Sequoia Capital
Sequoia Capital is one of the world's leading venture capital firms, founded by Don Valentine in 1972 and headquartered at 2800 Sand Hill Road in Menlo Park, California. Sequoia partners with founders from idea to IPO and beyond, investing across seed, early, and growth stages, and has backed transformative companies including Apple, Google, Oracle, Cisco, NVIDIA, PayPal, YouTube, Airbnb, Stripe, WhatsApp, Instagram, DoorDash, Snowflake, and Reddit. Its stated mission is to "help the daring build legendary companies," with a current focus on artificial intelligence and AI agents, autonomous systems, fintech, developer tools and infrastructure, healthcare, and consumer technology. Following its 2024 restructuring, Sequoia operates primarily across the US and Europe, while its former India/SEA and China arms became the independent firms Peak XV Partners and HongShan.

Cohort brief
Auto-generatedThe 101 portfolio companies with APIs in the catalog, backed by Sequoia Capital, scored on the Kin Score. Every figure below is computed from the catalog — nothing here is written.
| Facet | This cohort | Catalog | Difference | Scored |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Contract Quality | 40.2 | 17.6 | +22.6 | 101 |
| Operational Transparency | 36.1 | 13.6 | +22.5 | 101 |
| Developer Ergonomics | 43.2 | 23.1 | +20.1 | 101 |
| Access Clarity | 45.6 | 26.4 | +19.2 | 101 |
| Contract Governance | 14.3 | 6.3 | +8 | 101 |
| Discoverability | 64.9 | 58.2 | +6.7 | 101 |
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) | 38% | 15% | +23 |
| MCP server (first-party) | 33% | 12% | +21 |
| Agent Skills | 0% | 0% | 0 |
| OAuth scopes | 33% | 11% | +22 |
| Security | 100% | 98% | +2 |
| Arazzo workflows | 20% | 2% | +18 |
| Governance rules | 49% | 13% | +36 |
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.
Coverage caveat. 53 of 101 scored members had under half their catalog-attributable points satisfied at all (catalog_earned / catalog_max < 0.5). They are INCLUDED in the mean above. A large share here means the cohort mean is partly a measurement of how far our enrichment reached, not only of how these providers publish.Generated from the catalog build of 3 October 2026, across 28834 providers, using the same computation served by the APIs.io cohort API. Briefs are published for rosters of 5 or more scored providers; below that a distribution is not meaningful.
