Ziff Davis Enterprise

Ziff Davis (Nasdaq: ZD) is a vertically focused digital media and internet company whose portfolio includes leading brands across technology, entertainment, shopping, health, cybersecurity, and marketing technology. Its brands include PCMag, Mashable, IGN, Lifehacker, RetailMeNot, Spiceworks, Everyday Health, IPVanish, Ookla (Speedtest), FullContact, and iContact, among others. The company operates a portfolio of advertising, subscription, and performance-marketing businesses rather than a single first-party public API product. This API Evangelist profile was surfaced as an Insight Partners portfolio lead; a public web crawl of the corporate site found an active investor-relations, newsroom, brands, privacy, and terms surface but no developer portal, API reference, or published API specification at the corporate (ziffdavis.com) level. A second enrichment pass on 2026-08-13 ran full contract discovery against www.ziffdavis.com — OpenAPI, Swagger, GraphQL, MCP, llms.txt and every /.well-known/ path returned 404, and the WordPress REST root returned 401 — confirming the absence, while surfacing three real corporate programs: a Bugcrowd-hosted Responsible Vulnerability Disclosure Program, a published data-protection compliance program (Data Privacy Framework self-certification for 32 named group entities, GDPR DPAs, CCPA request metrics, EU DSA statement, NIST SP 800-88 vendor security exhibit), and five first-party PHP packages in the ziffdavis Packagist namespace — none of which is an API client library. Ziff Davis brands with their own API surfaces are profiled as separate entries.

Ziff Davis Enterprise is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Digital Media, Internet, Publishing, and Cybersecurity.

Ziff Davis Enterprise’s developer surface includes engineering blog, support, and 12 more developer resources.

  detail: Ziff Davis, Inc. is the publicly traded parent of a portfolio of consumer and B2B media brands and ships no API
    of its own — the corporate WordPress site returns 404 for /openapi.json, /graphql, /mcp, /llms.txt and every /.well-known/
    path, and its only machine surface, the WordPress REST root at /wp-json/, answers 401 to anonymous callers.
