Skimmer

Skimmer is pool-service business management software (customers, bodies of water, service stops and routes, work orders, quotes, invoices, and billing) used by residential and commercial pool-service companies. Skimmer exposes a real, documented public REST API at https://publicapi.getskimmer.com, with a Zudoku-based developer portal at https://devportal.getskimmer.com. The API is enterprise-oriented and access is sales-led - it is available only on Skimmer's top ("Owning the Market" / Enterprise) tier and provisioned through Skimmer's sales team rather than self-service signup. Authentication is via a per-account skimmer-api-key request header, and the API is rate limited to 500 requests per minute per key.

Skimmer publishes 9 API contracts indexed on the APIs.io network, including Bodies of Water API, Customers API, Invoices API, and 6 more. Tagged areas include Pool Service, Field Service Management, Pool Maintenance, Scheduling, and Routes.

Skimmer’s developer surface includes engineering blog, authentication, documentation, API reference, signup flow, and 8 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/.

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
Field Service, Home Services and Trades	undeclared	-	-	-

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.
