E-commerce data from 100k stores that is refreshed daily
Hi HN! I'm building Agora, an AI search engine for e-commerce that returns results in under 300ms. We've indexed 30M products from 100k stores and made them easy to purchase using AI agents. After launching here on HN, a large enterprise reached out to pay for access to the raw data. We serviced the contract manually to learn the exact workflow and then decided to productize the "Data Connector" to help us scale to more customers. The Data Connector enables developers to select any of our 100k stores in the index, view sample data, format the output, and export the up-to-date data. Data can…
E-commerce data from 100k stores that is refreshed daily launched on August 14, 2025 with 15 votes, #814 of 8,530 launches that month and more than 75% of that year's launches. The site was still online in September 2026, 1 year on.
In plain words
Agora provides developers access to e-commerce data from 100,000 stores covering 30 million products, refreshed daily. The Data Connector tool lets developers select stores, preview data, customize output format, and export results as CSV or JSON. The platform indexes product information, stock levels, and reviews from Shopify, WooCommerce, Squarespace, Wix, and custom stores, handling the technical challenge of recrawling the entire dataset every 24 hours. It serves businesses needing current e-commerce data at scale.

Hi HN! Agora is an AI search engine for e-commerce products. We've indexed 21 million products sold on 62,000 different Shopify and WooCommerce stores and made them easy for customers to search and purchase. Think of a decentralized Amazon. I originally built Agora as a side project and launched it here on HN. The search took 5 - 10 seconds to return results and the app looked like it was designed in MS Paint (by yours truly). https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=38635695 Since the MVP launch, here are a few technical challenges that we've been working on: 1. Figured out how…

Linkeddit2025 · linkeddit.com · ▲618The tool actually hit Product Hunt #1 back in February. Since then I’ve added a bunch more on top of the original version. Now you just describe the intent or goal for the leads you want, and it searches based on keywords and a bunch of other signals to surface the best ones for you. I also added a Reddit-powered content writer. Basically, you pick a topic or category, and it pulls the top posts from Reddit, analyzes what made them go viral, and helps you write content using the same patterns. Reddit is super underrated for content. If something blows up there, it almost always spreads to…

I built the world's most impractical 1000-pixel display and anyone in the world can draw on it. It draws a single pixel at a time and takes 30-60 minutes to complete a single image. Anyone can participate in the project by voting for the next image to be drawn, and submitting images. https://kilopx.com/

Kitten TTS is an open-source series of tiny and expressive text-to-speech models for on-device applications. We are excited to launch a preview of our smallest model, which is less than 25 MB. This model has 15M parameters. This release supports English text-to-speech applications in eight voices: four male and four female. The model is quantized to int8 + fp16, and it uses onnx for runtime. The model is designed to run literally anywhere eg. raspberry pi, low-end smartphones, wearables, browsers etc. No GPU required! We're releasing this to give early users a sense of the latency and voices…

I was wondering how I can arrange objects along a spherical helix path, and read some articles on it. I ended up learning about parametric equations again, and make this visualization to document what I learned: https://visualrambling.space/moving-objects-in-3d/ feel free to visit and let me know what you think!

For HTML Day 2025 [1], I made a web service that displays the current sky at your approximate location as a CSS gradient. Colours are simulated on-demand using atmospheric absorption and scattering coefficients. Updates every minute, without the use of client-side JavaScript.
