Provenmetal

ProvenMetal is a Y Combinator (Summer 2026) startup building fast-turn, American-made printed circuit board (PCB) assembly. The company lets customers upload a Gerber file, automatically infers the board specification, and returns instant quoting for a 7-day standard turnaround with no expedite fees. ProvenMetal automates the traditional manufacturing bottlenecks — part procurement, design for manufacturability (DFM) review, and assembly — and performs 100% X-ray inspection of every board (AI-assisted, cited at 99.8% confidence) before shipment, including the inspection data with each order. It is a domestic B2B PCB manufacturing service aimed at reshoring electronics production, operated out of San Francisco. As of this profile ProvenMetal exposes a customer ordering portal at order.provenmetal.com but publishes no public developer API, SDKs, or technical documentation.

Provenmetal is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, PCB, Printed Circuit Boards, Electronics Manufacturing, and Hardware.

Provenmetal’s developer surface includes developer portal, signup flow, support, and 5 more developer resources.

Create-or-Update Ergonomics could not be measured. We hold no machine-readable contract for this provider to read, so there is nothing to measure a write surface against. Excluded rather than scored zero: never-measured and measured-empty are different facts. Publishing an OpenAPI is what makes this facet — and several others — scorable at all.

Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/. Every facet and dimension name above is a link: it opens that measurement's own page — what it means, the exact checks that feed it, how the whole catalog distributes on it, and the providers at the top of it. This rating is computed from github.com/api-evangelist/provenmetal: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts.
