Regulatory Posture applies to this provider. Its tags matched the Securities & Market Data 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 does not apply to this provider. The published contracts declare no write operations, and a read-only API cannot create-or-update. The facet is excluded from this provider's denominator entirely — not scored zero. A reference or data API is not deficient for being unable to upsert.

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/cledara: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts.

Markets this provider is in provisional

The Kin Score Market layer reads a provider inside its market: its position, and how deep its integrations go. Depth is only comparable within a position. Provisional and unweighted: not part of the Kin Score or agent readiness.

Market	Position	Depth	Registered MCP server	Declares compatibility
Accounting and Finance Ops	builds-on	17.2 (thin)	-	-

Registered MCP server and declares compatibility are report only — not weighted. Undeclared means we found nothing we can read, so there is no number: we never infer integrations.

  description: 'Cledara''s public SaaS and AI market dataset — market share, adoption, rank movement and spend benchmarks
    across 9,300+ software products, built from aggregated anonymized purchasing signals from companies that pay for software
    through Cledara. It is published as browsable pages, an Atom feed of dated market movements, a natural-language query
    page, and a remote MCP endpoint at https://data.cledara.com/mcp. The MCP endpoint is OAuth-protected: tools/list returns
    401 without a token, and the host serves a complete RFC 8414 authorization-server metadata document with dynamic client
    registration, PKCE S256 and a single mcp:read scope. Bulk non-MCP programmatic access is sales-gated behind a mailto.
    This is a different product from the workspace REST API at api.cledara.com and the two share no data and no credential.'
