Braiins is a Prague-based Bitcoin mining technology company that operates the world's longest-running Bitcoin mining pool (Slush Pool, now Braiins Pool, mining since 2010), builds Braiins OS autotuning ASIC firmware, and co-developed Stratum V2, the successor mining-pool protocol. Three of its products publish an API: Braiins OS ships a Public API over both gRPC and REST that runs on the miner itself (63 REST operations, 16 proto3 service files); Braiins Hashpower publishes an OpenAPI 3.1 contract for its spot hashrate marketplace and fixed-duration contracts (35 operations); and Braiins Pool exposes six read-only JSON endpoints for pool, worker and reward statistics. Braiins Manager gates its own public API behind a paid tier. Braiins completed a SOC 2 Type 2 audit in 2025 and publishes a vulnerability disclosure policy with a five-business-day response commitment.
Braiins publishes 2 APIs on the APIs.io network: OS Public API and Hashpower API. Tagged areas include Bitcoin Mining, Cryptocurrency, Mining Pool, Mining Firmware, and Blockchain.
Braiins’ developer surface includes documentation, API reference, getting-started guide, engineering blog, support, signup flow, pricing, and 34 more developer resources.
Regulatory Posture applies to this provider. Its tags matched the
Energy & Utilities regime, so
Regulatory Posture carries 15 points of the composite.
If this regime is wrong for your business, say so on your
provider repo — the
applicability map is public and we will correct it.
Create-or-Update Ergonomics applies to this provider. This API accepts writes, so it
carries 10 points of the composite. It is scored from the published contracts
themselves: whether a caller can create-or-update in one call, whether the write accepts a key the caller already
holds, and whether the response says which branch ran. Without that, every write needs a search-and-branch in
front of it, and the first time that check is skipped a duplicate record is created.
Scored against the observed mean rather than raw — a provider at the catalog average is unchanged by this facet,
not penalised by it.
The six quality facets above are damped to 75 points between them,
because the conditional facet above carries the other
25. That is why each facet's contribution is shown against a damped
maximum: raising a quality facet moves the composite by 75% of its nominal
weight, not 100%. The full arithmetic is at apis.io/rating/.

Braiins OS. It is offered over gRPC (package braiins.bos.v1, TCP 50051) and, since Braiins OS 25.07, over REST — Braiins
states both transports provide the same functionality. The API runs ON the miner: servers[] is http://miner/, so the host
is each device on the operator''s own network and there is no Braiins-hosted endpoint. 63 REST operations cover mining
actions, performance and power targeting, Dynamic Performance Scaling, cooling, pool groups, licensing, network configuration,
firmware upgrade and restore-to-stock, and a detailed miner status that reports the reason a machine is not hashing. Every
miner also self-serves its own OpenAPI at GET /api/v1/docs/openapi.json.'

description: 'Public HTTP API for the Braiins Hashpower marketplace: buying hashrate on the spot market, scheduling fixed-duration
contracts with guaranteed delivery, and reading account and market data. 35 operations across bid orders, contracts, accounts,
market data and market configuration, published as OpenAPI 3.1.0 and rendered in Scalar at https://hashpower.braiins.com/api.
Authentication is an API key in the apikey header, scoped by ACL role (owner for trading, read-only for viewing); the
four market-data operations are callable anonymously. Every operation publishes its own rate limit in the contract. Notable
for two advisory operations — quoteContractCreation and checkContractSpeedAvailability — that let a caller cost and validate
a contract without reserving funds or capacity. Braiins labels Hashpower a beta product and the 0% spot bid fee is stated
to apply during the beta period.'

Six documented endpoints: pool stats and recent blocks, user profile and rewards, daily rewards over a date range, daily
hashrate for a user or group, and block rewards. Authentication is an access-profile token in the Pool-Auth-Token (or
X-Pool-Auth-Token) header, generated per access profile after enabling "Allow access to web APIs". Braiins publishes a
limit of approximately one request per five seconds and states that sustained excess can result in an IP ban. No machine-readable
contract is published — the endpoints and response fields are documented in prose tables only.'
