Acme Markets

Acme Markets is a regional supermarket chain founded in 1891 and headquartered in the U.S. Northeast, operating approximately 164 stores across Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Delaware, New York, Connecticut, and Maryland. Acme is a banner of Albertsons Companies, Inc., one of the largest food and drug retailers in the United States. The brand has no publicly documented developer program or public API: digital surfaces (store locator, loyalty program "ACME for U", FreshPass subscription, DriveUp & Go, delivery, pharmacy) are delivered through Albertsons-shared web and mobile platforms. The Android package ID (`com.safeway.client.android.acme`) confirms that the Acme app is built on the shared Safeway/Albertsons banner application, suggesting a shared backend API surface across Albertsons banners that is not externally published.

human only

Index entry only — little beyond a description and a link, and nothing machine-readable enough for an agent to act on without a human reading the site first.

Kin Score

API Evangelist profiles Acme Markets the way a machine reads it — 23 machine-readable artifacts across 5 APIs, pulled from the provider's own public surface and indexed so a developer, an analyst, or an AI agent can evaluate it against every other provider on the network.

Every provider in the network is reduced to the same set of machine-readable artifacts — OpenAPI contracts, event specifications, GraphQL schemas, runnable collections, pricing and rate-limit signals, security posture, OAuth scopes, and the agent surfaces (MCP servers and skills) that let software drive the API on its own. We profile them because the interface is the part of a company you can actually inspect: it is a truer signal of what a provider does than any marketing page. From those artifacts we compute the Kin Score — Acme Markets scores 14.9/100 (minimal), with a separate agent-readiness read of 0/100 (human only). The full breakdown is below, followed by every artifact we hold — each card links through to its machine-readable definition on apis.io.

Kin Score

This is the API Evangelist rating — a single, repeatable read computed from the artifacts on this page. Green fill is points earned; the red track is points possible, so every bar shows earned-versus-possible at a glance.

How we profile Acme Markets

Each block below is one kind of artifact we hold for Acme Markets. For each we say what it is and why it earns a place in the profile, then list every one we've indexed — capped at two rows, scroll within the panel for the rest.

APIs 5

Each API is captured as its own OpenAPI definition — every operation, parameter, and response. This is the single most useful machine-readable description of what an API does, and it's what lets us score, lint, mock, and generate against it without asking the provider for anything.
