Platfora
Platfora was a big-data analytics company founded in 2011 by Ben Werther that provided in-memory business intelligence and data visualization directly on top of Apache Hadoop, letting analysts run interactive queries, build "lenses," and share dashboards without ETL into a separate warehouse. Backed by Andreessen Horowitz, Battery Ventures, In-Q-Tel and others, it raised roughly $65M before Workday acquired the company in July 2016 and folded the technology into Workday's analytics stack. The standalone Platfora product and platfora.com developer surface were subsequently discontinued; the domain no longer resolves and no public API or developer program remains.
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.
Platfora 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 — Platfora 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.
Platfora 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.
