Bump
Bump Technologies was a Mountain View, California mobile software company (2008-2014) behind Bump, an iOS and Android app that let two people exchange contacts, photos and files by physically bumping their phones together. Bump servers correlated accelerometer, location and network signals from two handsets to match the pair, then brokered the transfer. The company published a first-party Bump API and iOS/Android SDKs so third-party apps could embed the same proximity-matching handshake. Backed by Y Combinator, Sequoia Capital and a $16M Series B led by Andreessen Horowitz in January 2011, Bump was acquired by Google in September 2013 and both the app and its developer API were discontinued on January 31, 2014. The company's bu.mp domain still serves its shutdown notice and the archived SDK repositories remain public under the bumptech GitHub organization; there is no live API surface.
API Evangelist profiles Bump the way a machine reads it — 1 machine-readable artifact, 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. The full breakdown is below, followed by every artifact we hold — each card links through to its machine-readable definition on apis.io.
How we profile Bump
Each block below is one kind of artifact we hold for Bump. 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.
Security Posture 1
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.

The organization behind the API
← All providers · Data indexed from github.com/api-evangelist/bump · machine-readable index on apis.io
This is an independent, third-party profile of Bump, 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.
