Launchable

Launchable is a software development intelligence platform for continuous integration that applies machine learning to CI and test data to speed up software delivery. Its flagship capability, Predictive Test Selection, records builds, test sessions and test results from a team's CI pipeline and returns a prioritized subset of tests most likely to fail for a given change, letting teams run a fraction of a suite while retaining most of its failure-detection power. The platform also provides test suite parallelization, flaky/unhealthy test detection, trends and test reporting, and Slack and GitHub notifications. Access is CLI-mediated: the open-source Launchable CLI (now the CloudBees Smart Tests CLI) wraps the service REST API and integrates with more than twenty test runners and build tools across Java, Python, Ruby, Go, JavaScript, .NET and Perl. Launchable was founded by Jenkins creator Kohsuke Kawaguchi and is now part of CloudBees, where the product ships as CloudBees Smart Tests.

agent aware

Limited machine-readable signal and partial portal coverage — documentation a human can read, but little a machine or agent can consume without scraping.

Kin Score

API Evangelist profiles Launchable the way a machine reads it — 5 machine-readable artifacts across 1 API, 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 — Launchable scores 38.5/100 (thin), with a separate agent-readiness read of 16/100 (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.

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 Launchable

Each block below is one kind of artifact we hold for Launchable. 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 1

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 4

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.
