Perch
Perch is a computer-vision weight-room performance monitoring system that captures athlete movement — velocity-based training, jump testing, and strength programming — from 3D cameras mounted on the rack, without wearables or tethers. Spun out of MIT and backed by SoftBank Vision Fund and Techstars, Perch was acquired by sports-technology company Catapult; the perch.fit domain now 301-redirects to catapult.com/perch, where the product is sold and supported as part of Catapult's athlete-monitoring suite. Perch exposes no public API, developer portal, SDK, or machine-readable API specification — this profile is retained as an identity record for the acquired brand.
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.
Perch 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 — Perch scores 14.4/100 (minimal), with a separate agent-readiness read of 4/100 (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.

The organization behind the API
Perch 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.
