Branch API
A GraphQL quote-to-bind API is publicly documented at docs.v2.api.ourbranch.com with a staging sandbox and webhooks. Credentials are sales-gated through api@ourbranch.com, rate limits and SLA live inside commercial agreements, and every offer edit mints a new immutable offer ID.

Branch scores C on Supergood's API Report Card. A GraphQL quote-to-bind API is publicly documented at docs.v2.api.ourbranch.com with a staging sandbox and webhooks. Credentials are sales-gated through api@ourbranch.com, rate limits and SLA live inside commercial agreements, and every offer edit mints a new immutable offer ID.
Branch has an official API, but teams routinely hit its limits: gated access, partial coverage, or paid tiers. Most end up supplementing it with exports or an unofficial API layer like Supergood. Site terms may apply to any integration approach, and how they apply is a determination each team makes for itself.

No self-serve developer signup, API keys are sales-gated, partners cannot sign up and start building against sandbox the way Stripe/Plaid allow. Rate limits and SLA are not publicly documented, partners negotiate them inside commercial agreements rather than referring to a published table. Full sourced list under Sources below.
Common alternatives include Lemonade, Hippo Insurance, Kin Insurance, Root Insurance, Openly, Bestow. Graded alternatives appear under "More from the report card" below.
Supergood's grades measure one thing: can a customer's engineering team get their own data out programmatically? Supergood checks six things (whether a real API exists, how access is gated, data coverage, auth quality, docs and developer experience, and stability) and rolls them into a letter grade. Supergood re-verifies grades, and they only move on evidence.
Not that we could find. As of August 2026 there is no official Branch MCP server in any public registry, and no maintained community server we're aware of. We re-verify this periodically — report an inaccuracy below if we missed one.
Not natively. Branch doesn't publish an MCP server, so MCP clients like Claude, Cursor, and Codex have nothing to connect to out of the box. If that changes, this page will reflect it.
