Gradiant
Gradiant is a global water and wastewater infrastructure company founded in 2013 out of MIT and headquartered in Boston, Massachusetts, that designs, builds and operates end-to-end industrial water systems from intake to discharge. It positions itself as "the Water Layer of the AI Economy", supplying ultrapure water, process water, wastewater recycling, minimal- and zero-liquid-discharge and resource-recovery systems to semiconductor fabs, AI data centers, energy producers and applied industries including pharmaceuticals, mining, food and beverage, refining and chemicals, textiles and renewables. Its proprietary technology portfolio includes Counterflow Reverse Osmosis (CFRO), Semi-Batch Reverse Osmosis (SBRO), Carrier Gas Extraction (CGE), Selective Contaminant Extraction (SCE), Free Radical Oxidation (FRO), Bio Infinity, the ForeverGone PFAS destruction process, the HyperSolved data-center cooling-water platform, the CURE Chemicals specialty-chemicals line and SmartOps AI, a machine-learning platform for optimizing and predicting plant operations. Gradiant raised a Series E at a $2 billion valuation in May 2026. It is an industrial equipment, chemicals and build-own-operate services company: it publishes no public developer portal, no developer API, no SDK and no machine-readable API contract, and SmartOps AI is delivered as a customer-facing operations platform rather than as a public API.
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.
API Evangelist profiles Gradiant 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 — Gradiant scores 11.3/100 (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 Gradiant
Each block below is one kind of artifact we hold for Gradiant. 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.

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