OpenPages
IBM OpenPages is an AI-driven, unified governance, risk, and compliance (GRC) platform delivered as a managed service on IBM Cloud. Originally founded as OpenPages Inc. (a Matrix Partners portfolio company) and acquired by IBM in 2010, it consolidates operational risk, regulatory compliance, financial controls, policy, IT governance, third-party risk, and model/AI governance (watsonx.governance) into one system of record. OpenPages exposes a data-centric GRC REST API (v1 and v2), an ObjectManager CLI (ibmcloud openpages), IBM Cloud IAM authentication, and event notifications (CloudEvents v1.0) so teams can automate configuration, integrate risk data, and drive event-driven workflows.
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 OpenPages 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 — OpenPages scores 40.4/100 (thin), with a separate agent-readiness read of 15/100 (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 OpenPages
Each block below is one kind of artifact we hold for OpenPages. 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.
IBM OpenPages GRC REST API
Data-centric GRC REST API for IBM OpenPages, specified in terms of resources, their URIs, and the actions that can be performed on those URIs. Available as v1 and v2. The API is...
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.

ASYNCAPISecurity Posture 3
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.
