This page carries no rating. Capabilities are not rated. A capability is a description of what a business does, not a thing a company publishes, so a Kin Score would have nothing to measure.
The edge table is a Pro feature.
This page shows which providers and tags reach SMS & Messaging Apps. The underlying
tag → capability edges — each with the quoted fragment of the provider's own
OpenAPI that evidences it, a calibrated confidence score, and the contract-provenance gate
it passed — are available through the API, along with company-level capability maps.
Only edges at confidence ≥ 0.7 with evidence found verbatim in
the source contract are published at all.
