Bass Associates
Bass Associates is an early- and growth-stage venture capital firm historically based at 435 Tasso Street, Palo Alto, California, and appears on the Battery Ventures "list of all companies" as an exited entry. Public investor databases record roughly 32 investments and 10 exits alongside co-investors such as Accel Partners, Kleiner Perkins and CRV, with its last recorded investment (Teloquent, growth equity) in January 2002 and its last recorded exit in December 2003. The 2026 enrichment pass found no operating website, no developer portal, no documentation and no API surface of any kind: the firm appears dormant and is not an API provider. It was surfaced into the API Evangelist network by the VC-portfolio crawl as a Battery Ventures portfolio lead, but the underlying entity is itself an investor rather than an operating software company.
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.
Bass Associates 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 — Bass Associates 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.

Bass Associates 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.
