Binaris
Binaris was a fast, low-latency Function-as-a-Service (FaaS) platform for running production Node.js workloads in the cloud. Founded in 2017 and backed by Lightspeed Venture Partners, its developer surface centered on the `bn` command-line tool and Node.js SDK (published to npm as `binaris` and to Docker Hub as `binaris/bn`), which let developers scaffold, deploy, invoke, and inspect serverless functions in seconds. Authentication was via a Binaris API key (`BINARIS_API_KEY`). The company later explored a "Shift" programming model (`@binaris/shift-fetch-runtime`). The hosted platform at binaris.io / binaris.com is no longer in service, but the first-party client packages and a 42-repository GitHub organization remain publicly available and are captured here.
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.
Binaris 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 — Binaris scores 10.0/100 (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.

Binaris 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.
