Clockworks Analytics

Clockworks Analytics is a Boston-area building-analytics company whose cloud platform performs automated fault detection and diagnostics (FDD) on HVAC and building systems. It ingests interval data from Building Management Systems through the Clockworks Connect gateway, runs a curated library of root-cause diagnostics, and quantifies each performance issue by avoidable energy cost plus energy, comfort and maintenance priority on a 0-10 scale. Its public REST API is delivered through Azure API Management on rest.buildingsapi.net as four containers — core-base (clients, buildings, equipment, points, users), core-diag (diagnostic records), core-kpis (KQL-driven aggregated datasets) and workorders (Tasks / CMMS work-order sync) — and is documented publicly at cw.clockworksanalytics.com plus a public Confluence developer guide set for CMMS and KPI integration.

Clockworks Analytics publishes 4 APIs on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Building Analytics, Fault Detection and Diagnostics, HVAC, and Energy Management.

Clockworks Analytics’ developer surface includes documentation, API reference, getting-started guide, support, engineering blog, changelog, authentication, and 16 more developer resources.

Regulatory Posture applies to this provider. Its tags matched the Energy & Utilities 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/.

    task records and users — as JSON:API-shaped documents. Authenticated with an Azure API Management subscription key in
    the Ocp-Apim-Subscription-Key header.

  detail: The public REST reference at cw.clockworksanalytics.com is fully readable and four Azure API Management containers
    on rest.buildingsapi.net were confirmed live, but Clockworks publishes no OpenAPI, AsyncAPI, GraphQL SDL or Postman collection
    anywhere — the APIM developer portal returns an empty API list to anonymous callers.
