Web-to-API Gateway

Automatically turn any website into a callable API and MCP endpoint for Agents

Problem
Developers often need to connect websites without public APIs (e.g., Partiful) to AI Agents, but reverse-engineering is brittle and time-consuming. There is no simple, generic tool to convert web actions into APIs.
Solution
A proxy layer where users input a target URL and desired actions (e.g., create event, list items) to auto-generate REST APIs and MCP descriptions, enabling direct Agent calls.
Users
Indie developers, automation enthusiasts, and AI teams integrating third-party websites into Agents.
MVP
Browser extension to record user actions; auto-generate OpenAPI spec and MCP endpoints; online test panel; support auth passthrough.
Revenue
Usage-based pricing on generated endpoints and calls; free tier then $9/mo subscription.
Why now
MCP is becoming the standard for Agent-tool interaction, yet many long-tail sites still lack APIs—filling this gap is high-value.
