How to teach your AI to find game deals

GoCDKeys now plugs straight into ChatGPT, Claude, Grok and anything else that takes a connector. Once it is in, you can ask about game prices without leaving the chat window you were already in. It is free, it takes about a minute, and there is no account to create.

You ask the way you would ask a mate who follows this stuff — "is this a decent price or should I hang on?" — and you get today's price, the shop selling it, and the format that price actually refers to.

Getting it in

One address does it:

https://gocdkeys.com/agent/mcp

Paste it into the connectors panel of your assistant; some apps call it integrations, some call it tools. No username, no password, no permissions over anything of yours. When the assistant says it has picked it up, start asking.

Screenshots and the exact steps for each app are on the page for AI assistants.

What you get out of it

Today's prices across 49 verified shops, without opening a dozen tabs. The format behind every figure, so you know whether you are buying a key you redeem yourself or somebody else's shared account. Price history, so you can see whether a game has been cheaper. A read on whether today is a good day to buy or a lousy one. Release dates and pre-order prices for what is still to come.

Prompts worth stealing

Copy these straight into the chat.

Finding the cheapest price

• "Where can I get Hades II on PC for the best price today?"
• "Give me the lowest price for Baldur's Gate 3 on PC and tell me what format it comes in."

Picking a platform

• "Compare Hollow Knight Silksong on PC, PS5 and Switch and tell me where it works out best."
• "I own a PS5 and a decent PC. Which one gets me Cyberpunk 2077 cheaper?"

Buy now or wait

• "Should I grab Alan Wake 2 on PC today, or does it usually drop further?"
• "Is today's price for Hades II a good one, or expensive for what it normally goes for?"
• "Show me how Cyberpunk 2077's price has moved over the past twelve months."

Hunting for discounts

• "Which Switch games are sitting at their all-time low today?"
• "Put together a list of ten PC games that are properly discounted today."

What is coming next

• "Which games land in the next few weeks? Give me the date and the pre-order price."
• "What can I pre-order on Switch right now, and how much?"

Clearing your wishlist in one go

• "Here's my list: Elden Ring, Silksong, Baldur's Gate 3, Hades II and Alan Wake 2, all on PC. Tell me which are worth buying today and which I should sit on."

Shopping to a budget

• "My ceiling is 35 euros. Find me three well-reviewed PC games that fit, and say which format each price is."

Asking for a recommendation

• "Recommend some highly rated RPGs for Switch that are discounted right now."
• "Something co-op for two on PC, under 20 euros."

The question that saves you the most grief

• "What format is that price? Is it a key I redeem myself, or a shared account?"

A conversation, start to finish

You: "Where is Elden Ring cheapest on PC?"

Assistant: "The cheapest key is 41.29 EUR at Cdkeys Com, a Steam Key you redeem on your own account. There is something cheaper, 15.95 EUR at Difmark, but that one is a Steam Account. Against what this game usually goes for, today sits on the expensive side."

You: "What's the actual difference between the two?"

Assistant: "The 41.29 EUR Steam Key is a code you redeem yourself, and the game stays in your library. The 15.95 EUR Steam Account is somebody else's login: you play for as long as that access holds, and it is never yours. That is why I lead with the key even though it costs more."

And this is how it looks when the answer says buy rather than wait:

Both prices checked on the morning of 26 August. They move during the day, which is the whole point of asking live.

Why the format always rides along

The same game is sold as several different things: a key you redeem on Steam, PlayStation Store or the eShop; an official store code; a Steam gift; or a shared account. The gap between them can be twenty-five euros on a single title.

So the assistant names the format next to the figure every single time, and puts the key first. A number on its own tells you almost nothing about what you would be buying.
