Kimono Labs
Kimono Labs was a developer-tools startup that let users turn any website into a structured API without writing code, using a visual point-and-click tool to define data selectors that Kimono would crawl on a schedule and expose as JSON/CSV endpoints and RSS feeds. Founded in 2014 by Pratap Ranade and Ryan Rowe and backed by Cowboy Ventures, the company was acquired by Palantir Technologies in February 2016, after which the hosted cloud service at kimonolabs.com was shut down on 29 February 2016; a downloadable Kimono Desktop application was released as a farewell so existing scrapers could continue running locally. The company is defunct and operates no live API today; this profile is retained for historical and network completeness.
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.
Kimono Labs 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. From those artifacts we compute the Kin Score — Kimono Labs scores 6.8/100 (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.

Kimono Labs 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.
