Lytx

Lytx is a video telematics and fleet management technology company whose Lytx Vision Platform combines machine-vision cameras (DriveCam and Surfsight), AI event detection, GPS tracking, and telematics data for commercial fleets and safety programs. Lytx exposes an open developer API at api.lytx.com that lets integrators access video, real-time GPS and location, vehicle and device data, driver and safety event data, and tracking data programmatically to build custom fleet, insurance, maintenance, and routing integrations on top of the Lytx platform. Authentication is bearer-token based (with advanced OIDC/SSO/MFA options), and the developer portal at developer.lytx.com publishes getting-started guides, authentication docs, an API reference, and webhooks documentation.

agent native

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

API Evangelist profiles Lytx the way a machine reads it — 42 machine-readable artifacts across 37 APIs, 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 — Lytx scores 44.5/100 (thin), with a separate agent-readiness read of 75/100 (agent native). 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 Lytx

Each block below is one kind of artifact we hold for Lytx. 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 37

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.

MCP Servers 1

Model Context Protocol servers expose these APIs directly to AI agents. We profile them because agent-native access is the fastest-growing way this provider's capabilities actually get used.

Event Specifications 1

Not every API is request/response. AsyncAPI describes the event-driven and streaming side — the webhooks and channels — so the asynchronous half of the interface is documented the same way the synchronous half is.

Security Posture 2

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.

Agentic Access 1

An x-agentic-access contract marks which operations are safe for an agent to run on its own and which need a human in the loop. It is the difference between an API an agent can use and one it can use safely.
