Moody's Corporation (NYSE: MCO) is a global integrated risk-assessment firm operating through two segments: Moody's Ratings (Moody's Investors Service), which publishes credit ratings and assessment services on debt obligations, and Moody's Analytics, which provides data, software, research, and APIs spanning economic data, credit risk, KYC/AML, ESG, climate, and catastrophe modeling. Moody's Analytics products are exposed through multiple developer APIs and a portal at developer.moodys.com, with deeper API surfaces published at api.economy.com (Data Buffet, Scenario Studio, AutoCycle, ECCL) and through subsidiary brands including Bureau van Dijk (Orbis), RMS (catastrophe risk), Kompany / Passfort (KYC), and Four Twenty Seven (climate).
Moody’s publishes 17 API contracts indexed on the APIs.io network, including Corporation Authentication API, Corporation Baskets API, Corporation Catalog API, and 14 more. Tagged areas include Analytics, Catastrophe Risk, Climate Risk, Compliance, and Credit Ratings.
The Moody’s catalog on APIs.io includes 1 JSON-LD context and 2 Spectral governance rulesets.
Moody’s’ developer surface includes authentication, developer portal, engineering blog, and 15 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/.

Agent readiness — checks not met, largest first (exact, from this profile):
MCP Server+12 pts — deployment.mode + probe verdict on the mcp/ manifest, not the pointer; an unprobed slug falls back to authorship
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
Request/Response Examples+7 pts — share of operations carrying request/response examples; else an Examples / Code Samples link
Delegated User Identity+6 pts — a served discovery document listing authorization_code in grant_types_supported (served), else an oauth2 authorizationCode flow or openIdConnect declared in an OpenAPI (documented)
9 more unmet checks in the Agent Readiness table above.

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.
