# AdEspresso (by Hootsuite)

> AdEspresso is a self-service digital advertising optimization platform for creating,
> managing, analyzing and collaborating on Facebook and Instagram (and, historically, Google)
> ad campaigns from a single dashboard. Acquired by Hootsuite in 2017. It is a SaaS product,
> not a developer platform.

note: AdEspresso does not serve /llms.txt. https://adespresso.com/llms.txt answers HTTP 200
      with a ~54.5 KB WordPress "Oops Something went wrong, you found a 404" HTML page
      (meta robots noindex) — a soft 404, not a document. This file is generated by
      API Evangelist from the public surface and is NOT published by AdEspresso.

## API status

- **No public API.** AdEspresso publishes no developer portal, no API reference, no OpenAPI /
  AsyncAPI / GraphQL SDL / Postman collection, and no MCP server or A2A agent card.
- **An API is claimed but gated.** The public pricing page lists "API access" as an
  **Enterprise-tier feature** ($259/month and up). No base URL, authentication model, scope
  list or contract is published anywhere on the public estate; the entitlement is named on the
  pricing page and nowhere else.
- **Do not confuse with Hootsuite.** The parent company runs a separate developer program at
  developer.hootsuite.com. That is Hootsuite's API, not AdEspresso's, and is profiled
  separately in this catalog.
- **Do not confuse with the Meta Marketing API.** AdEspresso is built on top of Facebook's
  Marketing API; it consumes that contract rather than exposing one.

## Contract discovery performed (2026-08-12)

- `adespresso.com` — WordPress. Its 404 handler answers **HTTP 200** with an HTML page titled
  "Oops Something went wrong, you found a 404". `/openapi.json`, `/swagger.json`,
  `/v1/openapi.json`, `/api-docs`, `/docs`, `/redoc`, `/api/`, `/developers/`, `/llms.txt` and
  every `/.well-known/*` path all return that shell. Treat 200s on this host as misses.
- `app.adespresso.com` — the product application. `/api`, `/api/v1`, `/api/v2`, `/v1`,
  `/graphql`, `/openapi.json`, `/swagger`, `/docs`, `/mcp` and every `/.well-known/*` path:
  hard **404**.
- `api.adespresso.com`, `developers.adespresso.com`, `mcp.adespresso.com`,
  `status.adespresso.com`, `trust.adespresso.com` — **NXDOMAIN**, no such host.
- `support.adespresso.com` — AdEspresso Help Centre on **Salesforce Experience Cloud**. The
  legacy Zendesk path `/hc/en-us` returns **401**. `/.well-known/openid-configuration` returns
  a real OIDC discovery document (the help-centre login), which is the only machine-readable
  document on the whole estate.

## Open source

AdEspresso's GitHub org ([github.com/adespresso](https://github.com/adespresso)) has 25 public
repositories. Eight first-party PHP/Symfony packages are published on Packagist — two internal
Symfony bundles (feature flagging, white-labelling) and six OAuth client providers for OTHER
vendors' APIs (Mailchimp, HubSpot, Intercom, Infusionsoft, GetResponse, AWeber). **None is a
client for an AdEspresso API.** The remaining repos are forks of third-party libraries.
Newest first-party release: 2019-09-06. The open-source surface has been dormant for six years.
