23andMe

23andMe is a consumer genetics company founded in 2006 that sells saliva-based DNA test kits and returns ancestry composition across 4,500+ regions, DNA relative matching, FDA-cleared genetic health predisposition and carrier-status reports, pharmacogenetics, polygenic risk scores, wellness and trait insights, plus a Total Health tier adding exome sequencing, biannual blood testing and genetics-informed telehealth. It is now operated by the 23andMe Research Institute, a non-profit, following the company's 2025 Chapter 11 bankruptcy; the canonical consumer domain migrated from 23andme.com to 23andme.org, which serves the company's llms.txt, trust center and shop. 23andMe published a scope-gated OAuth 2.0 Personal Genome API at api.23andme.com but closed general third-party developer access in September 2018. It still markets API and raw-data integration through the 23andMe Marketplace as a partner arrangement, though no machine-readable contract, API reference, pricing or rate limits are published publicly, and the developer portal host answers a Cloudflare bot challenge to anonymous requests.

23andMe is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Health Tech, Genetics, Genomics, and DNA Testing.

23andMe’s developer surface includes engineering blog, support, pricing, and 15 more developer resources.

Regulatory Posture applies to this provider. Its tags matched the Health regime, so Regulatory Posture carries 15 points of the composite. If this regime is wrong for your business, say so on your provider repo — the applicability map is public and we will correct it.
The six quality facets above are damped to 85 points between them, because the conditional facet above carries the other 15. That is why each facet's contribution is shown against a damped maximum: raising a quality facet moves the composite by 85% of its nominal weight, not 100%. The full arithmetic is at apis.io/rating/.
Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/. This rating is computed from github.com/api-evangelist/23andme: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts. Want it done for you? Prioritized profiling — $2,500 →

  reason: null
  detail: 'Contract discovery completed against every 23andMe host and found no machine-readable API: the consumer surface
    migrated to www.23andme.org, whose 642-URL sitemap contains no developer page, and the legacy Personal Genome API host
    api.23andme.com answers a Cloudflare managed challenge on every path. What 23andMe does serve from its own hosts, and
    what was captured verbatim here, is an llms.txt, a live Marketplace developer page that gates API access behind marketplace@23andme.com,
    a nine-certification trust center, and a HackerOne bug bounty.'

x-pointers-withheld:
  note: Pointers deliberately NOT emitted, so a later pass does not read their absence as an oversight. Each was probed and
    missed.
  withheld:
  - type: WellKnown
    reason: Every /.well-known/ path on every host returned 404. See well-known/23andme-well-known.yml.
  - type: SecurityTxt
    reason: No RFC 9116 security.txt is served on any 23andMe host.
  - type: AgentCard
    reason: No agent card at /.well-known/agent-card.json or /.well-known/agent.json on any host (all 404). Never generated
      or derived.
  - type: MCPServer
    reason: No first-party MCP server, remote or stdio. See mcp/23andme-mcp.yml.
  - type: SDKs
    reason: No first-party API client library exists in any registry. The three official packages found (styledot, styledot-docs,
      yamale) are a design system and a YAML validator, not API clients.
  - type: StatusPage
    reason: status.23andme.com and status.23andme.org are both NXDOMAIN.
  - type: Deprecation
    reason: No deprecation or sunset policy is published.
  - type: DeveloperPortal
    reason: https://api.23andme.com/dev/ is linked from the live Marketplace page but returns a Cloudflare managed challenge
      (403) to anonymous requests, so no portal could be confirmed to render.
  - type: Postman
    reason: Postman public search for "23andme" returns zero collections, APIs or workspaces.
