What is AgentKey?

AgentKey is a data-access layer for AI agents. It gives an agent live access to publicly available data from search engines, web pages, social platforms, financial feeds and marketplaces through a single MCP connection.

The company is clear about what it is not. AgentKey is not the model and not the agent. Users bring their own agent, such as Claude Code, Cursor or Windsurf, and AgentKey supplies the outside data that agent needs to answer questions about the current state of the world.

The pitch is consolidation. Instead of signing up with each data provider, managing separate keys and paying separate bills, a user holds one AgentKey account with one credit balance that covers every supported service.

How does AgentKey work?

A user creates an account at agentkey.app, and a key appears in the console right away. After subscribing or topping up, the user gives the agent an install command. The pricing page shows a curl-based install script, and the homepage describes a one-line plugin install for Claude Code and similar tools.

On first use, AgentKey prompts for the key and checks the connection. From then on the agent can call search, extraction, social, finance and other data routes through the same connection, with usage drawn from one credit balance.

AgentKey also acts as a router. The homepage shows a diagram in which one search provider is active, another is down and a third stands by. When a source has problems, the request moves to another route, so the agent does not stop with a message that it cannot open a page.

  • Credit costs vary by provider, data source and request type, so usage is hard to predict up front.
