Keygen
Keygen is a software licensing, entitlements, and distribution API for desktop, on-prem, IoT, and other installed applications. It issues license keys, activates and tracks machines, enforces policy-based entitlements, and distributes releases and artifacts for auto-updates. Keygen ships as the source-available, self-hostable Keygen CE / EE and as the managed Keygen Cloud, exposing a JSON:API interface under api.keygen.sh.
Keygen publishes 12 API contracts indexed on the APIs.io network, including Artifacts API, Components API, Entitlements API, and 9 more. Tagged areas include Software Licensing, Entitlements, License Keys, Machine Activation, and Distribution.
Keygen’s developer surface includes authentication, documentation, engineering blog, and 11 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Container Registries (OCI Distribution) | undeclared | - | - | 1 |
| Raycast Store Extensions (first-party publishers + community-wrapped products) | undeclared | - | - | 1 |
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.
