uberVU was a social media analytics and monitoring company, backed by Seedcamp, that offered brand-insight dashboards and a metrics API before being acquired by Hootsuite in 2014. The company no longer operates independently - ubervu.com now 301-redirects to blog.hootsuite.com/social-media-analytics/, its former metrics API is retired, and its GitHub organization is dormant. This profile is kept as a historical record of a VC-portfolio company with no current public API surface.
uberVU is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Social-Media, Analytics, Monitoring, and Acquired.
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.
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/ubervu: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts.
