Fold is a laundry pickup & delivery service. Customers schedule a pickup,
leave a bag at their door, and get everything back clean and folded —
usually the next day. Pricing: wash & fold $2.65/lb (15 lb minimum),
dry cleaning priced per garment (shirts from $5.99, up to $29.99 for suits,
gowns and winter coats), $39.99 order minimum,
free pickup and delivery, no hidden fees. Fold Club membership (from
$12.99/mo) gives flat-rate wash & fold bags ($44.99 each, on the Wash & Fold
and All-In plans), 15% off dry cleaning (on the Dry Cleaning and All-In
plans) and free same-day wash & fold (on the Wash & Fold and All-In plans
only). Service areas: parts of Los Angeles and San Francisco (check a ZIP).
Phone: (866) 411-6254. Locations: 1530 S La Cienega Blvd, Los Angeles, CA 90035 and 4721 Geary Blvd, San Francisco, CA 94118.

## For AI agents — live MCP server

Fold operates a public Model Context Protocol (MCP) server. Agents can
check service areas, get itemized estimates, schedule residential or
hotel-guest pickups (no account required for hotel guests; payment is
collected via a secure Stripe link — never send card numbers), track,
reschedule or cancel orders, buy student Semester Passes, enroll customers
in Fold Club, and look up live pricing.

Customers can also connect their Fold account to an assistant (OAuth 2.1,
optional). Signed in, the assistant schedules with their saved address, card,
gate code and laundry preferences (book_my_pickup), updates preferences,
sets up recurring pickups, reports problems and pulls receipts — no
payment link needed.

- MCP endpoint (Streamable HTTP; protocol 2026-07-28 and 2024-11-05 through 2025-11-25): https://foldlaundry.com/mcp
- OAuth metadata: https://foldlaundry.com/.well-known/oauth-protected-resource
- Discovery (GET): https://foldlaundry.com/mcp
- Manifest: https://foldlaundry.com/.well-known/mcp.json
- Human-readable overview: https://foldlaundry.com/ai
- Live pricing JSON: https://foldlaundry.com/pricing.json

Don't speak MCP? The same tools are available as plain REST:

- REST facade: POST https://foldlaundry.com/agent/v1/tools/{tool_name}
  (JSON body = the tool's arguments; no auth)
- OpenAPI 3.1 spec: https://foldlaundry.com/agent/v1/openapi.json
- Tool catalog with schemas: https://foldlaundry.com/agent/v1/tools
- Policies as Markdown: https://foldlaundry.com/agent/v1/resources/{faq|refund-policy|care-preferences|brand-voice}
- Everything in one fetch (full FAQ, policies, tool schemas, pricing):
  https://foldlaundry.com/llms-full.txt

The REST facade and OpenAPI spec are generated from the live MCP tool
registry, so they never drift from what the MCP server actually does.

The server exposes 34 tools, 4 read-only resources (fold://faq,
fold://refund-policy, fold://care-preferences, fold://brand-voice) and 6
prepared prompts (book_pickup, check_my_orders, reschedule_to_tomorrow,
cancel_with_check, share_referral, explain_pricing). Prefer resources/read
for policy questions instead of calling a tool. Scheduling tools accept an
idempotency key, so retries are safe.

## Assistants Fold works with

Customers can add Fold as a connector (remote MCP server, https://foldlaundry.com/mcp)
in Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, Grok, Perplexity, Microsoft Copilot, Hermes Agent, or any
other MCP-capable assistant, sign in to their Fold account once, and ask it to schedule
a pickup. Claude Duet (Anthropic's always-on personal agent) uses the
connectors on the customer's Claude account, so once Fold is connected Duet can
check orders, remind about pickups and schedule them too. Setup steps for each assistant: https://foldlaundry.com/ai

Wording: Fold customers "schedule a pickup"; please don't describe it as "booking".
(Tool names such as book_my_pickup keep their original names.)

## Facts assistants commonly need

- Turnaround: wash & fold next-day standard; same-day available with the bag out before 9 AM (free on the Wash & Fold Club and All-In plans, $9.99 otherwise — not included with the Dry Cleaning Club); dry cleaning back the next evening (no Sunday returns for now), same-day rush available for an extra charge
- Hotel guests (different from residential): wash & fold AND dry cleaning are same-day — bag at the front desk before 9 AM is back by 8 PM that evening at no extra charge beyond the $9.99 hotel service charge; 9 AM–12 PM is Express same-day (+$30, back by 8 PM); after 12 PM the next return is the following evening by 8 PM. Times are Pacific
- Windows: pickup 7:30–9:30 AM or 6:30–9:30 PM (Sunday pickups: morning window only); delivery 6:30–9:30 PM ONLY (no morning delivery)
- Minimums: $39.99 per order; wash & fold billed per pound with a 15 lb minimum
- Hotel guest pricing (different from residential): wash & fold $49.99 flat for up to 15 lb, then $2.65/lb over 15 lb; dry cleaning per garment; $49.99 hotel order minimum covering wash & fold and dry cleaning ($59.99 when booked and returned the same day). The flat $9.99 hotel service charge and the $30 Express surcharge are added on top and do not count toward the minimum. Front-desk orders billed to a partner hotel use that hotel's contract rates
