Why BuyWhere?

BuyWhere is the first cross-border product catalog API built for AI agents. We aggregate products from Singapore, Southeast Asia, and US markets into a single, agent-friendly interface.

  • One API — all markets, all retailers

  • Agent-native — built for MCP from day one

  • Real-time — live pricing and availability

  • Developer-first — no SDK needed, just add the server

A2A Protocol

BuyWhere also supports the Agent-to-Agent (A2A) protocol for multi-agent task delegation. View our Agent Card at /.well-known/agent.json.
