Metamarkets

Metamarkets built a real-time analytics platform for the programmatic advertising industry, giving ad exchanges, DSPs, SSPs, and publishers an interactive dashboard over billions of daily bid, impression, and spend events. Its Real-Time Data Ingestion (RDI) platform ingests well-formatted, standards-based ad-tech event data (adhering to OpenRTB 2.5, IAB guidelines, and ISO date/country/language/currency standards) over an authenticated HTTPS streaming endpoint and surfaces it in the Metamarkets dashboard within seconds for querying and analysis. Metamarkets was acquired by Snap Inc. in 2017; the primary metamarkets.com site is now defunct, but the legacy developer documentation for the RDI platform remains live at docs.metamarkets.com. Surfaced as a portfolio company of Anthemis and profiled in the API Evangelist network.

agent aware

More than an index entry, but the surface is still mostly links rather than artifacts — the cohort most likely to move a full band from modest, well-targeted work.

Kin Score

API Evangelist profiles Metamarkets the way a machine reads it — 4 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 — Metamarkets scores 20.8/100 (emerging), with a separate agent-readiness read of 24/100 (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 Metamarkets

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

Metamarkets Real-Time Data Ingestion (RDI) API

HTTPS event-ingestion API for streaming batches of newline-delimited JSON, OpenRTB 2.5-based ad-tech event records (e.g. MmxAuctionSummary) to the Metamarkets platform for near-...

Rate Limits 1

Rate limits are the difference between a demo that works and a production integration that doesn't fall over. Publishing them is an operational-transparency signal — and a hard requirement for any agent that plans its own throughput.

Documented rate limits and quota policies.

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.
