Thumbtack
Thumbtack is a local services marketplace connecting homeowners with local service professionals (cleaning, home improvement, events, wellness, and more). There is no self-serve public API - Thumbtack operates an approval-gated Partner Platform (developers.thumbtack.com) with two documented API surfaces - a Demand API for marketplace integrations (pro search, categories, autocomplete, requests) and a Pro API for supply-side integrations (leads, messages, pro profiles, reviews) - plus low-code embeddable widgets. Access requires Thumbtack to approve a partner and issue OAuth 2.0 credentials; there is no public signup or API key self-service.
Thumbtack publishes 10 API contracts indexed on the APIs.io network, including Authentication API, Autocomplete API, Categories API, and 7 more. Tagged areas include Local Services, Marketplace, Home Services, Leads, and Partner API.
The Thumbtack catalog on APIs.io includes 1 Spectral governance ruleset.
Thumbtack’s developer surface includes authentication, documentation, engineering blog, and 10 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Field Service, Home Services and Trades | standard | 34.5 (thin) | - | - |
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 2
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.
