The Problem

B2B product data is a mess.

If you're building procurement automation, you've hit the wall: unstructured catalogs, call-for-pricing, PDF spec sheets, and login-gated inventory systems that weren't built for machines. Your agent can't transact through a platform it can't parse.

Infrastructure for AI purchasing agents.

MCP Server

Native Model Context Protocol integration. Your AI agent connects to Catalist's product catalog, pricing, and inventory as a structured tool — query, evaluate, and order in context.

CLI

Command-line interface for programmatic product discovery, inventory queries, and order placement. Pipe it into any procurement workflow.

Procurement Skills

Pre-built capabilities for autonomous purchasing workflows. Product search, price comparison, reorder prediction, and order execution — ready to deploy.

Structured Product Data

Machine-readable catalog with standardized product specs, real-time inventory, transparent pricing, and compliance documentation in structured formats.

  # Install the CLI 
 $  npm install -g @catalist/cli 
   
 
  # Authenticate 
 $  catalist auth login 
   
 
  # Search products 
 $  catalist search "corelle dinner plates" --format json 
   → 12 results from 3 brands 
   
 
  # Place an order 
 $  catalist order create --sku CAT-COR-2847 --qty 50 
   → Order ORD-2847 created. Documentation attached. 

Why Catalist over scraping traditional B2B sites.

Structured vs. Unstructured

Traditional B2B platforms serve HTML pages. Catalist serves structured data — JSON, APIs, MCP — designed for machine consumption from the ground up.

Verified Documentation

AI agents need to validate compliance. Catalist provides machine-readable certificates of analysis, manufacturer invoices, and chain of custody records.

Brand-Direct

Inventory sourced through authorized brand relationships. Your agent can verify provenance programmatically.

No Authentication Friction

No login walls, no CAPTCHA, no session tokens. Programmatic access for authorized agents.
