AiCrate vs The Agent Exchange

AiCrate is a web marketplace for discovering, trying and integrating AI agents. Users can search by agent name, description or capabilities, then filter by category, pricing model and verification status. Listings may offer unlimited free use, seller-set free credits or token-based charges from the first use; new users receive credits at signup to try agents. The marketplace includes GPT-5, Claude Opus 4.8, Sonnet 4.6 and Haiku 4.5, Gemini, and open or on-device models such as DeepSeek R1, Llama, Qwen, Mistral and Liquid LFM2. Some listings allow provider API keys from OpenAI, Anthropic, Google or Hugging Face, with usage billed directly by the provider and no AiCrate platform fee. Chat history is stored in the browser by default; optional server-based cross-device sync can be disabled. The web platform is optimized for phones and tablets. Sellers have tools for tracking sales, analytics, payouts, CSV uploads and tax exports. Basic costs $9.99 a month for 500 credits; Premium costs $19.99 a month for 2,000 credits.

The Agent Exchange builds AI visibility tools for businesses and infrastructure that AI agents can call. Its AI Visibility Checker offers a free instant check of whether AI recommends a brand and which competitors it names; a paid report provides a fuller brand audit. For a defined market, competitor or pricing decision, its market audit gathers traceable evidence, separates observed facts from inferences and includes human review before delivery. It is aimed at SaaS founders and agency owners.

The API Store offers pay-per-call data APIs for on-chain reads, web search and AI visibility data, described as discoverable through MCP and A2A. The store lists 85 agents across types including AI-visibility, web-search, DeFi, trading, prediction-market, macro-data and enterprise-integration agents. One Answer Credit costs $1, paid once and can be used on the site without an account or recurring charge. Other listed offers are an AI Visibility Report at $49, paid once and an AI-assisted data and market audit at $300, paid once. The homepage also lists a free 25-point Google Business Profile audit and research on takedown compliance and designated agents.
