Americold Realty Trust
Americold Realty Trust is a global leader in temperature-controlled logistics, real estate, and value-added services, owning and operating one of the largest networks of cold storage warehouses in the world. The company serves food producers, retailers, and distributors with integrated logistics solutions, offering technology platforms such as i-3PL for customer-facing inventory and order visibility and EDI for system-to-system supply chain integration. While Americold provides customer-facing technology and integration capabilities, it does not currently publish a public developer-facing API portal with open OpenAPI documentation; integrations are established project-by-project through the Americold service desk and EDI onboarding process.
Limited machine-readable signal and partial portal coverage — documentation a human can read, but little a machine or agent can consume without scraping.
API Evangelist profiles Americold Realty Trust the way a machine reads it — 31 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 — Americold Realty Trust scores 35.2/100 (thin), 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.

APIs 2
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.

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.
