Permutive

Permutive is a predictive data collaboration and activation platform for premium publishers, advertisers and agencies. Its platform spans a Data Management Platform, a Data Clean Room for privacy-safe collaboration with 150+ premium publishers, AI-curated audiences, and the Halo agentic suite that scales direct buying. The developer platform exposes six REST APIs — Events, Identity, Contextual, Custom Cohort Segmentation, Cohorts and Taxonomy — plus web, mobile and CTV SDKs, an anonymous documentation Model Context Protocol server, and an invitation-only audience-intelligence MCP server that makes cohort discovery, reach measurement and audience comparison available to AI agents. Authentication is a workspace-scoped API key; every call is bounded by the workspace that owns the key.

Permutive publishes 5 APIs on the APIs.io network, including Contextual API, API version 1 API, V1 API, and 2 more. Tagged areas include Company, Publishing, Advertising, AdTech, and MarTech.

The Permutive catalog on APIs.io includes 1 event-driven AsyncAPI specification.

Permutive’s developer surface includes documentation, API reference, getting-started guide, quickstart, engineering blog, support, authentication, and 39 more developer resources.

x-artifacts-without-pointers:
  note: These artifacts exist on disk but deliberately carry NO common[] pointer, because each documents an ABSENCE. A pointer
    asserts the provider serves the surface; wiring one here would score a gap as a presence.
  files:
  - file: sandbox/permutive-sandbox.yml
    withheld_type: Sandbox
    reason: Permutive publishes no sandbox, no test environment and no test credentials.
  withheld_also:
  - type: SecurityTxt
    reason: No RFC 9116 security.txt is served on any Permutive host.
  - type: Deprecation
    reason: No deprecation policy and no Sunset/Deprecation header support.
  - type: Idempotency
    reason: No idempotency key on any write operation.
  - type: AsyncAPI
    reason: No AsyncAPI document published. The webhook contract is captured under Webhooks instead.

    reason: No pricing page exists; permutive.com/pricing returns 404.

  headline: Found five REAL Permutive-published OpenAPI documents (22 operations) that are not served at any public URL —
    they are mounted inside the virtual filesystem of Permutive's own documentation MCP server at docs.permutive.com/mcp.
    Also found a live A2A agent card, a provider-published Agent Skill, and the real API base host (api.permutive.app), which
    corrected the auth model, base URLs, error envelope and every skill in this repo.
