Tvscientific

tvScientific is a connected-TV (CTV) advertising platform for performance marketers, pairing premium streaming-TV inventory with AI-powered bidding and optimization and outcome-based measurement so brands can run television campaigns against measurable goals like sales, app installs, and site traffic. It positions itself on "premium inventory, AI-powered optimization, and radical transparency," and offers a self-serve buying platform plus an academy and reporting resources for advertisers and agencies. Originally surfaced as a portfolio company of Norwest Venture Partners, it now brands itself "tvScientific by Pinterest" after Pinterest completed its acquisition of the company in February 2026. tvScientific runs a real Campaign Management REST API at api.tvscientific.app — named as a component on its own status page — whose v1 and v2 version roots publicly enumerate 50 resource collections covering campaigns, line items, creatives, audiences, targeting, bid strategies, billing and accounts. It publishes no developer program around it: no portal, no API reference, no OpenAPI or GraphQL contract, no SDK, no CLI, and no MCP or agent surface. Every collection but one is credentialed, both documentation hosts sit behind a customer login, and the machine-readable operational signal is limited to an Atlassian Statuspage API and a first-party Google Tag Manager measurement pixel.

Tvscientific is listed with 1 API on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Advertising, Connected TV, CTV, and Streaming.

Tvscientific’s developer surface includes engineering blog, getting-started guide, support, and 17 more developer resources.

scored 2026-11-06 · rubric v0.27.0
Regulatory Posture applies to this provider. Its tags matched the Horizontal (data, software, accessibility, platform) regime, so Regulatory Posture carries 15 points of the composite. If this regime is wrong for your business, say so on your provider repo — the applicability map is public and we will correct it.
Create-or-Update Ergonomics could not be measured. We hold no machine-readable contract for this provider to read, so there is nothing to measure a write surface against. Excluded rather than scored zero: never-measured and measured-empty are different facts. Publishing an OpenAPI is what makes this facet — and several others — scorable at all.
The six quality facets above are damped to 85 points between them, because the conditional facet above carries the other 15. That is why each facet's contribution is shown against a damped maximum: raising a quality facet moves the composite by 85% of its nominal weight, not 100%. The full arithmetic is at apis.io/rating/.

Agent readiness — checks not met, largest first (exact, from this profile):
  • Machine-Readable Contract +18 pts — api_specs includes an OpenAPI document
  • MCP Server +12 pts — deployment.mode + probe verdict on the mcp/ manifest, not the pointer; an unprobed slug falls back to authorship
  • Agentic Access Contract +10 pts — agentic_access artifact present (x-agentic-access), graded by author
  • Machine-Readable Auth +10 pts — a served openid-configuration/oauth-authorization-server carrying `issuer` (served), else the securitySchemes class in the provider OpenAPIs — bound (mutualTLS, DPoP, Signature) > negotiable (oauth2 authorizationCode/clientCredentials, openIdConnect) > bearer (http bearer, apiKey)
  • Idempotency +9 pts — OpenAPI mutating operations declare an idempotency key — a header, a request-body property, or a named de-duplication token whose own description says so (verified); else common[].type matches /idempoten/i (documented)
  • A2A Agent Card +8 pts — a2a/-a2a.yml manifest, graded on conformance.grade against A2A 1.0.0
11 more unmet checks in the Agent Readiness table above.

Each check links to what satisfies it. Publish the artifact, or tell us where it already lives, and the score moves on the next scoring run.
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 the provider profile at artifacts.apis.io/tvscientific/apis.yml: open an issue on github.com/api-evangelist/tvscientific to ask a question or point us at an artifact you publish.

  description: The REST API behind the tvScientific Campaign Management UI, named by tvScientific's own status page as the
    "Campaign Management API" component running at api.tvscientific.app. Two major versions serve concurrently. The v1 root
    advertises 35 collections spanning advertisers, organizations, tenants, users, campaigns, creatives, creative and static
    display line items, audiences, bid strategies, billing accounts, payment profiles, contracts and assets; the v2 root advertises
    15 narrower campaign-buying collections including campaigns, lineitems, creatives, targeting keys, targeting reach, simplified
    bid strategies, bidder config and a quickstart surface. Both version roots and one collection (terms_and_conditions) are
    readable anonymously; every other collection returns HTTP 403. tvScientific publishes no OpenAPI, no API reference and
    no SDK for it, so the artifacts in this repo are probed rather than harvested.
