Gracenote, a Nielsen company, provides entertainment metadata, content recognition technology, and developer APIs for the TV, video, music, sports and automotive industries, powering content discovery, search and personalization across linear and streaming services worldwide. It publishes ten first-party OpenAPI 3.1.1 definitions covering 298 operations — TV schedules and program data (On API, OnConnect, GVD), the GN IDS content-submission API, global music data (GMD v2 and v3 Beta), automotive in-car entertainment (Nexus) and global sports data — plus two production Model Context Protocol servers for video and sports that ground LLM answers in Gracenote's verified metadata. Access is licensed through sales rather than self-serve.
Gracenote publishes 78 API contracts indexed on the APIs.io network, including Celebrities API, Lineups API, Movies API, and 75 more. Tagged areas include Artificial Intelligence, Automotive, Content Metadata, Entertainment, and MCP.
The Gracenote catalog on APIs.io includes 1 Spectral governance ruleset.
Gracenote’s developer surface includes authentication, documentation, getting-started guide, support, engineering blog, changelog, sandbox, and 45 more developer resources.
Regulatory Posture applies to this provider. Its tags matched the
Horizontal (data, software, accessibility, platform) 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 applies to this provider. This API accepts writes, so it
carries 10 points of the composite. It is scored from the published contracts
themselves: whether a caller can create-or-update in one call, whether the write accepts a key the caller already
holds, and whether the response says which branch ran. Without that, every write needs a search-and-branch in
front of it, and the first time that check is skipped a duplicate record is created.
Scored against the observed mean rather than raw — a provider at the catalog average is unchanged by this facet,
not penalised by it.
The six quality facets above are damped to 75 points between them,
because the conditional facet above carries the other
25. That is why each facet's contribution is shown against a damped
maximum: raising a quality facet moves the composite by 75% of its nominal
weight, not 100%. The full arithmetic is at apis.io/rating/.
Show this score on your site.
It updates itself when the score changes. Paste this where you link to your API docs:

Agent readiness — checks not met, largest first (exact, from this profile):
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
Typed Event Surface+6 pts — AsyncAPI document, OR webhooks/callbacks objects in the as-published OpenAPI, OR common[].type includes Webhooks
Documented Reversibility+6 pts — a reversal operation in the contract, graded up when a window is documented too
Pagination+5 pts — share of collection GETs (an array, or one wrapped in data/items/results ...) that declare a page/limit/offset/cursor parameter, a Link header or a next/cursor field; na with no collection GETs
4 more unmet checks in the Agent Readiness table above.
Kin Score — facets with the most composite points still available (weight × headroom):
Access Clarityscores 27.6 — up to +14.5 composite points
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.
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.
Standards this provider implements or carries. De facto ones are profiled and measured by the API Commons; formal ones come from the standards directory and are linked by the provider's own tags. The evidence column says how each claim was established — not that it was made.
