UCM — Universal Commerce Marketplace

UCM — Universal Commerce Marketplace

[npm] [Services] [Free Services] [Tests]

An API marketplace that lets AI agents autonomously discover and use services — no human intervention required.

Why UCM

Today, AI agents can only use tools that developers have pre-integrated. UCM gives agents autonomous API access:

Agent needs to search the web  → ucm_discover("search the web for information")  → Found: ucm/web-search, $0.01/call  → ucm_call("ucm/web-search", "search", { query: "..." })  → Results returned, $0.01 deducted from credits

No UI, no manual approval — register once, get $1.00 free credits, start calling APIs.

Features

• 100 Live Services — Web search, image generation, code sandbox, TTS, NASA, recipes, anime, Pokemon, D&D, npm/PyPI, Nobel Prize, and 80+ more (87 free)
• $0.01–$0.05 per call — Affordable micropayments with $1.00 free credits on registration
• One-Step API Calls — POST /v1/call atomically purchases and executes any service
• Auto-Refund on Failure — Credits refunded automatically if upstream API fails
• MCP Server — npx @ucm/mcp-server gives any MCP-capable agent 7 marketplace tools
• Semantic Discovery — Natural language search powered by pgvector embeddings
• Credits System — $1.00 on registration, $2.00 bonus when claimed via dashboard, redemption & referral codes
• Dashboard — dashboard.ucm.ai — manage agents, credits, and usage history

Quick Start

For AI Agents (Recommended)

Give your agent this prompt:

Read https://registry.ucm.ai/onboarding.md and follow the instructions to join UCM.

The agent will self-register, get an API key + $1.00 credits, and start using services autonomously.

MCP Server

Add to your MCP config (Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, etc.):

{  "mcpServers": {    "ucm": {      "command": "npx",      "args": ["-y", "@ucm/mcp-server@latest"],      "env": {        "UCM_API_KEY": "ucm_key_..."      }    }  }}

No API key yet? The ucm_register tool will create one automatically.
