Placer
Placer.ai is a location analytics and foot-traffic intelligence platform that measures visits, trade areas, demographics, and consumer behavior for physical points of interest across retail, CPG, commercial real estate, hospitality, and the public sector. Its public developer surface, the Placer API (PAPI, base https://papi.placer.ai), lets developers and data analysts extract Placer's location analytics programmatically to enrich, filter, or combine it with other data sources for custom dashboards, internal reporting, and competitive analysis. The v1 REST API covers entity/POI search, custom POI and tag management, and a suite of report endpoints spanning visit metrics and trends, trade area (true trade area, drive-time, demographics), ranking, loyalty, and retail sales. Authentication is a static API key sent in the x-api-key header.
Placer publishes 8 API contracts indexed on the APIs.io network, including Account Info API, Loyalty Reports API, Manage POIs API, and 5 more. Tagged areas include Company, Location Analytics, Foot Traffic, Geospatial, and Retail Analytics.
The Placer catalog on APIs.io includes 1 Spectral governance ruleset.
Placer’s developer surface includes documentation, API reference, getting-started guide, authentication, changelog, support, engineering blog, 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Data Marketplaces (data providers on cloud data platforms) | standard | 29.3 | - | 1 |
| Surveys, Market Research and Experience Management | standard | 29.3 | - | 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.
