Alcoa
Alcoa Corporation is a global industry leader in bauxite, alumina, and aluminum production. Founded in 1888, Alcoa operates mines, refineries, and smelters across Australia, Brazil, Canada, Iceland, Norway, Saudi Arabia, and the United States. The company is a Fortune 500 member and one of the world's largest aluminum producers, supplying lightweight, high-strength materials to automotive, aerospace, packaging, construction, and industrial markets. Alcoa is committed to sustainability through low-carbon aluminum production, responsible bauxite mining, and advancing aluminum recycling.
More than an index entry, but the surface is still mostly links rather than artifacts — the cohort most likely to move a full band from modest, well-targeted work.
API Evangelist profiles Alcoa the way a machine reads it — 19 machine-readable artifacts, 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 — Alcoa scores 12.0/100 (emerging), 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
Alcoa is a bauxite, alumina and aluminum producer with no developer program: the corporate site 404s /openapi.json, /llms.txt and every /.well-known/ path, developer.alcoa.com and apis.alcoa.com do not resolve, and the one live API host, api.alcoa.com, is an internal Azure APIM gateway that answers 401 "Access denied due to missing subscription key" on its only routed path and 404s every discovery path.
This is an honest zero, not a gap in our research. Alcoa 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.

This is an independent, third-party profile of Alcoa, 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.
