1Kosmos

1Kosmos is a digital identity company whose BlockID platform combines identity proofing, document and biometric verification, and passwordless / FIDO2 authentication into a single tenant-scoped platform used across workforce, customer and citizen identity. The platform is delivered as a REST API surface (identity verification sessions, identity assurance level lookup, one-time passcodes, user management, access codes, W3C Verifiable Credentials and Verifiable Presentations, IAL2 identity-proofing workflows and reporting/metrics) plus first-party helper SDKs for NodeJS, Java, PHP, .NET, .NET Core and Go, and native Android/iOS mobile SDKs. 1Kosmos is Kantara-approved as a full-service credential service provider conformant with NIST SP 800-63-3 at IAL2/AAL2, is FIDO2 certified, holds SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001, and holds a FedRAMP High authorization.

Real signal across most facets with visible, nameable gaps — the contract exists but is thin, or the portal is good while governance and commercial terms are absent.

Kin Score

API Evangelist profiles 1Kosmos the way a machine reads it — 27 machine-readable artifacts across 10 APIs, pulled from the provider's own public surface and indexed so a developer, an analyst, or an AI agent can evaluate it against every other provider on the network.

Every provider in the network is reduced to the same set of machine-readable artifacts — OpenAPI contracts, event specifications, GraphQL schemas, runnable collections, pricing and rate-limit signals, security posture, OAuth scopes, and the agent surfaces (MCP servers and skills) that let software drive the API on its own. We profile them because the interface is the part of a company you can actually inspect: it is a truer signal of what a provider does than any marketing page. From those artifacts we compute the Kin Score — 1Kosmos scores 54.6/100 (developing), with a separate agent-readiness read of 50/100 (agent ready). The full breakdown is below, followed by every artifact we hold — each card links through to its machine-readable definition on apis.io.

Kin Score

This is the API Evangelist rating — a single, repeatable read computed from the artifacts on this page. Green fill is points earned; the red track is points possible, so every bar shows earned-versus-possible at a glance.

How we profile 1Kosmos

Each block below is one kind of artifact we hold for 1Kosmos. For each we say what it is and why it earns a place in the profile, then list every one we've indexed — capped at two rows, scroll within the panel for the rest.

APIs 10

Each API is captured as its own OpenAPI definition — every operation, parameter, and response. This is the single most useful machine-readable description of what an API does, and it's what lets us score, lint, mock, and generate against it without asking the provider for anything.

Individual APIs this provider publishes, each with its own machine-readable definition.

1Kosmos Access Code API

The Access Code API from 1Kosmos — 2 operation(s) for access code.

1Kosmos IAL API

The IAL API from 1Kosmos — 1 operation(s) for ial.

1Kosmos IAL2 API

The IAL2 API from 1Kosmos — 2 operation(s) for ial2.

1Kosmos ID Verification API

The ID Verification API from 1Kosmos — 2 operation(s) for id verification.

1Kosmos OTP API

The OTP API from 1Kosmos — 3 operation(s) for otp.

1Kosmos Reports API

The Reports API from 1Kosmos — 7 operation(s) for reports.

1Kosmos Set up API

The Set up API from 1Kosmos — 2 operation(s) for set up.

1Kosmos User Management API

The User Management API from 1Kosmos — 3 operation(s) for user management.

1Kosmos Verifiable Credentials API

The Verifiable Credentials API from 1Kosmos — 5 operation(s) for verifiable credentials.

1Kosmos Workflow API API

The Workflow API API from 1Kosmos — 2 operation(s) for workflow api.

Open Collections 11

Open, tool-agnostic collections carry the same runnable value as Postman without locking you to one client — the portable, forkable form of the same exercise.

MCP Servers 1

Model Context Protocol servers expose these APIs directly to AI agents. We profile them because agent-native access is the fastest-growing way this provider's capabilities actually get used.

Event Specifications 1

Not every API is request/response. AsyncAPI describes the event-driven and streaming side — the webhooks and channels — so the asynchronous half of the interface is documented the same way the synchronous half is.

AsyncAPI definitions for this provider's event-driven and streaming APIs.

Security Posture 2

Authentication, domain security, vulnerability disclosure, and trust-center signals — the evidence that a provider takes security seriously enough to document it. We profile it because you can't govern what you can't see.

Scopes 1

OAuth scopes are the vocabulary of least-privilege access. Profiling them shows exactly what an integration — or an agent acting on a user's behalf — is allowed to do.

Agentic Access 1

An x-agentic-access contract marks which operations are safe for an agent to run on its own and which need a human in the loop. It is the difference between an API an agent can use and one it can use safely.

Where this information came from

This is an independent, third-party profile of 1Kosmos, published by API Evangelist. We do not operate, host, resell, or support these APIs, and we are not affiliated with or endorsed by the company unless stated above. Everything here is built from publicly available information — the company's own site, developer portal, documentation, public repositories, and the specifications it publishes for public use. Nothing is obtained by breaching a system, defeating an access control, or using credentials.

The Kin Score and Agent Readiness rating are independently calculated assessments of a company's public API artifacts, scored against a published rubric. They are not certifications, endorsements, security assessments, or audits.

Corrections, re-scores, and removal are free — no partnership or purchase required, and you do not need to justify the request. A removed company is recorded as unrated, never scored zero for having asked. Acknowledgement within one business day; removal within two.
