Teabox

Teabox is a premium loose-leaf tea brand and direct-to-consumer e-commerce company backed by Accel. It sources fresh Darjeeling, Assam, Nilgiri and other Indian teas direct from gardens and ships them globally through its online store. The storefront runs on Shopify, which exposes an agent-commerce surface built on the Universal Commerce Protocol (UCP): a hosted shopping MCP endpoint, a machine-readable llms.txt / agents.md, and OpenID Connect authentication via the Shopify Customer Account API (including a customer-account MCP scope). Buyer checkout always requires explicit human approval. This profile was surfaced as an Accel portfolio company and enriched from Teabox's public agent-facing surfaces.

Teabox publishes 1 API on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Consumer, Tea, Food and Beverage, and E-commerce.

Teabox’s developer surface includes authentication and 8 more developer resources.
