Agco

AGCO is a global manufacturer of agricultural machinery and precision-ag technology — Fendt, Massey Ferguson, Valtra, Challenger, GSI and PTx. Its one publicly reachable machine-readable contract is the AGCO Technical Support (ATS) API at secure.agco-ats.com: a Swagger 2.0 document with 285 operations across 55 tags, served with a public Swagger UI, covering dealer records, authorization codes and vouchers, software package distribution to Electronic Diagnostic Tool (EDT) installations, a content submission and release pipeline, translation workflow, and AGCO Power aftermarket services. AGCO also publishes three first-party JSON:API profiles standardising filtering, search and change events. The AgCommand telematics API announced in 2015 for third-party developers has no reachable public documentation: the developer portal at developer.agcocorp.com no longer publishes and api.agcocorp.com is an API Gateway that authenticates every path.

agent ready

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 Agco the way a machine reads it — 40 machine-readable artifacts across 2 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 — Agco scores 45.8/100 (developing), with a separate agent-readiness read of 32/100 (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. 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 Agco

Each block below is one kind of artifact we hold for Agco. 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 4

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.

agco Locations API

Access machine location and tracking data.

agco Machines API

Access machine information and status.

agco Telemetry API

Retrieve machine telemetry and sensor data.

AGCO ATS API

The AGCO Technical Support (ATS) API behind AGCO's Electronic Diagnostic Tool (EDT) and dealer software distribution platform. Publishes 285 operations across 55 tags covering a...

Open Collections 5

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.

Open, tool-agnostic API collections (OpenAPI-derived and Bruno).

Pricing Plans 1

Pricing is part of the interface. Machine-readable plans tell you what a tier costs and includes before you commit — one of the things the Kin Score reads for access clarity — renamed from commercial clarity in rubric 0.12, because a free statutory interface has access terms and no commercial ones.

Published pricing tiers and plan structures.

Rate Limits 1

Rate limits are the difference between a demo that works and a production integration that doesn't fall over. Publishing them is an operational-transparency signal — and a hard requirement for any agent that plans its own throughput.

Documented rate limits and quota policies.

FinOps 1

Cost, billing, and metering signals let a buyer model the financial operations of an API before it's live. We profile them for the same reason we profile pricing: the money is part of the contract.

Features 5

Notable capabilities this provider offers.

Machine Telematics

Real-time access to machine performance data including engine speed, load, fuel consumption, and fault codes from AGCO Connect-ready equipment.

Fleet Location Tracking

GPS-based machine location history enabling field work tracking and fleet management dashboards.

Diagnostic Fault Codes

Remote access to machine diagnostic codes enabling proactive maintenance and reducing downtime.

JSON API Profiles

Standardized filtering, search, and change event profiles for consistent API behavior across all resources.

Multi-Brand Coverage

Single API access to data from Fendt, Massey Ferguson, Challenger, and Valtra agricultural equipment.

Semantic Vocabularies 1

JSON-LD contexts give the data shared meaning across APIs. We profile them because semantics are what let a machine reconcile 'customer' here with 'customer' somewhere else.

JSON Schema 3

Standalone JSON Schema definitions describe the data models behind the API. We profile them so the shapes are validatable on their own — useful long after a single request is forgotten.

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 Agco, 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.
