Drafted

Drafted is a network-recruiting and employee-referral platform, founded in 2015 and headquartered in Boston, Massachusetts, and surfaced in the API Evangelist network as a Y Combinator portfolio company. The product helps companies tap their collective network to source, qualify, and hire talent: a Drafted Slackbot delivers weekly intelligent referral recommendations and lets teams submit referrals straight into their ATS from Slack, while NLP, machine learning, and a graph database of the company network extend matching beyond first-degree employee connections to surface higher-quality referrals. Drafted has been used by thousands of companies ranging from startups to large enterprises. This profile was seeded from a VC-portfolio lead; at enrichment time the public web surface (drafted.us) was not serving a live product site and no public API, developer documentation, or specification could be found.

human only

Index entry only — little beyond a description and a link, and nothing machine-readable enough for an agent to act on without a human reading the site first.

Kin Score

Drafted is tracked in the API Evangelist network. This page is the human-readable profile that sits on top of the machine-readable index we maintain at apis.io.

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 — Drafted scores 6.8/100 (minimal), 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.

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.

The organization behind the API

Drafted is in the network as a tracked entity. We haven't yet indexed a public API surface for it — when one is published, the artifacts, score, and agent-readiness read will appear here automatically. The source repository is where that profile is built.
