GoTenna

goTenna is a mobile mesh networking company that builds off-grid, long-range communication hardware and software. Its consumer goTenna Mesh and professional goTenna Pro devices pair with smartphones over Bluetooth to relay text messages, GPS locations, and data across a decentralized VHF/UHF radio mesh with no cell towers, wifi, or satellite dependency. The Aspen Grove mesh protocol stack and the Radio SDK (RSDK) let third-party developers embed goTenna radio connectivity into Android, iOS, and Linux JVM applications for public safety, defense, and outdoor use. goTenna exposes no public REST/web API; developer integration is via the native RSDK, which requires an SDK app token obtained from goTenna.

GoTenna is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Mesh Networking, Off-Grid Communication, Radio, and SDK.

GoTenna’s developer surface includes documentation, API reference, support, and 8 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/.
