Channable
Channable is a feed management and marketplace integration platform that helps online retailers, brands, and agencies optimize, distribute, and advertise their product data across more than 2,500 marketing channels, price comparison sites, affiliate networks, and online marketplaces. Beyond feed optimization and PPC ad automation, Channable operates an order-connection layer that synchronizes orders, shipments, stock, and returns between marketplaces and a seller's ERP, WMS, or e-commerce platform. The Channable order connection API (v1) exposes this layer programmatically: retailers and platform integrators can retrieve orders and returns, post shipment and cancellation updates, push stock/offer updates to every connected marketplace at once, upload order attachments, resolve standardized transporter codes, and pull order statistics. Authentication is a company-level bearer token, requests are rate limited per company with a leaky-bucket policy, and a Channable Sandbox connection lets integrators test order flows without touching live marketplaces.
Real signal across most facets with visible, nameable gaps — the contract exists but is thin, or the portal is good while governance and commercial terms are absent.
API Evangelist profiles Channable the way a machine reads it — 9 machine-readable artifacts across 6 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 — Channable scores 46.3/100 (developing), with a separate agent-readiness read of 28/100 (agent aware). 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 Channable
Each block below is one kind of artifact we hold for Channable. 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 6
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.
Individual APIs this provider publishes, each with its own machine-readable definition.
Channable order_attachments API
The order_attachments API from Channable — 2 operation(s) for order_attachments.
Channable orders API
The orders API from Channable — 10 operation(s) for orders.
Channable returns API
The returns API from Channable — 5 operation(s) for returns.
Channable statistics API

Rate Limits 1
Rate limits are the difference between a demo that works and a production integration that doesn't fall over. Publishing them is an operational-transparency signal — and a hard requirement for any agent that plans its own throughput.
Documented rate limits and quota policies.

RATE LIMITSSecurity Posture 2
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.
