Trail

Trail is a digital checklist and work management platform for hospitality and leisure teams, now part of The Access Group (originally Trailsuite Ltd, a Seedcamp portfolio company). Trail digitises daily operations — food safety checks, brand standards, compliance logs and task management — across sites, and publishes a set of API-key-secured public APIs (Task Reports, Task Instances, Task Templates, Sites, Areas, Tags, Scores) plus an OAuth2-secured Evo API, documented with OpenAPI at web.trailapp.com/api-docs.

Trail publishes 8 APIs on the APIs.io network, including Areas API, Scores API, Sites API, and 5 more. Tagged areas include Company, Hospitality, Checklists, Task Management, and Compliance.

Trail’s developer surface includes authentication, documentation, API reference, getting-started guide, support, engineering blog, pricing, and 23 more developer resources.

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.

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/trail: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts.
