Cedarai

Cedar AI builds ARMS (Automated Rail Management System), a cloud-native, AI-powered transportation management platform for railroads, industrial shippers, transload and intermodal terminals, and fleet/car owners. The ARMS External API exposes REST and gRPC services for railcar inventory and history, waybills and bills of lading, work orders and train movements, switching and class lists, charges, shipper invoices and quotes, truck load tenders, network structure, and threaded notes (Linda) with AI summaries — plus Ed25519-signed webhooks for real-time operational events, across US (cedarai.com) and EU (cedarai.se) regions. Backed by Felicis.

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 Cedarai the way a machine reads it — 13 machine-readable artifacts across 9 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 — Cedarai scores 46.0/100 (developing), with a separate agent-readiness read of 57/100 (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 Cedarai

Each block below is one kind of artifact we hold for Cedarai. 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 9

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.

Cedarai ChargeService API

The ChargeService API from Cedarai — 3 operation(s) for chargeservice.

Cedarai Equipment History API

The Equipment History API from Cedarai — 1 operation(s) for equipment history.

Cedarai Ims API

The Ims API from Cedarai — 16 operation(s) for ims.

Cedarai InvoicesService API

The InvoicesService API from Cedarai — 3 operation(s) for invoicesservice.

Cedarai LindaService API

The LindaService API from Cedarai — 9 operation(s) for lindaservice.

Cedarai NetworkStructureService API

The NetworkStructureService API from Cedarai — 1 operation(s) for networkstructureservice.

Cedarai QuotesService API

Cedarai WorkOrderService API

The WorkOrderService API from Cedarai — 10 operation(s) for workorderservice.

MCP Servers 1

Model Context Protocol servers expose these APIs directly to AI agents. We profile them because agent-native access is the fastest-growing way this provider's capabilities actually get used.

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 2

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.
