AI Mode API
I wanted to query Google's AI Mode programmatically, and there's no official API. So I built a browser extension that gives you a private API endpoint tied to your browser. Install the extension → it connects to a relay server → you get a unique, private endpoint. Send POST requests from your scripts/terminal. Your browser receives the query, the extension fires up AI Mode, executes the query, returns JSON with the answer, follow-ups, and sources. The endpoint is private (only you can query it). Extension only touches the AI Mode page, nothing else in your browser. Demo video:…
AI Mode API launched on January 15, 2026 with 75 votes, #452 of 14,585 launches that month and more than 95% of that year's launches.
What it does
What it does: Turns Google's AI Mode into a programmable API endpoint that runs through your browser. Install the extension, get an API URL, and start querying AI Mode from anywhere—your terminal, scripts, automation tools, whatever. What you get back: Every response includes the AI-generated answer, follow-up questions, and source links. All structured as JSON. No scraping setup, no complex tooling.
Yes, completely free to use.
Access AI Mode responses programmatically — including the main answer, follow-up questions, and source links — all through a simple API. Query AI Mode for research projects — get structured answers, suggested follow-ups, and source citations in one response. Check if your website, brand, or content appears in AI Mode responses and source links for specific queries. Understand how AI Mode surfaces information for your industry or keywords, and see which sources it considers most relevant. The AI Mode API Extension is a browser extension that transforms Google’s AI Mode into a programmable API endpoint. Once installed, it runs locally in your browser and lets you query AI Mode from…from aimodeapi.com

Hi HN, My team and I are building Tabstack to handle the "web layer" for AI agents. Launch Post: https://tabstack.ai/blog/intro-browsing-infrastructure-ai-ag... Maintaining a complex infrastructure stack for web browsing is one of the biggest bottlenecks in building reliable agents. You start with a simple fetch, but quickly end up managing a complex stack of proxies, handling client-side hydration, and debugging brittle selectors. and writing custom parsing logic for every site. Tabstack is an API that abstracts that infrastructure. You send a URL and an intent; we…

Talanoa▲341Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…

Hey HN! I wanted to share something I built over the last few weeks: isometric.nyc is a massive isometric pixel art map of NYC, built with nano banana and coding agents. I didn't write a single line of code. Of course no-code doesn't mean no-engineering. This project took a lot more manual labor than I'd hoped! I wrote a deep dive on the workflow and some thoughts about the future of AI coding and creativity: http://cannoneyed.com/projects/isometric-nyc
