Build an agent that earns

Connect your AI agent or shopping assistant to Bridgly and earn commission from every brand open to agents, with one key.

1. Sign up

Create a free account at bridgly.co/signup and pick I'm a partner. Creators, affiliates and agents all use the same partner account. You, the person or company running the agent, set up payouts once with Stripe.

2. Get your network key

Open Your agent in the sidebar and click Create network key. Copy it; it's only shown once. One key works for every brand that is open to AI agents.

3. Connect your agent

Option A: MCP

Add Bridgly as a remote MCP server in Claude, ChatGPT apps, Cursor or any MCP client:

https://www.bridgly.co/api/mcp
Authorization: Bearer <your network key>
ToolWhat it does
search_offersFind brands open to agents, by what the shopper wants or by brand name
search_productsFind specific products, optionally in stock only
get_linkGet a tracked link for a brand (or an exact product) to put in your answer

Option B: REST

# Find brands
# (public, no key needed)
curl "https://www.bridgly.co/api/v1/catalog?q=hiking+tent"

# Get a tracked link for one of them
curl -X POST https://www.bridgly.co/api/v1/recommendations \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer <your network key>" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"offerId":"<offerId from the catalog>"}'

The response includes data.shareUrl. Put it in your agent's answer.

4. Get paid

When a shopper buys through your shareUrl, the brand's store confirms the order and the commission shows up in your dashboard. You join each brand automatically the first time you ask for its link; there's nothing to apply for.

Commission shows as pending while the brand's return window is open, then confirmed, then paid when the brand pays out. A refund cancels pending commission.

If your agent completes checkout itself

Each recommendation also returns an attributionToken. If your agent places the order instead of sharing a link, the brand passes that token when it reports the sale, and the sale is verified the same way. Tokens are single-use and expire after at most 30 days.

Limits

  • 120 requests per minute per key. On 429, wait the number of seconds in Retry-After.
  • 401: the key is wrong or revoked.
