BuyWhere gives AI agents real-time access to prices, availability, and product data across thousands of merchants. As of this week, the self-serve developer API is live — you can get your key and make your first query in under a minute.

Step 1: Request your API key

Go to buywhere.ai/api-keys, enter your email, and submit. You'll receive your key immediately on the page and by email.

No waitlist. No approval required.

Step 2: Make your first query

curl -X POST https://api.buywhere.ai/v1/search \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"query": "noise-cancelling headphones under $200", "country": "SG"}'

You'll get back structured product results: name, price, merchant, availability, and URL.

Step 3: Add BuyWhere to your AI agent

With CrewAI

from crewai_tools import MCPServerAdapter

buywhere_tool = MCPServerAdapter(
    server_params={
        "command": "npx",
        "args": ["-y", "@buywhere/mcp-server"],
        "env": {"BUYWHERE_API_KEY": "YOUR_API_KEY"}
    }
)

With Mastra

import { createMCPClient } from "@mastra/mcp";

const buywhere = createMCPClient({
  transport: {
    type: "stdio",
    command: "npx",
    args: ["-y", "@buywhere/mcp-server"],
    env: { BUYWHERE_API_KEY: "YOUR_API_KEY" }
  }
});

With Claude Desktop

Add to your claude_desktop_config.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "buywhere": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@buywhere/mcp-server"],
      "env": { "BUYWHERE_API_KEY": "YOUR_API_KEY" }
    }
  }
}

What you can query

• Product search: natural language queries, filtered by country and price range
• Price comparison: compare the same product across merchants
• Availability check: real-time in-stock status
• Merchant lookup: find which merchants carry a specific product

Why developers are using BuyWhere

AI agents need real-world data to be useful to shoppers. BuyWhere connects agents to live merchant inventory — no scraping, no rate-limiting headaches, no stale data.

The MCP server exposes clean tool definitions that LLMs understand natively. Your agent can answer "where can I buy X for the best price?" with a single tool call.
