Altra Energy Technologies

Altra Energy Technologies was a Houston, Texas software company founded in 1996 by Williams and PanEnergy (later Duke Energy) that built neutral online trading platforms for the energy sector. Its flagship marketplace, Altrade, provided a real-time, anonymous electronic exchange for trading natural gas, crude oil, natural gas liquids, and power, backed by energy transaction management software spanning deal capture, portfolio monitoring, physical scheduling, and back-office reconciliation and settlement. At its peak the platform served more than 6,000 users worldwide. The company raised roughly $55.5M from investors including Battery Ventures, Austin Ventures, BP, Candescent Partners, and Capital Resource Partners. It ceased to exist as an independent company around 2002: its software operations were acquired by Caminus Corporation and its online marketplace by ChemConnect (recorded elsewhere as Supply Chain Connect). No live developer portal, API, or public developer surface exists for this defunct company.

human only

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.

Kin Score

Altra Energy Technologies 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 — Altra Energy Technologies 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.

Altra Energy Technologies 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.
