Torbit

Torbit was a web-performance-optimization startup (real-user monitoring and automated front-end optimization) backed by 500 Startups, acquired by Walmart Labs in 2013. The product has long been discontinued; the enrichment pass found no live developer portal, documentation, or API surface. torbit.com no longer serves a site and now resolves to Walmart brand-protection infrastructure (MarkMonitor registrar, UltraDNS nameservers, Proofpoint mail), with both HTTP and HTTPS requests timing out.

Torbit is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Web Performance, Real User Monitoring, Front-End Optimization, and Acquired.
