Regulatory Posture applies to this provider. Its tags matched the Education & Research 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.
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/.
Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/. This rating is computed from github.com/api-evangelist/university-of-twente: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts. Want it done for you?

  description: 'OAI-PMH metadata harvesting endpoint documented for UT Research Information, the University of Twente''s Pure-based
    research information system at research.utwente.nl. It is intended to expose research output, profiles, projects and dataset
    metadata for harvesting by discovery and aggregation services. Note: at time of review the public web front-end did not
    serve a working OAI-PMH response (returned an error/500), so access appears restricted or relocated. Listed here on documented
    evidence only; no live endpoint was confirmed.'
