Education and Edtech
Standards market (1edtech certification) plus rostering and lms app galleries. The Kin Score Market layer reads each provider in its market: who it integrates with, how deep those integrations go, and where the market publishes its own structure. Methodology.
Where this market publishes its structure
- 1EdTech certified product directory / TrustEd Apps (site.imsglobal.org/certifications, Algolia prod_PD_V2) machine-readable
- Clever App Gallery (clever.com/app-gallery, apps_list JSON) machine-readable
- ClassLink partners (classlink.com/company/partners) machine-readable, partly
- EduAppCenter LTI app catalog for Canvas (eduappcenter.com/api/v1/lti_apps) machine-readable, legacy catalog; tool host domains only
- D2L Brightspace Integration Hub not machine-readable: SPA over a CSRF-protected API
- Anthology / Blackboard partner directory not machine-readable: marketing page; directory 404
- Schoology App Center not machine-readable: profiles carry no developer domain
- Instructure partner pages not machine-readable: logos, no partner links
- Moodle plugins directory not machine-readable: JSON, but community plugins without vendor domains
Own = declares at least one integration itself; covered = visible only because an aggregator, standards body, regulator or partner contract names it; distribution-only = listed only on cloud marketplaces it sells through, a channel reported beside, never counted as its own declared integrations; undeclared = nothing we can read, so no number; declares_compatibility = providers with a `compatible` shape vote, report only (kin, 2026-10-13): never counted as own, never in depth or position.
Taxonomy how this market maps onto apis.io
Derived 2026-10-23 from the 38 providers in this market we could resolve in the catalog. The percentage is the share of those providers carrying each one; it describes the market, not the tag or industry. Tag groups have no page of their own yet, so they are listed unlinked.

Leaders by position (provisional)
Provisional: grouped by position, depth compared within a position only. Distribution (cloud marketplaces) and iPaaS bridges are counted beside position, never inside it. Unknown-builder listings are left out of position shares and counted here.

Workflows
No in-market workflows yet; bridges: 4 (4 not yet mapped to a capability). In-market workflows only: a step on the market provider's side maps to this market's business capabilities (BC-4700, BC-4720, BC-4730, BC-4740), and the partner is not a generic export/notify app. Other workflows are counted as bridges (including any whose steps do not resolve to a capability yet).
