Nanoconduction
Nanoconduction, Inc. was a Sunnyvale, California hardware startup that developed carbon-nanotube-based thermal management (chip-cooling) solutions for the microprocessor industry. The company licensed NASA Ames-developed Nano Engineered Thermal Material — vertically aligned carbon nanotube array composites that act as a high-efficiency thermal interface at the junction where processors meet heat sinks. Backed by Battery Ventures, Jerusalem Venture Partners, Phoenix Venture Partners, Western Technology Investment, and Woodside Fund (roughly $23M raised), Nanoconduction was acquired by Unidym in July 2008 and is permanently closed. It was surfaced as a Battery Ventures portfolio company and added to the API Evangelist network for enrichment; the enrichment pass found no public API, developer, or specification surface — a defunct materials-science hardware company with no digital API footprint.
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.
Nanoconduction 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 — Nanoconduction 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.

Nanoconduction 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.
