GridPoint

GridPoint is a Reston, Virginia clean-technology company, founded in 2003, that builds energy management and sustainability systems for commercial buildings, enterprises and government agencies. It combines its own edge hardware — EC2000 and Edge controllers, submeters, thermostats, lighting control panels and BACnet/Modbus gateways — with the cloud-based GridPoint Energy Manager analytics platform, delivering HVAC and lighting automation, equipment-level submetering, refrigeration monitoring, demand management, grid services and carbon/sustainability reporting for multi-site portfolios in retail, convenience, restaurant, automotive and public-sector estates. GridPoint sells the platform as a subscription service and integrates with existing building assets rather than requiring a rip-and-replace. It operates a customer application, a partner commissioning channel and a public knowledge base, but publishes no developer portal, no API reference and no machine-readable API contract; the only machine-readable artifacts it serves anonymously are the OpenID Connect discovery and JWKS documents of its own authorization server.

GridPoint is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Energy, Energy Management, Buildings, and Building Automation.

GridPoint’s developer surface includes documentation, support, engineering blog, signup flow, authentication, and 17 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/. This rating is computed from github.com/api-evangelist/gridpoint: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts. Want it done for you? Prioritized profiling — $2,500 →

  detail: GridPoint has no developer surface at all — developer/docs/api.gridpoint.com do not resolve and knowledge.gridpoint.com
    is hardware troubleshooting — yet its own ORY Hydra authorization server anonymously advertises the client_credentials
    grant plus ROLE_PARTNER_* and ROLE_SYSTEM scopes, so the API exists and is reachable only by an authenticated customer
    or commissioning partner.
