# Affiliate.com

> Search product catalogs across merchants and affiliate networks.

[Affiliate.com](https://affiliate.com) aggregates product catalogs across
merchants and affiliate networks into a single searchable index, with live
pricing, brands, and direct merchant links.

Attach `affiliate` to an [Exa Agent](/docs/agent/quickstart) run through
[Exa Connect](/docs/agent/connect/overview), and the agent queries
Affiliate.com alongside Exa web search.

## Use it for

* Product discovery and price comparison across merchants.
* Powering shopping assistants and buying-guide content.
* Surfacing affiliate links alongside research.

## Provider ID

Use this value in `dataSources`:

```text theme={null}
affiliate
```

## Example

Find wireless noise-cancelling headphones under \$300 and compare pricing.

  ```python Python theme={null}
  from exa_py import Exa

  exa = Exa()
  run = exa.agent.runs.create(
      query="Find wireless noise-cancelling headphones under $300 with pricing from multiple merchants.",

## Pairs well with

* [Similarweb](/docs/agent/connect/similarweb): gauge a merchant's reach before recommending it.
* [Fiber.ai](/docs/agent/connect/fiber): research the company behind a merchant or brand.
