Cognoa

Cognoa is a pediatric behavioral health company in Palo Alto, California building digital diagnostics and therapeutics for early childhood development, starting with autism. Its flagship product, Canvas Dx, is an FDA-authorized Software as a Medical Device that aids clinicians in diagnosing or ruling out autism spectrum disorder in children aged 18 to 72 months, combining a caregiver questionnaire, short home videos scored by credentialed human video analysts, and a healthcare-provider questionnaire into a machine-learning classifier that returns Positive, Negative, or Indeterminate. Canvas Dx is delivered as an iOS/Android caregiver app plus a prescriber web portal at app.cognoa.com; Cognoa ships no public developer API, SDK, or webhook surface.

human only

More than an index entry, but the surface is still mostly links rather than artifacts — the cohort most likely to move a full band from modest, well-targeted work.

Kin Score

API Evangelist profiles Cognoa 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. From those artifacts we compute the Kin Score — Cognoa scores 18.1/100 (emerging), 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.

No API surface

Why this profile is thin

Cognoa ships Canvas Dx only as an end-user medical device — a caregiver iOS/Android app and a prescriber web portal at app.cognoa.com — with no developer portal, no published spec and no SDK; the portal is a Rails app that answers every /.well-known/*, /openapi.json, /graphql and /mcp probe with its "Oops! We couldn't locate your page!" not-found shell (HTML 200 or JSON 404), so none of those 200s is a real discovery document.

This is an honest zero, not a gap in our research. Cognoa does not appear to expose an API, so there is nothing here for us to index and nothing for them to fix.

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 Cognoa

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

Where this information came from

This is an independent, third-party profile of Cognoa, 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.
