Cohort brief
Auto-generatedThe 1063 providers in the APIs.io catalog tagged Open-Source, scored on the Kin Score. Every figure below is computed from the catalog — nothing here is written.
| Facet | This cohort | Catalog | Difference | Scored |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Operational Transparency | 27.4 | 14 | +13.4 | 1063 |
| Developer Ergonomics | 36.4 | 23.4 | +13 | 1063 |

| Discoverability | 64.4 | 61.2 | +3.2 | 1063 |
| Access Clarity | 27.3 | 26.5 | +0.8 | 1063 |
A facet is averaged over the members that carry it, not over the whole cohort — the “Scored” column is that count. Averaging an absent facet as zero would score our own coverage gaps as the providers’ posture.
| Artifact | This cohort | Catalog | Difference |
|---|---|---|---|
| MCP server (any) | 13% | 10% | +3 |
| MCP server (first-party) | 14% | 13% | +1 |

mcp_pct counts any mcp/ artifact including ones API Evangelist derived from the provider OpenAPI; mcp_first_party_pct counts only servers the provider publishes. Prefer the latter.
