Catchpoint

Catchpoint is a leading Internet Performance Monitoring (IPM) company. Its platform combines the largest independent global observability network (thousands of synthetic agents across 100+ countries plus BGP peers) with synthetic monitoring, real user monitoring (RUM), BGP monitoring, endpoint/workforce monitoring, tracing, and Internet Sonar to give teams end-to-end visibility across the entire Internet Stack — networks, DNS, CDN, SASE, and third-party services — from the end-user perspective. Catchpoint exposes a REST API v2 (bearer API key, JSON) for managing synthetic tests, monitoring nodes and node groups, products/folders, alerts, contacts, SLOs, insights, and usage reporting, plus alert/test-data/BGP webhooks and an official Terraform provider. Catchpoint is a portfolio company of Sapphire Ventures.

Real signal across most facets with visible, nameable gaps — the contract exists but is thin, or the portal is good while governance and commercial terms are absent.

Kin Score

API Evangelist profiles Catchpoint the way a machine reads it — 36 machine-readable artifacts across 31 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 — Catchpoint scores 54.7/100 (developing), with a separate agent-readiness read of 60/100 (agent ready). 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 Catchpoint

Each block below is one kind of artifact we hold for Catchpoint. 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 31

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.

Event Specifications 1

Not every API is request/response. AsyncAPI describes the event-driven and streaming side — the webhooks and channels — so the asynchronous half of the interface is documented the same way the synchronous half is.

AsyncAPI definitions for this provider's event-driven and streaming APIs.

Security Posture 3

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.
