LightLogic

LightLogic was an optoelectronics company founded in January 1998 and headquartered in Newark, California. It designed and manufactured highly integrated optical modules — transmitters and receivers — for high-speed (10 Gb/s and up) fiber optic telecommunications equipment, specializing in the integration of lasers, micro-optics and high-speed electronics. Its marquee products were 10 Gb/s transponders providing optical-to-electrical conversion for SONET OC-192 and 10 Gigabit Ethernet applications, sold to optical networking OEMs building primarily metro-market systems. The company raised $57.5M and was backed by Bessemer Venture Partners, Cisco Systems, Infineon Technologies, Dassault Developpement, Infinity Capital, Lightspeed Venture Partners (then Weiss, Peck and Greer), Optical Capital Group, Ridge Ventures, Siemens Mustang Ventures and Viventures. LightLogic was acquired by Intel Corporation; by mid-2002 lightlogic.com redirected to Intel's optical transceiver product pages. This is a hardware component maker with no API, developer or software surface — historically or today — and the lightlogic.com domain no longer resolves.

human only

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.

Kin Score

LightLogic 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 — LightLogic 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.

LightLogic 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.
