Polyteia

Polyteia is a Berlin-based govtech company offering a data platform for the German and European public sector. It lets public administrations connect existing systems, harmonize fragmented data, and use it in AI-supported workflows for forms, case processing, statistical evaluation, and reporting. The platform ships pre-built Solutions for common public-sector use cases (social-service planning, budget controlling, crisis response, kindergarten demand forecasting) plus a no-code/low-code Studio. It serves 80+ government entities in Germany, including the states of Schleswig-Holstein and Saarland. The platform is fully driveable through an RPC-style API (command/query over a single POST endpoint) authenticated with Personal Access Keys, backed by a Trust Center and GDPR/BSI/C5 compliance. Founded by Faruk Tuncer, Taisia Antonova, and Lukas Rambold; backed by HV Capital and DvH Ventures.

Real signal across most facets with visible, nameable gaps — the contract exists but is thin, or the portal is good while governance and commercial terms are absent.

Kin Score

API Evangelist profiles Polyteia the way a machine reads it — 10 machine-readable artifacts across 4 APIs, 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 — Polyteia scores 58.4/100 (developing), with a separate agent-readiness read of 65/100 (agent native). 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 Polyteia

Each block below is one kind of artifact we hold for Polyteia. 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 4

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.

Polyteia Dataset API

The Dataset API from Polyteia — 1 operation(s) for dataset.

Polyteia Organization API

The Organization API from Polyteia — 1 operation(s) for organization.

Polyteia Solution API

The Solution API from Polyteia — 1 operation(s) for solution.

Polyteia Workspace API

The Workspace API from Polyteia — 1 operation(s) for workspace.

MCP Servers 1

Model Context Protocol servers expose these APIs directly to AI agents. We profile them because agent-native access is the fastest-growing way this provider's capabilities actually get used.

Security Posture 4

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.

Agentic Access 1

An x-agentic-access contract marks which operations are safe for an agent to run on its own and which need a human in the loop. It is the difference between an API an agent can use and one it can use safely.
