ASTM International
ASTM International is one of the world's largest voluntary standards development organizations, founded in 1898. ASTM publishes more than 13,000 globally recognized consensus standards across 150+ technical committees and 2,100+ subcommittees, developed by 30,000+ volunteer members from 140+ countries. ASTM standards span ferrous and nonferrous metals, cement and concrete, petroleum, plastics, textiles, additive manufacturing, medical devices, consumer products, unmanned aircraft, artificial intelligence in manufacturing, and dozens of other domains. Standards are delivered through the ASTM Compass platform, ASTM Digital Library, ASTM SpecBuilder, and through publisher and reseller channels. ASTM does not publish a public REST API for its catalog; integration with Compass is via SAML SSO, Shibboleth, OpenAthens, and IP authentication.
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 ASTM International the way a machine reads it — 35 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 — ASTM International scores 17.4/100 (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.
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.

How we profile ASTM International
Each block below is one kind of artifact we hold for ASTM International. 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 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.
Individual APIs this provider publishes, each with its own machine-readable definition.

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.

Governance rulesets we run against this provider's specs — the automated checks behind parts of the score. Profiling them makes the quality bar explicit and re-runnable, not a matter of opinion.

SPECTRALJSON 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.

JSON Structure 2
JSON Structure captures the data shapes in a form built for tooling — a complement to JSON Schema that keeps the model machine-legible.

Real request and response payloads are what turn a spec from abstract into obvious — and they're one of the twelve things an agent needs to call an API correctly on the first try.

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.

What developers build with this provider.
Procurement and Specification
Engineers and procurement teams cite ASTM designations (for example ASTM A36 structural steel or ASTM C150 portland cement) in purchasing contracts to define acceptance criteria.
Regulatory Compliance
Government agencies and regulators incorporate ASTM standards by reference into building codes, safety regulations, and product conformity requirements.
Laboratory Test Methods
Testing laboratories run ASTM Test Method standards to produce legally defensible measurements of material properties and product performance.
Standards Surveillance
Compliance teams subscribe to ASTM Compass change alerts to track new editions, withdrawals, and redlined revisions of standards they depend on.
Additive Manufacturing Qualification
F42 standards (additive manufacturing) and the ASTM AM Center of Excellence provide qualification frameworks for aerospace, medical, and defense AM applications.
Cannabis Industry Standards
Committee D37 (Cannabis) provides standards for quality, testing, and product specifications adopted by cannabis regulators in the US, Canada, and other jurisdictions.
Integrations 6

This is an independent, third-party profile of ASTM International, 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.
