description: TVbeat is a London-based, Techstars-backed advertising technology company whose platform unifies linear television
  and streaming (CTV) advertising operations into a single system. It lets media owners and buyers forecast, plan, transact,
  optimize, and measure campaigns across audiences, yield, and operations, supporting multi-currency transacting (ratings,
  spots, impressions, and outcomes) and modern buying models — Direct, Programmatic, Self-Serve, and AI-driven — across both
  traditional linear spots and streaming inventory. TVbeat publishes a complete first-party API reference for its analytics
  API — three query endpoints signed with a custom TVBEAT-HMAC-SHA256 scheme, with two draft-04 JSON Schemas and example responses
  — in its own GitHub organization at github.com/tvbeat/public, but the API root it names (api.tvbeat.com) no longer resolves
  in public DNS and the document has not been modified since 2017. TVbeat ships no OpenAPI, SDK, CLI, MCP server or agent
  card, and its current documentation portal at docs.tvbeat.com is credential-gated.

  result: First-party API reference found in the provider's own GitHub organization (github.com/tvbeat/public/docs/api.md,
    last modified 2017-05-23) carrying two draft-04 JSON Schemas and three example responses — saved to json-schema/ and examples/.
    The API root it documents, https://api.tvbeat.com, is NXDOMAIN on the system resolver, 1.1.1.1 and 8.8.8.8, so no apis[]
    entry is claimed. The current product docs at docs.tvbeat.com answer every path with a SnazzyDocs page titled "Login".
    No OpenAPI, GraphQL, AsyncAPI, MCP server or agent card exists on any host.
