What is TinyFish?
TinyFish is a web platform built for AI agents and the developers behind them. One API key unlocks live search, clean page fetching, cloud browsers, and a goal-driven agent that signs in, fills forms, and returns structured data. It also plugs into ChatGPT, Claude Code, and other assistants through MCP.
Top Features:
- Goal-driven agent: describe a task in plain English and it works the live site.
- Live data: get fresh search results and clean Markdown or JSON from pages.
- Credential vault: agents log in through 1Password or Bitwarden without exposing passwords.
Use Cases:
- Portal automation: sign in to supplier portals, fill forms, and download files.
- Price monitoring: get alerts when competitor prices, filings, or job posts change.
- Data enrichment: check contact and company records against the live web and fill gaps.
