Matter Labs
Matter Labs is the company behind ZKsync, a family of zero-knowledge (ZK) rollup Layer 2 scaling solutions for Ethereum. Its flagship network, ZKsync Era, is an EVM-compatible ZK rollup that inherits Ethereum security while offering low fees and high throughput. For developers ZKsync Era exposes a public, Ethereum-compatible JSON-RPC API (the standard eth_* namespace) extended with a ZKsync-specific zks_* namespace covering L1 batches, L1<->L2 bridging, fee and gas-per-pubdata estimation, token discovery, and Merkle proofs, plus a WebSocket pub/sub surface. First-party SDKs ship for JavaScript/TypeScript (zksync-ethers), Python (zksync2), and Go (zksync2-go), alongside a zksync-cli developer tool and native account-abstraction support. Matter Labs also builds the ZK Stack for launching sovereign ZK chains. The company is backed by a16z.
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 Matter Labs 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 — Matter Labs scores 33.3/100 (thin), with a separate agent-readiness read of 39/100 (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 Matter Labs
Each block below is one kind of artifact we hold for Matter Labs. 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.
ZKsync Era JSON-RPC API
Ethereum-compatible JSON-RPC 2.0 API for the ZKsync Era ZK rollup. Standard eth_* methods plus the ZKsync-specific zks_* namespace (batches, bridging, fee estimation, proofs) ov...
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.

MCP SERVEREvent 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.

ZKsync Era Pub/Sub (WebSocket) API
Generated from the ZKsync Era pub-sub JSON-RPC documentation. ZKsync Era supports the Ethereum-style eth_subscribe / eth_unsubscribe subscription model over WebSocket. This is a...
ASYNCAPISecurity 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.
