DB Schenker
DB Schenker (Schenker AG, headquartered in Essen, Germany) is one of the world's largest freight forwarders and contract logistics providers, moving air, ocean, land and rail freight and running warehousing for shippers across roughly 1,850 locations. As a forwarder it sits in the intermediation layer of the supply chain — between the shipper who owns the cargo and the carriers, terminals and customs authorities who move and clear it — buying capacity it does not own and reselling visibility it did not have to publish. Its API posture is honestly a customer-contract posture, not a public developer posture. Deutsche Bahn sold DB Schenker to DSV A/S, completing 30 April 2025, and as of this profile www.dbschenker.com 301-redirects to dsv.com while the global developer portal at api-portal.dbschenker.com answers HTTP 410 Gone. The one DB Schenker-branded machine-readable API surface still live is the Nordic parcel "Partner services API" at parcelservices-se.dbschenker.com/Apipartner, which publishes four Swagger 2.0 documents openly but returns 401 on every operation without HTTP Basic credentials issued against a signed Swedish transport agreement. Its EDI endpoints are proprietary JSON, not EDIFACT or X12, and no DCSA, IATA ONE Record, GS1 EPCIS or WCO Data Model conformant contract was found on any reachable host.
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 DB Schenker the way a machine reads it — 4 machine-readable artifacts across 4 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 — DB Schenker scores 19.2/100 (emerging), with a separate agent-readiness read of 16/100 (agent aware). 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 DB Schenker
Each block below is one kind of artifact we hold for DB Schenker. 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 4
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.

This is an independent, third-party profile of DB Schenker, 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.
