Cronometer

Cronometer is a Canadian nutrition tracking app and calorie counter, started in 2005 by founder Aaron Davidson. It tracks macronutrients, micronutrients, exercise and biometrics, using verified, lab-analyzed food data from sources such as the Nutrition Coordinating Center and the USDA rather than crowdsourced entries. It ships web, iOS and Android apps with a free Basic tier and a paid Gold subscription, plus Cronometer Pro for dietitians, nutritionists, trainers and health coaches, and an Enterprise offering for healthcare, research and education. It does not publish a public developer API: no developer portal or API documentation was found on cronometer.com, and community forum threads say API access is only given to select partners.

Cronometer is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Nutrition, Health, Fitness, and Calorie Counter.

Cronometer’s developer surface includes engineering blog, support, pricing, signup flow, YouTube channel, 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.
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
  • 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)
  • A2A Agent Card +8 pts — a2a/-a2a.yml manifest, graded on conformance.grade against A2A 1.0.0
  • Stable Error Semantics +8 pts — OpenAPI $refs a shared error schema across 4xx/5xx responses (verified), else common[].type includes ErrorCatalog / ErrorCodes / DeclineCodes
7 more unmet checks in the Agent Readiness table above.
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/cronometer/apis.yml: open an issue on github.com/api-evangelist/cronometer to ask a question or point us at an artifact you publish.
