NIFT

Nift is a customer-gifting and acquisition platform: businesses send "thank-you" gifts that let their own customers discover and try new brands, restaurants, and services, while the partnering brands gain new customers at the moment of gift selection. Proprietary AI matches each recipient to relevant gift options. For developers, Nift ships a partner integration surface: first-party SDKs (Web, iOS, Android, React Native) that embed the Nift gift-redemption "card flow" directly into a partner's app, plus a server-side Partners API secured with OAuth 2.0 client credentials for looking up customer eligibility status and submitting GDPR-style customer deletion (anonymization) requests. Backed by Foundry Group.

NIFT publishes 1 API contract indexed on the APIs.io network: Customers API. Tagged areas include Company, Marketing, Gifting, Customer Acquisition, and Loyalty.

The NIFT catalog on APIs.io includes 1 Spectral governance ruleset.

NIFT’s developer surface includes documentation, getting-started guide, support, engineering blog, signup flow, authentication, and 27 more developer resources.

Regulatory Posture applies to this provider. Its tags matched the Horizontal (data, software, accessibility, platform) 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/.

Agent readiness — checks not met, largest first (exact, from this profile):

MCP Server +12 pts — deployment.mode + probe verdict on the mcp/ manifest, not the pointer; an unprobed slug falls back to authorship
A2A Agent Card +8 pts — a2a/-a2a.yml manifest, graded on conformance.grade against A2A 1.0.0
Registration Without a Human +6 pts — a `registration_endpoint` in the served RFC 8414 / OIDC discovery document
Delegated User Identity +6 pts — a served discovery document listing authorization_code in grant_types_supported (served), else an oauth2 authorizationCode flow or openIdConnect declared in an OpenAPI (documented)
Typed Event Surface +6 pts — AsyncAPI document, OR webhooks/callbacks objects in the as-published OpenAPI, OR common[].type includes Webhooks
Documented Reversibility +6 pts — a reversal operation in the contract, graded up when a window is documented too

5 more unmet checks in the Agent Readiness table above.

Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/. Every facet and dimension name above is a link: it opens that measurement's own page — what it means, the exact checks that feed it, how the whole catalog distributes on it, and the providers at the top of it.
