# Gift I Am

> Gift ideas for a person and a budget, over 2,821 products from household-name brands.

Who it is for: anyone choosing a present, and any agent choosing one on
their behalf. Pick who the gift is for, an age group and a budget, and the
answer is a ranked shelf of real products with photographs, price labels
and a link that sends a buyer to the shop.

## API

Base URL: https://giftiam.com/api/v1
No key needed. Answers are JSON and may be cached for five minutes.
Keys are optional; ask for one for a higher rate limit, and send it as
the X-Api-Key header.

GET /gifts
  https://giftiam.com/api/v1/gifts?for=him&age=fifties-sixties&budget=100-to-250&interests=golf&limit=5
  Parameters: for, age, budget, interests, exclude, limit.
  interests and exclude are comma separated. exclude takes gift ids the
  person already has, and each one also removes other listings of the same
  product. limit is 1 to 24 and defaults to 10.

GET /gifts/{id}
  https://giftiam.com/api/v1/gifts/kodak-ektar-h35-half-frame-film-camera
  The same gift shape, on its own.

GET /go/{id}
  https://giftiam.com/api/v1/go/kodak-ektar-h35-half-frame-film-camera
  Answers 302 to the shop. Send buyers here rather than to the shop
  directly, so the link keeps working when the affiliate accounts arrive.

GET /demand
  https://giftiam.com/api/v1/demand
  TikTok Shop United States best sellers for week 2026-36, by category,
  the overall top sellers across the whole marketplace in `overall`, and the
  household-brand gifts on this site that are selling there too.
  sample is false: the figures come from a live pull.

GET /demand/kinds and /demand/kinds/{slug}
  https://giftiam.com/api/v1/demand/kinds
  Every row on that marketplace is a kind of object and almost none of them
  carry a brand you could name. These are the kinds, with the household-name
  gift to give instead. A row is only ever title, units, growth and price.

## Allowed values

for: anyone, him, her
age: babies-toddlers, young-kids, tweens, teens, twenties, thirties-forties, fifties-sixties, seventy-plus
budget: under-25, 25-to-50, 50-to-100, 100-to-250, over-250, only-the-best
interests: cooking, baking, coffee, wine, grilling, gardening, reading, music, jazz, gaming, travel, hiking, fitness, yoga, art, crafts, photography, tech, cars, fishing, golf, pets, fashion, skincare, home-decor, plants, puzzles, history, science, sports-fan, building, outdoor-play, pretend-play, stem, sensory-play, board-games, birdwatching, self-care, watches, bar, tools, cycling, running, fragrance

Anything else in one of those four returns 400 with the list of values that
parameter takes, so a wrong guess tells you the right ones.

## Prices

Some shops do not allow a published price. For those gifts price is null
and priceLabel carries the price band instead, for example "$50 to $100".
Both fields are always present, and the band is always accurate. The date
in checked is the day the price and the link were last read, so treat the
shop's own page as today's price.

## Ranking

Results are ranked by the site's own engine over the whole catalogue:
a reviewed lead order for each age and budget, then a deterministic score,
then a pass that stops the same product being offered twice. An agent gets
the same order a person browsing the site is shown.
