Jagex

Jagex is a British video game developer and publisher headquartered in Cambridge, England, best known as the studio behind RuneScape and Old School RuneScape - persistent, community-shaped online worlds that have run for over two decades. Beyond the games, Jagex operates a set of public, read-only RuneScape web-data APIs: the Grand Exchange item price and catalogue endpoints (for both RuneScape and Old School RuneScape), the RuneScape and Old School RuneScape Hiscores, and the RuneMetrics player-profile service. These unauthenticated JSON and CSV endpoints power a large third-party ecosystem of price trackers, fan sites, clan tools, and community applications. Jagex was surfaced as a portfolio company of Insight Partners.

human only

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.

Kin Score

API Evangelist profiles Jagex the way a machine reads it — 7 machine-readable artifacts across 5 APIs, 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 — Jagex scores 19.5/100 (emerging), with a separate agent-readiness read of 7/100 (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 Jagex

Each block below is one kind of artifact we hold for Jagex. 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 5

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.

Security 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.
