What cloro Does

cloro is a unified API that provides real-time, structured access to Google Search and every major AI search engine including ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google Gemini, Microsoft Copilot, Google AI Overview, and Grok. Instead of managing separate integrations for each platform, developers and SEO teams get consistent JSON responses with parsed markdown, citations, sources, and shopping data from a single endpoint.

Who It's For & Problems Solved

Built for developers, SEO professionals, marketers, and AI agent builders who need reliable search visibility data or want to power their products with real-time search intelligence. cloro solves four critical problems: (1) API responses from providers don't match what users actually see in the UI, (2) direct provider APIs omit source citations and URLs, (3) maintaining separate integrations for each engine creates technical debt, and (4) token-based pricing makes costs unpredictable. cloro captures the live search experience as customers see it, extracts all sources and citations, consolidates every engine behind one API, and charges transparent per-request credits.

Key Features & Capabilities

• Unified API Interface: Query ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Copilot, AI Overview, and Google Search with identical request structure
• Structured Data Extraction: Parsed markdown, HTML, and text responses with separated sources, citations, query fan-out, and shopping blocks
• Geographic Targeting: Global country support plus US state-level targeting across all major AI engines
• MCP Server Integration: Hosted Model Context Protocol server for Claude, Cursor, and any MCP-compatible agent
• High Reliability: 99.99% uptime with automatic retries (up to 10 attempts, 5-minute max duration) and async endpoint support for high-volume workloads
• Developer Experience: Python, TypeScript, and cURL SDKs with 30–45 second average response times and comprehensive API playground

Typical Workflows

SEO teams track brand mentions and competitor visibility across AI answers at scale, running identical queries across regions and engines to measure citation presence. Product developers integrate cloro to add AI-powered search to their applications without managing multiple provider APIs. AI agent builders connect Claude Desktop or Cursor to cloro's MCP server, giving agents tool-based access to live search data. Marketing analysts monitor how different LLMs describe their business and which sources get cited.

Integration & Pricing

cloro offers REST API, Python SDK, TypeScript SDK, webhooks for async requests, and a hosted MCP server accessible via HTTP. Integration is straightforward—most teams complete setup in under 15 minutes. Pricing starts with a free tier (500 monthly credits) and scales based on volume with transparent per-credit costs ($0.80–$0.31 per 1k credits depending on plan). Credits are only deducted on successful extractions, and the pricing model eliminates variable token costs, making monthly bills predictable.

What Sets It Apart

Unlike direct provider APIs that return raw text without context, cloro parses the actual user interface to deliver exactly what searchers see, including all source URLs and citation labels. The unified response schema means adding a new AI engine requires only a config change, not new integration work. With dedicated infrastructure handling 1 billion monthly API calls and sub-minute response times, cloro replaces fragile scrapers and multiple API contracts with one reliable service.
