The API is a WSDL based web-service used to get public information about the Prosper Marketplace. It allows ad-hoc, real-time querying of the marketplace so you can develop rich, powerful tools for bidding, listing and portfolio analysis.

Prosper, America's first people-to-people lending marketplace, was created to make consumer lending more financially and socially rewarding for everyone. The way Prosper works is intuitive to people who have used eBay. Instead of listing and bidding on items, people list and bid on loans using Prosper's online auction platform. Prosper provides developers tools to build upon the platform. It recently released v1.0 of its API. Prosper provides a WSDL based web-service that can be called to get public information about the Prosper Marketplace. It allows ad-hoc querying of the Prosper Marketplace so you can develop richer more powerful tools for bidding, listing and portfolio analysis than the Prosper Marketplace web interface can provide. Imagine tracking Prosper Marketplace performance to other indices, for example the S&P 500, LIBOR, or the surf conditions at Ocean Beach. You don't think it correlates? Try it and find out.
