Hi HN! I wanted to share our product search and recommendation engine that we’ve built for our eCommerce api startup - Rye. For context, Rye lets people query and dropship products from almost any Shopify and Amazon store. One feature we wanted to have as part of our developer experience was a way for them to search and discover specific products to query. We’ve put together a demo marketplace to showcase the engine. Check it out here: https://search.rye.com/ Here’s a blog that outlines how we built it and how you can to:…

Agora API▲377Hi HN! I'm building Agora, an AI search engine for e-commerce that returns results in under 300ms. We've indexed 30M products and made them easy to purchase. Think of a decentralized Amazon. We've been working on an API that enables developers to embed our product data, search, purchasing, and order tracking functionality into their own app. We currently have 100k stores in the index and recrawl the entire dataset once every 24 hours. I'd love your feedback.

Context.dev▲814Hello, My name is Yahia, I've been working on scraping products for a long time and maintain a couple of free sites in my spare time (E.g. knifegeek.io) What prompted this is i've rebuilt scraping infra at every company I've started and finally just made it a product. Pass a URL, get clean markdown, html, images, sitemap or pass a domain, get logos, colors, socials, industry data. Goal is to offer a better service than VC funded competitors at a fraction of the cost. Stealth is included and automatic at no additional cost (normally an upcharge by alternatives). Would love your honest thoughts.

Hey all! I'm building these collection of APIs to help query SERP, PDP and Reviews data from Ecommerce sites solo since the past few years. I have hundreds of customers and revenue. ScrapingBee (a popular scraping API service) has started copying me now so I thought of doing a Show HN finally. Please butcher my product. I'd really appreciate your feedback. Do reach out via email if you'd like extra free credits, will add them to your account if your email address doesn't look like spam.
