LiquidLight

LiquidLight, Inc. (Liquid Light) was an electrochemistry company based in Monmouth Junction, New Jersey that developed and licensed process technology for converting carbon dioxide into industrial chemicals. Founded in 2009 by Kyle Teamey, Emily Cole, Andrew Bocarsly, Fouad Elnaggar and Nety Krishna around technology licensed from Princeton University, the company built a portfolio of more than 100 patents covering the electrochemical production of chemicals including monoethylene glycol (MEG), propylene and acetic acid, with MEG as its lead target market. It raised seed funding from Redpoint Ventures and a $15 million Series B in September 2014 from investors including VantagePoint Capital Partners and BP Ventures, and was also a Battery Ventures portfolio investment. Avantium acquired Liquid Light on January 10, 2017 and the company ceased operating independently. LiquidLight was a materials and process-technology company: it never published a public API, developer portal, SDKs or any machine-readable developer surface, and no company web property survives the acquisition. This profile is retained in the API Evangelist network as an accurate, non-API portfolio record.

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

LiquidLight 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 — LiquidLight scores 8.1/100 (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.

LiquidLight 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.
