NowRx

NowRx Inc. was a Silicon Valley technology-enabled pharmacy that paired proprietary prescription-fulfilment software (marketed as QuickFill), robotic dispensing inside low-overhead micro-fulfilment centers, and its own last-mile courier fleet to offer free same-day and same-hour delivery of prescription medications across California and Arizona. Founded in 2015 and led by co-founder and CEO Cary Breese, it raised roughly $30M — an unusually large share of it from retail investors through SeedInvest equity crowdfunding — and was last marked at about a $275M valuation before running out of money. The company wound down in late 2022: Alto Pharmacy acquired its California pharmacy patient business effective 2022-11-30 and Capsule took its Arizona patient files, with patients transferred automatically. NowRx never operated a public developer program. No api., developer., docs. or app. host under nowrx.com resolves or has ever been archived, its GitHub organization now holds zero public repositories, and the only surviving first-party engineering artifacts are two npm packages under the @nowrx scope — both vendored forks of third-party React Native libraries, last published in January 2022. The nowrx.com domain is no longer the company's: since late December 2023 it has served an unrelated WordPress health-content site under registrar privacy, so it is deliberately NOT wired here as a Website pointer. This profile is retained as a historical company record.

NowRx is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Defunct, Pharmacy, Healthcare, and Prescription Delivery.

Regulatory Posture applies to this provider. Its tags matched the Health 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 could not be measured. We hold no machine-readable contract for this provider to read, so there is nothing to measure a write surface against. Excluded rather than scored zero: never-measured and measured-empty are different facts. Publishing an OpenAPI is what makes this facet — and several others — scorable at all.

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/.

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

Machine-Readable Contract +18 pts — api_specs includes an OpenAPI document
MCP Server +12 pts — deployment.mode + probe verdict on the mcp/ manifest, not the pointer; an unprobed slug falls back to authorship
Agentic Access Contract +10 pts — agentic_access artifact present (x-agentic-access), graded by author
Machine-Readable Auth +10 pts — a served openid-configuration/oauth-authorization-server carrying `issuer` (served), else the securitySchemes class in the provider OpenAPIs — bound (mutualTLS, DPoP, Signature) > negotiable (oauth2 authorizationCode/clientCredentials, openIdConnect) > bearer (http bearer, apiKey)
Idempotency +9 pts — OpenAPI mutating operations declare an idempotency key — a header, a request-body property, or a named de-duplication token whose own description says so (verified); else common[].type matches /idempoten/i (documented)
Stable Error Semantics +8 pts — OpenAPI $refs a shared error schema across 4xx/5xx responses (verified), else common[].type includes ErrorCatalog / ErrorCodes / DeclineCodes

13 more unmet checks in the Agent Readiness table above.

Kin Score — facets with the most composite points still available (weight × headroom):

Access Clarity scores 0.0 — up to +20.0 composite points

Each check links to what satisfies it. Publish the artifact, or tell us where it already lives, and the score moves on the next scoring run.

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. This rating is computed from the provider profile at artifacts.apis.io/nowrx/apis.yml: open an issue on github.com/api-evangelist/nowrx to ask a question or point us at an artifact you publish.

Markets this provider is in provisional

The Kin Score Market layer reads a provider inside its market: its position, and how deep its integrations go. Depth is only comparable within a position. Provisional and unweighted: not part of the Kin Score or agent readiness.

Market	Position	Depth	Registered MCP server	Declares compatibility
E-Prescribing (pharmacy, e-prescribing, medication data)	undeclared	-	-	-

Registered MCP server and declares compatibility are report only — not weighted. Undeclared means we found nothing we can read, so there is no number: we never infer integrations.

x-domain-note: nowrx.com resolves (Cloudflare, HTTP 200) but is no longer operated by NowRx Inc. The pharmacy marketing site
  was still archived at that address as late as 2023-10; by 2024-01-02 the domain served a fresh WordPress install, and it
  now runs a health/wellness SEO content site ("Nowrx - Trusted Health Insights", first post dated 2023-12-25, 35 posts) whose
  own About page says "NowRx is a health and wellness website" and lists a contact address at shantel.co. Registrant is Domains
  By Proxy. Its stock WordPress REST API at /wp-json/ is the content site's, not NowRx's, and is deliberately not recorded
  as an API surface for this company.

  detail: 'NowRx Inc. ceased operating in November 2022 — Alto Pharmacy bought its California patient business effective 2022-11-30
    and Capsule took the Arizona files — and it never published a developer program in the first place: api.nowrx.com, developer.nowrx.com,
    docs.nowrx.com and app.nowrx.com return no DNS records, the Wayback Machine holds no snapshot of nowrx.com/api, /developer,
    /developers or /docs, and the company''s GitHub organization (github.com/NowRx) is live but holds zero public repositories
    after its two repos were transferred to Ameripharma. The nowrx.com domain itself answers 200 but has been an unrelated
    WordPress health-content site since late December 2023, so its /wp-json/ REST API belongs to the current domain holder
    and not to this company.'
