A catalog shouldn’t need separate integrations for shoppers, apps, and AI agents.
Same catalog. Same discovery job.

A catalog shouldn't need separate integrations for shoppers, apps, and AI agents.
Same catalog. Same discovery job.
SuggestAPI separates the surfaces: direct Search Acceleration API for apps, Agent Gateway for MCP + WebMCP.
You don't need to rip out Algolia, Typesense, Elasticsearch, Meilisearch, or Shopify search to fix discovery.
SuggestAPI sits in front of what you already run. Same stack, same checkout — the query just gets understood properly first.
A citation puts you in the answer. It doesn't close the sale.
After the AI names you, an agent still has to search your catalog, filter by size and budget, and confirm today's price and stock.
Which of those steps breaks most often on your store?
Before you worry about AI citations, type this into your own site search:
"waterproof hiking boots for Iceland in October under $250"
Does it keep all 4 constraints, or just "boots"? That's the kind of request agents will send.
Getting cited by AI is step one.
Step two is harder: an AI shopping agent still has to search your catalog, filter it, compare options, and hand off to checkout.
That's the gap SuggestAPI closes. Same catalog. Discoverable and shoppable by agents, not just mentioned by them.

🚨 𝗝𝗨𝗦𝗧 𝗜𝗡: @Mastercard has signed a broad strategic partnership with @OpenAI.
Agentic commerce just got another major infrastructure push.
The partnership includes Mastercard’s Agent Pay, but CEO @MiebachMichael says it goes much further, covering payments, services growth, and AI transformation.
Mastercard is building around four requirements for agentic commerce:
→ Trust in the payment
→ Trust in the AI agent
→ Trust in the ecosystem
→ Merchant reach
And it now has products targeting each layer:
👉 Agent Pay — tokenized payments for AI agents
👉 Verifiable Intent — captures what the buyer actually authorized
👉 Agentic Trust Intelligence — helps banks and merchants assess AI-initiated transactions
👉 Agent Connect — helps merchants become discoverable to AI agents
Shopify is already among the first major deployments, with Shop Pay using Agent Pay and network tokens.
And Mastercard is making one important bet:
𝗧𝗼𝗸𝗲𝗻𝘀, 𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝗼𝗻𝗲-𝘁𝗶𝗺𝗲 𝘃𝗶𝗿𝘁𝘂𝗮𝗹 𝗰𝗮𝗿𝗱 𝗻𝘂𝗺𝗯𝗲𝗿𝘀.
Miebach says agentic commerce is still in its “early days,” but added that agentic transactions are already “ramping up at impressive weekly growth rates.”
Holiday shopping could be the first big test.
The battle to become the payment infrastructure for AI agents is getting VERY real.
Visa, Mastercard, Stripe, PayPal and others are all moving fast.
Who do you think is best positioned to win the agentic payments race?
Shoppers don't type keywords anymore. They give a brief.
"Hiking boots for Iceland in October under $250"
That's destination + season + budget + features. If your search only matches words, it misses the brief.
SuggestAPI turns it into intent, filters, and context.

Stripe is building visa's replacement and still paying visa while it does it.
@alfongj's read on Link balance:
> 350M+ people pay with @link
> 5M+ businesses run on @stripe
> the balance sits in USDC on @tempo
If @stripe already holds both ends, how long does it keep paying for the road in between?
Transaction protocols can carry a purchase. They can't supply the product understanding that makes the purchase worth starting.
That's the core idea in our new Guide to Agentic Commerce.
SuggestAPI is the discovery layer.

"Waterproof hiking boots for Iceland in October under $250, women's size 9" isn't a keyword. It's a job.
Shoppers now build the shortlist in an AI chat, before the click.
Can an assistant find your products with today's price and today's stock?
Why discovery, decision and measurement moved, and the three stack changes that matter (no replatform):

An API key says who's calling. Not whose permission an agent carries, or when it expires.
We're piloting Principal Agent Protocol (PAP) for guest catalog search: signed mandates that only narrow. Experimental.
Builders: what should a merchant verify first?
How it works, including the six-step handshake and everything the pilot doesn't do:

Scope: guest catalog search only. Experimental, no full PAP conformance claim.
We just submitted our project to the
@OpenAIDevs WebMCP hackathon
AI agents are increasingly capable of helping people research products, compare options, and make purchasing decisions, but most ecommerce websites were designed exclusively for humans.

An assistant should not have to scrape your storefront to discover what your search stack already knows.
