Developer offers AI agents direct access to structured product data via free API

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

A developer has created a free, no-authentication API that allows AI agents to query a structured database of 102 portable power stations. This aims to provide AI models like ChatGPT and Claude with accurate, up-to-date product specifications and pricing, rather than relying on potentially outdated or fabricated information. The API includes endpoints for filtering and sorting products, retrieving specific product scores, and calculating system power needs, all returning data in a consistent JSON format. Additionally, a discovery endpoint follows the MCP (Manifesto for Conversational Programming) standard, enabling AI agents to find and utilize these tools, with a `llms.txt` file to guide citation practices.

    <p>AI assistants are quietly becoming the discovery layer. People don't Google "best power station for a camper van" as much anymore — they ask ChatGPT or Claude. The problem: for a niche like portable power stations, the model usually answers from stale, half-remembered specs an…
