Joy (ex-Privateaser)
Joy is a French SaaS platform for bars, restaurants and venues that turns group and event enquiries into confirmed bookings. Founded in 2014 as Privateaser, the company now runs a two-sided business: privateaser.com, the group-venue marketplace that captures demand, and Joy, the manager-facing application (web plus iOS/Android) where an establishment centralises requests from Google, Instagram, its own website, WhatsApp and Privateaser, then works them through a unified calendar and messaging inbox, an SEO/GEO-optimised event showcase page, a virtual phone assistant, quotes, French-compliant invoicing, and Stripe-backed deposits and prepayments. Joy reports more than 3,000 partner establishments and over EUR100M in bookings managed in 2025. It publishes no public API, SDK, webhook catalogue or developer portal; the only integration surfaces it documents for customers are an embeddable iframe booking form, Reserve-with-Google, and a one-click reservation copy into Zenchef.
Joy (ex-Privateaser) is tracked in the API Evangelist network. This page is the human-readable profile that sits on top of the machine-readable index we maintain at apis.io.
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. 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
Joy ships software only as an end-user product — a manager web/mobile app plus a hosted booking widget — and publishes no developer portal, API reference, OpenAPI, webhook catalogue or SDK; the private backend its own app calls, manager-api.privateaser.com (read from https://app.joy.io/config.js), returns HTTP 404 on /openapi.json and every other spec path and is gated by an AWS Cognito user pool, and the 90-article help-center index at faq.joy.io/llms.txt never uses the word "api".
This is an honest zero, not a gap in our research. Joy (ex-Privateaser) does not appear to expose an API, so there is nothing here for us to index and nothing for them to fix.

Joy (ex-Privateaser) is in the network as a tracked entity. We haven't yet indexed a public API surface for it — when one is published, the artifacts, score, and agent-readiness read will appear here automatically. The source repository is where that profile is built.

This is an independent, third-party profile of Joy (ex-Privateaser), 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.
