42Floors
42Floors was a commercial real estate (CRE) search engine that made it easy to search for office space, coworking, and commercial listings across major U.S. markets. Founded in 2011 and part of Y Combinator's Winter 2012 batch, it was backed by Andreessen Horowitz (a16z) and other investors and grew a nationwide catalog of hundreds of thousands of listings. The company was acquired by flexible-office provider Knotel in July 2018, and later by real estate software company Yardi in 2021, which folded the 42Floors listing service into its CommercialEdge network of marketplaces (CommercialCafe, CommercialSearch, Point2, PropertyShark). 42Floors no longer operates as an independent brand: its 42floors.com domain now redirects to commercialcafe.com, and it exposes no public developer program, API, or documentation. This profile is retained in the API Evangelist network as an a16z portfolio-company lead with no active API surface to enrich.
Index entry only — little beyond a description and a link, and nothing machine-readable enough for an agent to act on without a human reading the site first.
42Floors is tracked in the API Evangelist network. This page is the human-readable profile that sits on top of the machine-readable index we maintain at apis.io.
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 — 42Floors scores 6.8/100 (minimal), with a separate agent-readiness read of 0/100 (human only). 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.
42Floors is in the network as a tracked entity. We haven't yet indexed a public API surface for it — when one is published, the artifacts, score, and agent-readiness read will appear here automatically. The source repository is where that profile is built.
