The GEO Group

The GEO Group, Inc. (NYSE: GEO) is a publicly traded private corrections and community supervision company headquartered in Boca Raton, Florida. Founded in 1984 as Wackenhut Corrections Corporation and rebranded in 2004, it is the largest private prison operator in the United States and a primary contractor to U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), the U.S. Marshals Service, the Federal Bureau of Prisons, and numerous state departments of corrections. As of 2024 the company owned or managed approximately 80,000 beds across roughly 99 facilities and reported $2.424 billion in revenue. Its wholly owned subsidiary BI Incorporated operates the federal Intensive Supervision Appearance Program (ISAP) and builds the ankle monitors, GPS trackers, voice-verification systems and SmartLINK smartphone app used to monitor people in immigration proceedings and community supervision. GEO Group publishes no public developer API and has no GitHub presence; the only "platform" surfaces it exposes are customer-facing operational systems (BI TotalAccess for officers, BI SmartLINK for supervised individuals) used inside its own contracts. This repository documents the corporate footprint, the technology subsidiary, and the public-record controversies surrounding the firm under the second Trump administration's 2025+ ICE detention expansion, for purposes of the API Evangelist network's coverage of API absence in sensitive sectors.

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

API Evangelist profiles The GEO Group the way a machine reads it — 2 machine-readable artifacts across 1 API, 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 — The GEO Group scores 8.4/100 (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.

How we profile The GEO Group

Each block below is one kind of artifact we hold for The GEO Group. 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 1

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.

BI Incorporated

BI Incorporated, acquired by GEO Group in 2011, is the technology subsidiary that builds and operates the electronic monitoring stack used across community supervision and ICE's...

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.
