# Bridge to Brands — Enable your agents to buy from every brand portal.

> Bridge to Brands enables your agents to buy from every brand portal. Claude, ChatGPT or your own agent browses brand dealer (B2B) portals, checks live warehouse availability and dealer price, and orders over MCP or a REST API. Bridge to Brands places your orders with the brand — within your caps and confirmation settings — and, for a brand whose portal is not yet verified for placing, stages the order for you to review and place in Bridge — in a signed-in portal window, never a portal login. Bridge to Brands is a product of RunOps Inc. (runops.ai).

Agents (Claude, ChatGPT, any MCP client) connect to the MCP server at https://mcp.brdg2b.ai/mcp with OAuth 2.1 or an API key; code calls the same operations over the REST API at https://api.brdg2b.ai/v1. The retailer connects the brand dealer portals they already have logins for once, at https://app.brdg2b.ai; credentials are sealed and never readable by keys or agents. People browse and order in the web Browser the same way: from the availability grid, or a pasted or uploaded list split into one basket per brand. Bridge to Brands places your orders with the brand — within your caps and confirmation settings — and, for a brand whose portal is not yet verified for placing, stages the order for you to review and place in Bridge — in a signed-in portal window, never a portal login.

## Use cases

- [AI agent ordering through brand dealer portals (MCP)](https://brdg2b.ai/use-cases/ai-agent-ordering): Bridge to Brands runs an MCP server at https://mcp.brdg2b.ai/mcp that lets AI agents such as Claude and ChatGPT search brands, read live availability and dealer pricing, and place fill-in and drop-ship orders in brand dealer portals. Agents authenticate with OAuth 2.1 or an API key; orders are placed only within your caps and confirmation settings, or staged for a person to review and place in Bridge.
- [Drop-ship API for brand dealer portals](https://brdg2b.ai/use-cases/drop-ship-api): Bridge to Brands places drop-ship orders, shipped from the brand's warehouse to your customer, in each brand's dealer portal through one REST API and MCP server. The server checks the brand's rules first: drop-ship capability, PO length, required phone or store email, and per-send limits. Orders are placed within your caps where the brand is verified and you allow it; otherwise you review and place it in Bridge.
- [Fill-in ordering API across brand dealer portals](https://brdg2b.ai/use-cases/fill-in-ordering): Bridge to Brands lets a buyer or a replenishment system check live warehouse availability for the sizes it is short on, then place at-once fill-in orders to the right store ship-to in each brand's dealer portal. One request shape covers every brand; orders are placed only within your caps and confirmation settings, or staged for a buyer to review and place in Bridge.
- [Wholesale availability feed from brand dealer portals](https://brdg2b.ai/use-cases/wholesale-availability-feed): Bridge to Brands turns each brand's dealer portal into a normalized wholesale availability feed: per colourway, sizes and widths by delivery window, quantities as the portal shows them, order limits, dealer and retail price, and an as_of timestamp. Use it to show vendor stock on your site, power endless-aisle selling, or plan buys.
