Hoptroff
Hoptroff is a London-based precision timing company that delivers Traceable Time as a Service (TTaaS), providing enterprise-grade, traceable UTC time with guaranteed SLA accuracy to any data center or cloud environment. Founded in 2015 by Richard Hoptroff, the company operates a global network of atomic timing hubs in London, New York, and Tokyo, delivering microsecond-level precision over IEEE 1588 Precision Time Protocol (PTP) and NTP. Its Certified Time and Terrestrial Time Feed products let organizations timestamp and audit automated events without a satellite dependency, using resilient multi-source feeds (three satellite feeds plus a terrestrial feed from the RISE Institute of Sweden) that are hardened against GPS spoofing and network failure. Hoptroff is certified to ISO 27001 and ISO 9001, and its time synchronization is licensed as an API so a consistent, compliant timescale can be applied across an enterprise for use cases in financial services (MiFID II timestamping and high-frequency trading), content streaming, gaming, IoT, and distributed ledger technology.
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 Hoptroff 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 — Hoptroff scores 15.0/100 (emerging), 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 Hoptroff
Each block below is one kind of artifact we hold for Hoptroff. 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.
