Brigad
Brigad is a French-founded staffing marketplace that connects verified, self-employed hospitality and healthcare professionals with businesses that need short-term cover. Founded in Paris in 2016 by Florent Malbranche, Jean Lebrument and Alexandre Rovetto, the platform pairs a talent app (for freelance chefs, waiters, bartenders, carers and nurses) with a business app (for restaurants, caterers, hotels, clinics, retirement homes and hospitals) and uses a matching algorithm to fill missions, often within hours. Brigad operates in France and the United Kingdom, has supported over 12,000 businesses and 23,000 independent professionals, and completed more than 300,000 missions. It is backed by Balderton Capital, Wendel, Serena and Square, having raised roughly €50 million to date. Brigad exposes no public developer API; this profile captures its company identity and public web properties for the API Evangelist network.
More than an index entry, but the surface is still mostly links rather than artifacts — the cohort most likely to move a full band from modest, well-targeted work.
API Evangelist profiles Brigad the way a machine reads it — 1 machine-readable artifact, 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 — Brigad scores 19.0/100 (emerging), 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 Brigad
Each block below is one kind of artifact we hold for Brigad. 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.
Security Posture 1
Authentication, domain security, vulnerability disclosure, and trust-center signals — the evidence that a provider takes security seriously enough to document it. We profile it because you can't govern what you can't see.
