Products & Services
Hosted pay-per-call gateway and searchable catalog for third-party operations such as web search, email finding and verification, people and company enrichment, SEO/SERP, scraping, social data and media generation. It supports direct endpoint runs and job-level fallback across providers.
Streamable HTTP MCP server at api.looot.ai/mcp with tools including search, discover, inspect, run, run history/evidence, balance and top-up, allowing MCP-compatible agents to use the catalog through one connection.
npm-installed command-line interface for login, catalog search, inspection, runs, balances, run history and agent initialization.
Token-authenticated API for catalog discovery/search, operation inspection, run creation, run status, attempts/evidence, balances and prepaid top-ups.
Market Position
looot positions itself as a pay-per-call data/API gateway for AI agents rather than a model provider or a traditional seat-based automation suite. Its differentiators are one connection and balance across many providers, price visibility before execution, optional provider fallback, and auditable receipts. The AI Agent Index identifies Clay as an alternative for shared-table enrichment waterfalls, Composio for business-app actions with managed OAuth, and treg.to for a self-hosted/open-source-style gateway; looot is better aligned with developers and growth teams wanting live data operations paid per call.

Executive Team
Walid Boulanouar
Founder and builder
Co-founder of AY Automate and Humanoidz.ai; public profile describes him as an agent-native builder and CEO who ships AI products and automations. He is the named looot contact and publishes looot product and technical content.
Founding Story
looot was created to solve the fragmentation of agent data access: instead of making an agent manage a separate SDK, account and key for every enrichment, search, scraping, SEO or social-data provider, one gateway exposes a searchable catalog, quotes the price before execution, routes the request and records the receipt. The public founder profile describes looot as being built with the team and currently in progress.
Business Model
Revenue Model
Usage-based prepaid billing. Customers top up a workspace balance and pay per call, per result or per matched record, depending on the provider operation. Platform-key operations include a disclosed fee in the quoted price; customer-owned provider keys run at provider cost with no looot markup. There is no subscription, seat fee or contract.
Pricing Tiers
No monthly subscription or seat fee. Example published prices include Hunter email finder at $0.0265 per result, Exa search at $0.009 per call, Diffbot article extraction at $0.0032 per call and IPinfo at $0.002 per lookup.
Customers connect their own credentials; looot states that it adds no markup.
