ACT-ion
ACT-ion Battery Technologies, Inc. is an advanced battery materials company founded in Dallas, Texas and spun out of Hunt Energy Enterprises, now running an advanced cathode pilot plant in Carrollton, Texas. It manufactures surface-engineered single-crystal cathode active materials (CAM) for lithium-ion batteries across LFP, LMFP, NMC and lithium-manganese-rich chemistries, marketed as ACT-ion LXP+, using a chemistry-agnostic high-throughput continuous synthesis process that deposits a protective, conductive shell during particle growth to cut CAM cost and plant footprint. It raised a $7.5M pre-Series A led by BASF Venture Capital, extended to $11.5M, won a 2024 R&D 100 Award, and named Mark McGough CEO in August 2026. ACT-ion is a materials manufacturer, not a software vendor: it publishes no API, developer portal, SDK or machine-readable contract.
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.
API Evangelist profiles ACT-ion the way a machine reads it — 1 machine-readable artifact, 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 — ACT-ion scores 3.8/100 (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.
Why this profile is thin
ACT-ion Battery Technologies manufactures single-crystal cathode active material powder for lithium-ion cells at a pilot plant in Carrollton, Texas — the product is a physical material, not software — and act-ion.com is a six-page Squarespace marketing site (Home, About, Technology, News, Careers, plus a mailto contact anchor) with no /developers, no /api, no machine-readable contract, and no api., docs., developer., app. or portal. subdomain in DNS.
This is an honest zero, not a gap in our research. ACT-ion does not appear to expose an API, so there is nothing here for us to index and nothing for them to fix.

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. Every facet and dimension name is a link: it opens that measurement's page on APIs.io, where the rating runs across the whole catalog — the exact checks that feed it, how every profiled provider distributes on it, and who is at the top of it.

How we profile ACT-ion
Each block below is one kind of artifact we hold for ACT-ion. 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.
Security Posture 1
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.

The organization behind the API
← All providers · Data indexed from github.com/api-evangelist/act-ion · machine-readable index on apis.io
This is an independent, third-party profile of ACT-ion, 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.
