Houm
Houm (Houm Technologies SpA) is a Chilean proptech operating a digital real-estate brokerage and rental-management marketplace across Chile, Mexico and Colombia, with operations in Santiago, Viña del Mar, Concepcion, Bogota and Ciudad de Mexico. Founded in 2018 by Benjamin Labra and Nicolas Knockaert, the company lets owners list, rent and sell apartments and houses without a guarantor (sin aval), guarantees on-time rent payment to the owner even when the tenant does not pay, and runs a network of freelance field agents ("Houmers") who photograph, show and manage properties. Its ReV pricing algorithm (houm.com/cl/algoritmo-precio) values a property online, and it also runs an investor product and a broker exchange (Houm Aliados / Canje Corredores). Houm raised a $35M Series A in 2021 led by Goodwater Capital. As of this profile Houm publishes no public developer program, API reference or machine-readable contract; its production backend at api.houm.com answers 403 to every anonymous request and carries no published documentation.
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 Houm the way a machine reads it — 5 machine-readable artifacts, 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 — Houm scores 14.7/100 (emerging), with a separate agent-readiness read of 12/100 (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.
Why this profile is thin
Houm ships software only as an end-user product — no developer portal, no API reference and no machine-readable contract exists anywhere in its estate: developers.houm.com does not resolve, docs.houm.com is an AWS API Gateway custom domain with no route mapped (403 Missing Authentication Token), api.houm.com refuses every anonymous path with 403 Forbidden, the github.com/houm-com organization has 0 public repositories, and help.houm.com is an end-user help centre with no developer section. The only anonymously readable machine-readable surfaces are Houm's own Auth0 OIDC discovery documents at auth.houm.com and the stock WordPress REST API on its blog host, neither of which is a Houm product API.
This is an honest zero, not a gap in our research. Houm does not appear to expose an API, so there is nothing here for us to index and nothing for them to fix.

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 Houm
Each block below is one kind of artifact we hold for Houm. 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.
Pricing Plans 1
Pricing is part of the interface. Machine-readable plans tell you what a tier costs and includes before you commit — one of the things the Kin Score reads for access clarity — renamed from commercial clarity in rubric 0.12, because a free statutory interface has access terms and no commercial ones.
Published pricing tiers and plan structures.
Houm Plans Pricing
PLANSRate Limits 1
Rate limits are the difference between a demo that works and a production integration that doesn't fall over. Publishing them is an operational-transparency signal — and a hard requirement for any agent that plans its own throughput.
Documented rate limits and quota policies.

RATE LIMITSSecurity Posture 2
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.
Authentication, domain security, vulnerability disclosure, and trust-center signals.
Scopes 1
OAuth scopes are the vocabulary of least-privilege access. Profiling them shows exactly what an integration — or an agent acting on a user's behalf — is allowed to do.

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