Brooklinen

Brooklinen is a direct-to-consumer home essentials brand founded in Brooklyn, New York in 2014 by Rich and Vicki Fulop, selling sheets, duvet covers, comforters, pillows, towels, robes and loungewear direct from the mill to the customer. Brooklinen publishes no traditional developer API program, but its storefront runs on Shopify and exposes a substantial machine-readable agent surface: an agent instruction document at /agents.md (mirrored at /llms.txt), a Universal Commerce Protocol (UCP) merchant profile at /.well-known/ucp declaring protocol versions 2026-04-08 and 2026-01-23, a live UCP/MCP JSON-RPC endpoint at /api/ucp/mcp for agent-driven catalog search, cart, checkout and order operations, OAuth 2.0 / OIDC customer-account authorization metadata at /.well-known/oauth-authorization-server and /.well-known/oauth-protected-resource, and the read-only Shopify storefront JSON endpoints for products, collections, search suggestions and cart. Checkout explicitly requires contemporaneous human buyer approval.

Brooklinen publishes 5 APIs on the APIs.io network, including Cart API, Collections API, Discovery API, and 2 more. Tagged areas include E-Commerce, Retail, Direct to Consumer, Home Goods, and Bedding.

Brooklinen’s developer surface includes documentation, API reference, getting-started guide, support, engineering blog, signup flow, authentication, and 21 more developer resources.

Regulatory Posture applies to this provider. Its tags matched the Payments 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.
The six quality facets above are damped to 85 points between them, because the conditional facet above carries the other 15. That is why each facet's contribution is shown against a damped maximum: raising a quality facet moves the composite by 85% of its nominal weight, not 100%. The full arithmetic is at apis.io/rating/.
Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/.
