For florists

An honest map of the tools florists run, and where each one stands with Claude: what connects today, what needs a partnership, and what we are still evaluating. We would rather tell you the real status of each than promise a blanket yes.

Florist software falls into three groups, and they connect in different ways. Some tools have a self-serve API we can read live, read-only, with access you grant. Some are wire-service systems where the wire network, not an open API, is how data moves, so a connection is a partnership. And some connect only by export, or have no public path we could find yet. Here is where each one sits.

Connect today: self-serve tools

These have a live API. Claude reads them in real time, read-only by the access you grant, behind a secure gateway.

Square, Shopify, WooCommerce, and Podium already have guides. Each connects through the tool’s own API with read access you grant. See the guides linked below.
QuickBooks Online connects self-serve through its API. This is QuickBooks Online, not QuickBooks Desktop, which is a different product with a different path.
Birdeye (reviews and messaging) connects self-serve through its API.
Clover connects self-serve through its public REST API, read-only by the scopes you grant.
Komet Sales has a public API. It is a wholesale floral system for importers, growers, and wholesalers rather than retail florists, so it fits the upstream side of the trade more than a retail shop. We note it because a connection is straightforward where it is used.
QuickFlora describes an open API for order data. We verify that path at the vendor’s developer docs before we build against it; deeper customizations are gated behind the vendor’s approval.
Floraprise advertises developer-friendly APIs and real-time webhooks. We confirm that at the vendor’s developer docs before we target it as a connection.

Needs a partnership: wire-service and marketplace tools

These are dominated by the wire-service and marketplace models, where the wire network is the channel rather than an open API. A connection here is a partnership, and the honest answer is what it would take.

FTD Mercury (Mercury HQ) is a wire-service system. A connection would be a partnership on the wire-network side. It is worth being clear about one thing: FTD’s consumer storefront runs on a Shopify-powered product, but that does not make a florist’s Mercury data reachable through a Shopify store connection. The florist’s management surface is Mercury, not a Shopify admin, so a real connection is the wire-network partnership, not a Shopify shortcut.
Teleflora Dove is a wire-service POS. A connection would be a partnership on the wire-network side.
BloomNet offers a free inbound wire-order integration today. Reading data back out of it is a business-development conversation, not a self-serve API, so that is what an outbound connection would take.
Lovingly and BloomNation run marketplace and wire models. We found no public API, so a connection would be a partner or marketplace arrangement.
Hana Florist POS offers a vendor-assisted order-sync API. We found no open developer portal, so a connection would be a vendor-assisted arrangement, which we confirm with the vendor before building.

Connect by export, or no path yet

Curate makes data export a core feature, gated by plan. There is no live API, so a connection would read a scheduled export rather than pull live data.
Details Flowers: we found no public API at the surfaces we searched, and its export path is unclear. A connection would be a partner or export arrangement we would scope with the vendor.
Floranext: we found no public API at the surfaces we searched, and it offers first-party integrations only. A connection would be a partner ask.
