Heirloom

Heirloom Carbon Technologies, Inc. is a San Francisco Bay Area direct air capture (DAC) company that removes carbon dioxide from the atmosphere by accelerating the natural mineralization of limestone. Heirloom spreads calcium oxide on vertical trays where it re-absorbs atmospheric CO2 in days rather than years, then uses electric kilns to release the captured CO2 for permanent geologic or in-concrete storage. The company opened the first commercial DAC facility in the United States, sells permanent carbon removal credits to individuals, businesses and enterprises, and has signed offtake agreements with Microsoft, Frontier, United's Sustainable Flight Fund and CarbonCure. It is an industrial climate-technology company; it does not operate a public developer program or API.

Heirloom is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Carbon Removal, Direct Air Capture, Climate Technology, and Carbon Credits.

Heirloom’s developer surface includes engineering blog, support, pricing, and 5 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.

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/.

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.

Markets this provider is in provisional

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.
