4D Path

4D Path, Inc. is a Newton, Massachusetts computational-pathology company founded in 2016 that builds the Q-plasia OncoReader (QPOR) platform, a patented, cloud-based precision oncology and computer-aided cancer diagnostic system. Rather than conventional image-classification AI, QPOR applies statistical physics and cancer biology to digitized H&E-stained whole-slide biopsy and resection images to measure and quantify cell-cycle deregulation and tumor immune microenvironment dynamics, producing biomarker profiling, grading and therapy-response prediction without additional molecular assays such as IHC, FISH, RNA-Seq or NGS. Its lead software-as-a-medical-device product, 4D Q-plasia OncoReader Breast, received FDA Breakthrough Device Designation in November 2020, and the company has partnered with PathPresenter to distribute the reader inside the ClinPx clinical workflow platform. 4D Path publishes no public developer program, API reference, SDK or machine-readable contract of any kind — see x-coverage.

4D Path is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Healthcare, Digital Pathology, Oncology, and Cancer Diagnostics.

4D Path’s developer surface includes engineering blog and 15 more developer resources.

scored 2026-11-06 · rubric v0.27.0
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.
Create-or-Update Ergonomics could not be measured. We hold no machine-readable contract for this provider to read, so there is nothing to measure a write surface against. Excluded rather than scored zero: never-measured and measured-empty are different facts. Publishing an OpenAPI is what makes this facet — and several others — scorable at all.
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/.

Agent readiness — checks not met, largest first (exact, from this profile):
  • Machine-Readable Contract +18 pts — api_specs includes an OpenAPI document
  • MCP Server +12 pts — deployment.mode + probe verdict on the mcp/ manifest, not the pointer; an unprobed slug falls back to authorship
  • Agentic Access Contract +10 pts — agentic_access artifact present (x-agentic-access), graded by author
  • Machine-Readable Auth +10 pts — a served openid-configuration/oauth-authorization-server carrying `issuer` (served), else the securitySchemes class in the provider OpenAPIs — bound (mutualTLS, DPoP, Signature) > negotiable (oauth2 authorizationCode/clientCredentials, openIdConnect) > bearer (http bearer, apiKey)
  • Idempotency +9 pts — OpenAPI mutating operations declare an idempotency key — a header, a request-body property, or a named de-duplication token whose own description says so (verified); else common[].type matches /idempoten/i (documented)
  • Stable Error Semantics +8 pts — OpenAPI $refs a shared error schema across 4xx/5xx responses (verified), else common[].type includes ErrorCatalog / ErrorCodes / DeclineCodes

Kin Score — facets with the most composite points still available (weight × headroom):
Each check links to what satisfies it. Publish the artifact, or tell us where it already lives, and the score moves on the next scoring run.
Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/. Every facet and dimension name above is a link: it opens that measurement's own page — what it means, the exact checks that feed it, how the whole catalog distributes on it, and the providers at the top of it. This rating is computed from the provider profile at artifacts.apis.io/4d-path/apis.yml: open an issue on github.com/api-evangelist/4d-path to ask a question or point us at an artifact you publish.

  detail: 4D Path ships the QPOR reader as a software-as-a-medical-device product consumed by pathologists inside PathPresenter's
    ClinPx whole-slide viewer, and 4dpath.com is a WordPress marketing site with no developer, API, documentation or integration
    section anywhere in its nav or sitemap; the one API-shaped host that resolves in DNS, api.4dpath.com, is an Azure Web
    App that answers Microsoft's stock 404 page for its own root and for every contract path probed, including /openapi.json
    and /swagger/v1/swagger.json.
