Resources
Autocomplete API, Google ARD, and search guides.
Start with the autocomplete API and Google Agentic Resource Discovery (ARD), then use the implementation notes for your stack.
Autocomplete API
Autocomplete for ecommerce and webshop search bars, including PrestaShop, without replacing the search engine you already run.
Search Suggestions API
What a search suggestions API should return: ranked products, categories, and collections before query submit.
Supported protocols
REST, HTTP QUERY, A2A, MCP, WebMCP, AID, ARD, UCP, ACP, PAP, and OKF: the search and product-discovery surfaces on api.suggestapi.com and agent.suggestapi.com.
Google ARD
Google Agentic Resource Discovery (ARD): a live ai-catalog.json so agents can discover commerce search and handoff surfaces.
Retrieval abstraction
Query routing, lexical vs embedding retrieval, and intent-to-API mapping for storefronts and agents.
Documentation
Reference documentation for integrating and working with SuggestAPI.
Open Knowledge Format
SuggestAPI supports Google’s OKF: structured, portable knowledge bundles that AI agents can discover, navigate, and reason over.
What is SuggestAPI
Product discovery infrastructure: one layer between your catalog and the websites, apps, and agents that need to find products.
How It Works
Add the SuggestAPI agent to your storefront. Your search backend stays; the gateway handles structured discovery.
Query intent
How query intent, user intent, and semantic intent work together behind better search suggestions.
Use Cases
Examples for ecommerce, large catalogs, marketplaces, and agent-ready commerce.
SuggestAPI Bot
Crawler information for site owners, including the user-agent token and `robots.txt` guidance.
Integrations
Google Shopping import and Merchant Center export, Convertmax, Supabase, WooCommerce, and Vendure.
