Cropio
Cropio was an independent Eastern European farm management and precision agriculture platform (fields, satellite/NDVI imagery, weather, scouting, machinery telematics, and yield) founded in 2013. Syngenta acquired Cropio in September 2019 and folded it into its Cropwise digital agriculture portfolio; the product now operates as Cropwise Operations, and cropio.com redirects to operations.cropwise.com. The original Cropio API v3 was not shut down - it continues to run as the documented Cropwise Operations Platform API v3, reachable at operations.cropwise.com/api/v3 (the legacy cropio.com/api/v3 host has redirected there since April 1, 2022). It is a per-account HTTP JSON REST API (not a self-serve developer marketplace) - a Cropwise Operations login is required to obtain a USER_API_TOKEN, and there is no published self-signup API key flow or API-specific price list. Syngenta separately launched a broader "Cropwise Open Platform" for partners in 2025, which is a distinct, newer developer program outside the scope of this entry.
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.
API Evangelist profiles Cropio the way a machine reads it — 11 machine-readable artifacts across 7 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 — Cropio scores 24.4/100 (emerging), with a separate agent-readiness read of 7/100 (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.
How we profile Cropio
Each block below is one kind of artifact we hold for Cropio. 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 7
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.

Pricing Plans 1
Pricing is part of the interface. Machine-readable plans tell you what a tier costs and includes before you commit — one of the six things the Kin Score reads for commercial clarity.
Published pricing tiers and plan structures.

PLANSRate Limits 1
Rate limits are the difference between a demo that works and a production integration that doesn't fall over. Publishing them is an operational-transparency signal — and a hard requirement for any agent that plans its own throughput.
Documented rate limits and quota policies.

Cost, billing, and metering signals let a buyer model the financial operations of an API before it's live. We profile them for the same reason we profile pricing: the money is part of the contract.

FINOPSSecurity 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.
