Coravin

Coravin is a consumer beverage-technology company best known for its wine preservation systems, which use a thin needle and inert argon gas to pour wine by the glass without pulling the cork, leaving the remaining wine unoxidized for weeks or months. Its product line spans the Timeless, Pivot, and Sparkling systems plus Pure argon capsules, sold direct-to-consumer and through retail and trade channels. Coravin does not operate a standalone public developer API; its direct storefront runs on Shopify, which exposes a real agent-native commerce surface — a Universal Commerce Protocol (UCP) merchant profile, a hosted shopping MCP endpoint, and OIDC / OAuth 2.0 authorization-server metadata for Shopify Customer Accounts. Backed by Battery Ventures.

Coravin is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Wine, Beverage, Consumer Products, and Ecommerce.

Coravin’s developer surface includes support, engineering blog, authentication, and 9 more developer resources.
