Unofficial — not affiliated with or endorsed by Robinhood

Place Robinhood orders from any workflow

A clean REST API on top of Robinhood’s official MCP server. Your credentials stay with Robinhood — we never see them. One endpoint to buy, sell, and check positions.

Auth handled end-to-end by Robinhood’s MCP — scoped, revocable, audited.

How it works

Secured by Robinhood’s own MCP — we’re just the API in front of it

We don’t scrape, reverse-engineer, or store your login. Every order is routed through the Model Context Protocol server that Robinhood itself provides.

1

Connect your Robinhood account

You authorize directly on Robinhood via their official MCP connection flow. Your password and 2FA never pass through our servers.

2

Get a scoped API key

We issue you a key bound to that MCP session. Scope it to orders:write, positions:read, or both — and revoke it any time.

3

Call one clean REST endpoint

Your script or agent hits POST /v1/orders. We translate it to an MCP tool call and Robinhood executes it under your authorization.

your script / agent Robin API REST Robinhood MCP your brokerage account Credentials live only in the last two boxes — both operated by Robinhood.

What you can build

One write endpoint, a thousand workflows

Anything that can make an HTTP request — an agent, a cron job, a webhook — can now read your positions and place orders under the limits you set.

Event-driven alerts

Place an alert when Trump tweets about a stock you hold — then let your workflow decide whether to hedge, sell, or sit tight.

oc

Connect any agent

One block in your OpenClaw config — or any MCP-compatible agent — and place_order, cancel_order, and get_positions appear as tools.

openclaw.config.json "hood-api": { "type": "mcp", "url": "api.robinapi.com" }

Finally, a write API

Not just quotes and read-only data — a real, secure API to place orders. Scoped keys and spend caps keep every workflow on a leash.

Security

Unofficial doesn’t mean unsafe

The entire trust model rests on one fact: authentication and execution happen inside Robinhood’s official MCP. We are a translator, not a custodian.

no_creds

Zero credential storage

We never receive, transmit, or store your Robinhood username, password, or 2FA codes. Authorization happens on Robinhood’s domain.

mcp_only

Official MCP transport

Every order travels through the MCP server Robinhood operates. No scraping, no private endpoints, no session-cookie tricks.

scoped

Scoped, revocable keys

Keys can be read-only, order-only, or symbol-restricted. Revoke one key without touching the others — instantly.

limits

Hard spend limits

Set a max order size and daily notional cap per key. Anything over the cap is rejected before it ever reaches Robinhood.

audit

Full audit log

Every request — who, what, when, from which key — is logged and exportable. Agents make mistakes; you’ll see exactly what happened.

kill

One-click kill switch

Pause all trading across every key from the dashboard or via POST /v1/killswitch. Takes effect immediately.

FAQ

The questions you should be asking

Is this an official Robinhood product? +

No. We are an independent service with no affiliation, partnership, or endorsement from Robinhood Markets, Inc. What we build on is official: Robinhood’s own MCP server handles all authentication and order execution. We provide the REST layer and tooling around it.

How is it secure if it’s unofficial? +

Because we never touch your credentials. You authorize on Robinhood’s domain through their MCP connection flow — the same way you’d connect any MCP client. We hold only a scoped, revocable token, and you can add spend limits and a kill switch on top.

What can my agent actually do with a key? +

Only what the key’s scope allows: positions:read, quotes:read, orders:write — optionally restricted to specific symbols and capped at a daily notional. An agent with a read-only key cannot place an order, full stop.

What happens if Robinhood changes their MCP? +

Our API contract stays stable — we absorb upstream changes in the translation layer. If Robinhood ever deprecates the MCP entirely, we’ll notify you immediately and pause billing rather than fall back to unsafe methods.

Can I cancel anytime? +

Yes. One plan, monthly billing, cancel from the dashboard in one click. Your keys are revoked at the end of the billing period.

Give your agent a brokerage account.
Keep the keys yourself.

Set up takes about four minutes — most of it on Robinhood’s side.
