# Takeoff Technologies

> Takeoff Technologies, Inc. is an eGrocery micro-fulfillment company founded in
> 2016 and headquartered in Waltham, Massachusetts. It combined KNAPP-built
> robotic storage and retrieval hardware with its own cloud software — order
> management, inventory, pick routing, labor and delivery orchestration — into
> micro-fulfillment centers (MFCs) installed inside or beside existing grocery
> stores, for customers including Albertsons, Wakefern, Woolworths Group and
> Chilean grocer SMU. The company filed for Chapter 11 in May 2024; Woolworths
> Group acquired its micro-fulfillment assets in August 2024.

## Status of this profile

- Takeoff has never published a public developer portal, API reference, SDK,
  Postman collection or machine-readable specification. No OpenAPI, AsyncAPI,
  GraphQL SDL, MCP server or A2A agent card was found on any Takeoff host.
- The company marketing site at https://www.takeoff.com/ no longer serves TLS:
  its Webflow origin has no certificate provisioned for the hostname, and the
  apex 301-redirects to it, so there is no reachable web presence. The last
  Internet Archive capture is 2024-09-24.
- An API DOES exist. https://api.takeoff.com is a live Google Cloud gateway with
  a certificate reissued 2026-07-16. It is entirely closed: /auth and /sites
  return `{"code":"401", "message":"Missing authentication header."}`, /webhooks
  and /identity return `{"message":"Forbidden", "path": ""}`, and every other
  path returns an empty 404. It is a customer-integration surface, not a public
  product.
- The GitHub organization https://github.com/TakeoffTech is public and still
  active (last push 2026-08-25). Its eleven repositories are internal
  engineering tooling — Clojure libraries (clj-camel, jeesql, sonar-clojure),
  GitHub Actions, Terraform for GCP, a Kubernetes Postgres operator. None of
  them is a client SDK and none contains an API specification.

## What an agent should do with this

- Do not attempt to call api.takeoff.com. There is no public credential path, no
  documented authentication header, and no self-service sign-up.
- Integration with Takeoff is arranged commercially, per grocer deployment.
  Route such requests to a human rather than to an endpoint.
