Kevala
Kevala Inc. is a San Francisco based grid intelligence company, founded in 2014, that builds a cloud-based electric-grid data and analytics platform for utilities, regulators and government agencies, renewable energy developers, and transportation electrification planners. The platform merges address-specific geospatial data, utility network models and hyper-granular time-series data into map-based analytics for integrated grid planning, distributed energy resource (DER) adoption forecasting, project siting, power flow analysis, locational carbon accounting, production cost modeling, and predictive interconnection siting metrics, with exports compatible with CYME, Synergi, PSS/E and OpenDSS. Kevala licenses its data and analysis by subscription and operates an authenticated platform API at api.kevala.com; the DER metering surface publishes an OpenAPI document and a ReDoc reference, but both require platform credentials and no public developer portal, API reference or machine-readable specification is served anonymously.
Kevala is listed with 1 API on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Energy, Electricity, Electric Grid, and Grid Analytics.
Kevala’s developer surface includes signup flow, engineering blog, release notes, changelog, authentication, and 23 more developer resources.
Kin Score
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.
| Market | Position | Depth | Registered MCP server | Declares compatibility |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| LF Energy Projects and Members (grid, DER, EV charging open source) | undeclared | - | - | - |
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 implemented 1
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.
