Ancora Heart

Ancora Heart, Inc. is a privately held medical device company headquartered at 4001 Burton Drive, Santa Clara, California, developing transcatheter therapies for people living with heart failure. Its lead product is the AccuCinch Ventricular Restoration System, a completely transcatheter implant designed to reduce the size of an enlarged left ventricle and restore cardiac structure and function in patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) who remain symptomatic on guideline-directed medical therapy. The device is investigational and is being evaluated in the CORCINCH-HF study (NCT04331769), a prospective randomized international trial enrolling up to 400 patients across as many as 80 centers, alongside the CORCINCH-EU program in Europe. Ancora Heart is a medical device manufacturer rather than a software company: it publishes a marketing and clinical-information website for patients and physicians, and operates no public developer program, API, or SDK.

Ancora Heart is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Medical Devices, Healthcare, Cardiology, and Heart Failure.

Ancora Heart’s developer surface includes support, engineering blog, YouTube channel, and 9 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.
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/.
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 github.com/api-evangelist/ancora-heart: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts.

  detail: Ancora Heart manufactures an implantable cardiac device (the AccuCinch Ventricular Restoration System) and runs
    ancoraheart.com purely as a WordPress marketing and clinical-trial information site; the only machine-readable endpoint
    on the domain is the WordPress core REST API that ships with the CMS, and every contract-discovery path returns the site's
    soft-404 HTML shell with a 200.
