Seven tools: search, cross-retailer comparison, promotions, price changes, new lines, removed lines and catalogue listing. Each call returns up to 200 rows by default, and without a key you still get a live 50-row sample, so you can try it before buying. Full setup is in the API reference.

Your credit pack covers this. No separate MCP plan and no second balance: a pack bought on the pricing page is the same credits whether the records are pulled by your own code or by your assistant. One record returned, one credit.

Let the agent buy its own

An autonomous agent can purchase its own credits and start querying, with no browser and no card entry, by paying over MPP with a Stripe shared payment token.

1. Reads the price at /api/credits/mpp
2. Receives a signed 402 payment challenge
3. Pays, and gets back a funded API key

Payment terms are HMAC-bound, so an edited challenge is refused, and the charge is idempotent, so a retry cannot bill the card twice. Documented in the API reference and described for machines at /llms.txt.
