Raken

Raken is a San Diego-based construction technology company providing a field-first daily reporting and field management platform for general contractors, subcontractors, and heavy-civil contractors. The Raken mobile and web apps let field crews capture daily progress reports, time cards, production quantities, safety observations, toolbox talks, photos, videos, and checklists, then push that data back to the office in real time. Office users get dashboards across projects, members, equipment, materials, budgets, and certifications, and can sync data with accounting, payroll, and project management tools such as QuickBooks, Sage, Foundation, Procore, Autodesk, and Bluebeam. Raken also exposes a Public API 3.0 — a REST API protected by OAuth 2.0 — covering projects, members, daily reports, shifts, time cards, work logs, equipment logs, material logs, observations, checklists, toolbox talks, certifications, groups, classifications, cost codes, pay types, budgets, and more, enabling third-party integrations and custom workflow automation across the construction back office.

More than an index entry, but the surface is still mostly links rather than artifacts — the cohort most likely to move a full band from modest, well-targeted work.

Kin Score

API Evangelist profiles Raken the way a machine reads it — 20 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 — Raken scores 27.1/100 (emerging), 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.

How we profile Raken

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

Raken Public API

Raken Public API 3.0 is a REST API protected by OAuth 2.0 that exposes the core entities of the Raken construction field-management platform: projects (and their child projects,...

Security Posture 1

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.
