AWS Marketplace

AWS Marketplace is a curated digital catalog from Amazon Web Services that lets customers find, buy, deploy, and manage third-party software, SaaS, containers, machine images (AMIs), data products, and professional services that run on AWS. The AWS Marketplace Catalog API enables approved sellers to programmatically manage their products, change sets, and entities, while buyers can integrate procurement workflows with AWS billing.

agent aware

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.

Kin Score

API Evangelist profiles AWS Marketplace the way a machine reads it — 14 machine-readable artifacts across 8 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 — AWS Marketplace scores 29.2/100 (emerging), with a separate agent-readiness read of 41/100 (agent aware). 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 AWS Marketplace

Each block below is one kind of artifact we hold for AWS Marketplace. 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 8

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.

AWS Marketplace Catalog API

REST API for AWS Marketplace sellers to programmatically view and update their product entities and change sets in the marketplace catalog.

AWS Marketplace Metering Service API

API used by AWS Marketplace sellers of SaaS and container products to report customer usage and entitlements for billing.

AWS Marketplace Entitlement Service API

API for AWS Marketplace sellers to determine the entitlement that a customer has to a paid AWS Marketplace product.

AWS Marketplace Commerce Analytics Service API

API for AWS Marketplace sellers to request and retrieve reports about sales, customer subscriptions, and disbursements.

AWS Marketplace Change Sets API

The Change Sets API from AWS Marketplace — 4 operation(s) for change sets.

AWS Marketplace Entities API

The Entities API from AWS Marketplace — 3 operation(s) for entities.

AWS Marketplace Resource Policies API

The Resource Policies API from AWS Marketplace — 3 operation(s) for resource policies.

AWS Marketplace Tags API

The Tags API from AWS Marketplace — 3 operation(s) for tags.

Open Collections 1

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).

Security Posture 4

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.

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.
