Defense in North America

71 defense providers across North America, publishing 13 APIs.

71 providers 13 published APIs 19 indexed documents

Defense across North America — 71 providers on the APIs.io network sit in both cohorts, and between them they publish 13 indexed APIs.

8 of the 71 publish at least one machine-readable API; 63 publish nothing indexed at all. That split is the first thing worth reading here — a vertical can be well represented in a market and still have almost no programmable surface.

By Kin Score band: 53 minimal, 14 emerging, and 4 thin.

Leading by rating: PreVeil, Urban Sky, Teledyne Technologies, Electra.aero, General Dynamics, Neros, and 65 more.

Region membership is derived from three explicit signals — a provider tag, a provider-name pattern, or a stated headquarters in the provider’s own description. This is a map of stated headquarters, not of markets served.

This page is the intersection of two independently computed cohorts: North America and Defense. A provider appears here only when it is already a member of both. North America membership is matched on tag, name pattern, stated HQ, so this is a floor rather than a census — coverage gaps show up here as small numbers, not as absent pages.

Every region here is available over the APIs.io API and to AI agents over MCP.
