FousAvinode Marketplace

Turn the Avinode Marketplace into an API

Read the trips, RFQs and operator quotes on your Avinode Trips Buying and Selling pages with one API call each. Then have a workflow list the RFQs still Unanswered each morning and post new operator quotes to your trip system every 15 minutes.

Works with your own Avinode Marketplace account. Fous is an independent product.

Automate Avinode with a workflow

A workflow runs your methods as one process, with nobody at the screen. A schedule or a call from your own system starts it, the steps run in order, and the result arrives in your inbox or in the systems you already use.

  • Unanswered RFQs, every weekday morning

    Build this
    Starts
    Every weekday at 7:00
    Step 1
    List the incoming RFQs on Trips Selling with status Unanswered.
    Step 2
    Keep the ones that depart in the next 14 days.
    Step 3
    Email you the list, soonest departure first.
  • New operator quotes, posted to your trip system

    Build this
    Starts
    Every 15 minutes
    Step 1
    Get the quotes on your trips created in the last 7 days.
    Step 2
    Keep the RFQs whose status or price changed since the last run.
    Step 3
    Post each one, with Trip ID, operator, aircraft type, status and price, to your webhook.
  • Empty legs on your routes, every Monday

    Build this
    Starts
    Every Monday at 8:00
    Step 1
    For each route you name, find the empty legs for the next 30 days.
    Step 2
    Keep the empty legs that were not there on the last run.
    Step 3
    Email you the new ones, grouped by route.

You can run a workflow by hand on every plan, Free included. Schedules and webhook triggers come with the paid plans, from $29 a month.

Once built, one call from your code

Once you have built a method, it is one POST to /v1/runs from your backend, or a tool an AI agent calls over MCP. This is what “Get quotes on your trips” would look like.

Example request
curl https://api.fous.com/v1/runs \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $FOUS_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "method": "marketplace.avinode.com/get_trip_quotes",
    "input": {
      "trip_id": "KXPQ4T"
    }
  }'
Example response
{
  "status": "completed",
  "data": {
    "trip_id": "KXPQ4T",
    "itinerary": [
      {
        "from": "KTEB",
        "to": "KPBI",
        "date": "2026-11-20",
        "time": "09:00"
      }
    ],
    "passengers": 6,
    "rfqs": [
      {
        "operator": "Acme Jets",
        "aircraft_category": "Midsize jet",
        "aircraft_type": "Citation XLS+",
        "status": "Accepted",
        "price": 31400,
        "currency": "USD"
      }
    ]
  }
}

An example with invented data, not a ready-made endpoint. The method exists in your organization once you build it, and its name, inputs and fields follow your request.

Avinode’s own options

Avinode offers APIs to its members. Operators get the seller API with their membership; brokers get the buyer API as a paid add-on on Advanced and included in Ultimate, with none on Starter. Avinode or Schedaero support creates each connection for one company account, after you define the use case and Avinode reviews your solution before it goes live.

Signing in to Avinode

Each Avinode user signs in to the Marketplace with a personal username, and single sign-on with one set of credentials is part of the broker Ultimate plan and an add-on for operators. With Fous you sign in once through Avinode's own sign-in with your own account: the login is sealed with AES-256, code and AI agents never see it, and an expired session is signed back in.

Worth knowing

Search results stay in the web app
A buyer API call creates the trip and returns a link that opens the search in Avinode with the details filled in. Search results are not returned through the API, and broker back-end integrations may not use POST /searches.
One API connection per company
Each API connection belongs to one member company's account and is created by Avinode or Schedaero support. A connection unused for 60 days is deactivated.
Declining by RFQ declines every lift
An RFQ can ask for several lifts: a tail, an aircraft type or a category. Declining by the RFQ ID declines all of them, and a canceled trip cannot be answered.
One call per second per endpoint
The Marketplace APIs allow a steady 1 call per second per application and endpoint, with some room for bursts. Calls over the limit get HTTP 429.

Frequently asked questions

Yes, for members. Operators get the seller API with their membership, for schedule upload and answering RFQs. Brokers get the buyer API as a paid add-on on Advanced or included in Ultimate. Avinode or Schedaero support creates each connection, and Avinode reviews your solution before it goes live.

Not from a broker back-end integration. The buyer API creates the trip and returns a link that opens the search in Avinode's web app with the trip details filled in. Search results are not returned through the API, and POST /searches is only for end-client integrations.

Ultimate includes it. On Advanced it is an add-on at extra cost, and Starter has no API. All plans are prepaid for 6 or 12 months, and Avinode says prices vary by location.

Open the trip on the Trips Buying page. Each RFQ shows its status, for example Unanswered or Accepted, with the operator, the aircraft and the quote once the operator has replied.

No. Fous is an independent product. You use it with your own Avinode account, and a method reads and does only what that account can.
