Wireless and Wired Connectivity Certification (Thread, USB-IF, Wi-Fi Alliance)
Register + standard market (thread, usb-if and wi-fi alliance certified products). 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
- Thread Group certified products (threadgroup.org/What-is-Thread/Certified-Products) machine-readable, ASP.NET postback grid read with the browser strategy through the page's own filters; 579 products, 137 companies, 9 device types; name only; 5 linked
- USB-IF certified product list (usb.org/products; public JSON usb.org/vtm-products/v1/all) machine-readable, 16010 products (15976 Pass), 267 companies; name only; 6 linked
- Wi-Fi Alliance product finder (wi-fi.org/product-finder; prf.cert.wi-fi.org/products/view/filtered + /products/download CSV, public) machine-readable, 81181 certified products, 635 brands; sitemap 404, the finder's own JSON / CSV used; name only; 31 linked
- Bluetooth SIG Launch Studio listings (launchstudio.bluetooth.com) not machine-readable: HEAD 400; optional per the brief, not read
- CSA certified products / Matter not machine-readable: not re-read: iot-smart-home (DCL) and apple-mfi-ecosystem (csa-iot.org REST) already read it
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 58 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.
