Starlink
Starlink is the low-Earth-orbit satellite internet constellation operated by SpaceX from Hawthorne, California, delivering broadband and non-terrestrial connectivity to residential, business, maritime, aviation, and government customers in the United States and roughly a hundred other markets. In the telecom value chain Starlink is an access-network operator that sells connectivity directly to end customers and wholesales capacity to airlines, shipping lines, and mobile network operators, rather than a CPaaS aggregator or a GSMA-affiliated mobile network operator. Its API posture is unusually open for an access provider and unusually narrow in scope. The Starlink Public API V2 is fully documented in public at starlink.readme.io, its OpenAPI 3.0.4 description is downloadable anonymously from starlink.com with no login, and SpaceX publishes an official gRPC protobuf for the local device API on GitHub. But the API is operational rather than developer-product, covering account, service line, user terminal, router, billing, and telemetry management, and credentials are gated behind an enterprise or business Starlink account whose admin must mint a V2 service account. No CAMARA implementation, no GSMA Open Gateway participation, and no TM Forum Open API conformance was found anywhere in Starlink's published material.
Starlink publishes 16 API contracts indexed on the APIs.io network, including Telemetry Stream API, Account API, Addresses API, and 13 more. Tagged areas include Non-Terrestrial Network, Starlink, Telecommunications, United States, and Satellite.
The Starlink catalog on APIs.io includes 1 event-driven AsyncAPI specification and 1 Spectral governance ruleset.
Starlink’s developer surface includes documentation, getting-started guide, API reference, authentication, changelog, sandbox, developer portal, and 44 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Space and Satellite (operators, earth observation, ground segment) | undeclared | - | - | - |
| Air Traffic and Aviation Data (manned aviation, ATM, airport suppliers) | 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.
Standards implemented 4
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.
