Capabilities

Tools 9

buy_guide_spot

Buy a labelled Sponsored spot for a product in one Hokai guide. Returns checkout_url, a Stripe card payment page. The dates are held for 30 minutes while it is open; the first payment wins. Rule to pass on to the vendor: guide spots are pay first. The entry is written by hand and goes live within 48 hours of payment, or on the start date if that is later. If the guide does not suit the product, Hokai moves the spot to a guide that does. Refunds are not automatic: ask damien@hokai.io. Give the product EITHER as product_slug (+ product_type) when it already has a Hokai page, OR as product_name + product_url when it does not (its page is then written free and the earliest start is a week out). Args: email: a work email for the vendor guide: the guide's slug, from vendor_catalog (guides[].slug) product_slug: the product's Hokai slug, e.g. "notion-ai" (optional) product_type: tools, agents, skills, models, companies or services product_name: the product's name, when it has no Hokai page (optional) product_url: the product's website, when it has no Hokai page (optional) starts_on: YYYY-MM-DD (optional; default is the guide's next free day) months: 3, 6 or 12 company: company name (optional) agent: your agent's name (optional)

Discovered
buy_leads

Buy 1 to 20 Hokai buyer leads. A lead is a person who told Smart Match the job, the tools they use and often the budget, then agreed to hear from vendors (three vendors per buyer at most). Returns checkout_url, a Stripe card payment page. Rule to pass on to the vendor: leads are delivered as buyers who fit come in. There is no stock cap: the balance never expires and one lead is used each time a buyer's brief is opened. Every purchase includes a year of Premium. Refunds are not automatic: ask damien@hokai.io. Args: email: a work email for the vendor quantity: 1 to 20 company: company name (optional) agent: your agent's name (optional)

Discovered
buy_listing

Buy a Hokai listing for an AI tool, model, agent, MCP server, skill or AI service. Returns checkout_url, a Stripe card payment page for the one-time fee: a person, or an agent that can pay, completes it. Nothing is charged by this call. A person then researches the product and writes its page. Paying never affects rankings. Refunds are not automatic: ask damien@hokai.io. Only call this when the product's owner or their team asked for it, and use their real work email: the vendor account is created for it on payment and Hokai emails it when the page goes live. Args: tool_url: the product's own website, e.g. https://example.com email: a work email for the vendor company: company name (optional) note: anything the editors should know (optional) agent: your agent's name (optional)

Discovered

Discovered

Discovered
submit_listing

Older name for buy_listing, kept so existing agents keep working. Starts a Hokai listing and returns a payment link (checkout_url, also given as payment_url). Nothing is charged by this call. Refunds are not automatic: ask damien@hokai.io. Args: tool_url: the product's own website, e.g. https://example.com email: a work email for the vendor company: company name (optional) note: anything the editors should know (optional)

Discovered
vendor_catalog

What an AI vendor can buy on Hokai, with live prices and limits: a listing (Get listed), a labelled Sponsored spot in a guide (Guide spots) and buyer leads (Leads). Includes every guide open for booking with its slug, its next free date and its expected reach for the next three months (a projection, not a promise). Call this before buy_listing, buy_guide_spot or buy_leads.
