TaskRabbit

TaskRabbit is a gig-economy marketplace connecting customers with local, vetted Taskers for furniture assembly, handyman work, moving, and other home services. Ingka Group (IKEA) acquired TaskRabbit in 2017 and has since deepened the integration, including in-store and checkout-time TaskRabbit assembly booking at IKEA. TaskRabbit's original developer story dates to February 2012, when it ran an open API that let third-party to-do apps (Astrid, Producteev) create tasks on a user's behalf; that early open, self-serve API is long gone. In November 2024 TaskRabbit acquired on-demand delivery company Dolly and rebranded its service as TaskRabbit Delivery. Today TaskRabbit operates one gated Partner API program (developer.taskrabbit.com) spanning two live surfaces - Delivery (built on Dolly's pre-existing Partner API, "PAPI") and a newer, 2025-12-versioned Home Services Partner Platform (Estimate, Availability, Bid, Book) that lets approved partners quote, book, and manage TaskRabbit projects, including IKEA-style furniture assembly, inside their own apps. Access requires partner approval (TaskRabbit reviews requests within about two business days) and Auth0 OAuth2 client-credentials (machine-to-machine) tokens; there is no public self-serve signup and no published API price list, since commercial terms are negotiated per partner. End-customer pricing on TaskRabbit itself follows a standard Service Fee plus Trust & Support Fee structure layered on top of each Tasker's hourly rate.

agent aware

Limited machine-readable signal and partial portal coverage — documentation a human can read, but little a machine or agent can consume without scraping.

Kin Score

API Evangelist profiles TaskRabbit the way a machine reads it — 10 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 — TaskRabbit scores 35.1/100 (thin), with a separate agent-readiness read of 41/100 (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 TaskRabbit

Each block below is one kind of artifact we hold for TaskRabbit. 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.

Individual APIs this provider publishes, each with its own machine-readable definition.

TaskRabbit Delivery API

Dolly-based on-demand delivery, quoting, and routing.

TaskRabbit Home Services Availability API

Real-time bookable time windows for Home Services projects.

TaskRabbit Home Services Booking API

Bid, book, retrieve, cancel, and reschedule Home Services projects.

TaskRabbit Home Services Catalog API

Partner brand service catalog for Home Services.

TaskRabbit Home Services Estimate API

Pricing and eligibility estimation for Home Services projects.

Pricing Plans 1

Pricing is part of the interface. Machine-readable plans tell you what a tier costs and includes before you commit — one of the six things the Kin Score reads for commercial clarity.

Published pricing tiers and plan structures.

Security 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.

Scopes 1

OAuth scopes are the vocabulary of least-privilege access. Profiling them shows exactly what an integration — or an agent acting on a user's behalf — is allowed to do.

Agentic Access 1

An x-agentic-access contract marks which operations are safe for an agent to run on its own and which need a human in the loop. It is the difference between an API an agent can use and one it can use safely.
