SOURCE Global
SOURCE Global, PBC (founded as Zero Mass Water) is a Scottsdale, Arizona public benefit corporation started in 2014 by Arizona State University materials scientist Cody Friesen to make drinking water out of sunlight and air. Its SOURCE Hydropanel is an off-grid solar-thermal device that pulls water vapor from the atmosphere, condenses and mineralizes it, and delivers roughly five liters of drinking water a day; the panels were deployed in residential, commercial, community and humanitarian projects across more than 50 countries, and the company later moved into bottled water, acquiring Proud Source Water in 2023. It raised approximately USD 270 million in total, including a USD 50 million Series C led by BlackRock in 2020 and a USD 130 million Series D in 2022 co-led by Breakthrough Energy Ventures and the Drawdown Fund with Microsoft Climate Innovation Fund and Fifth Wall participating. SOURCE was a hardware and consumer-products business rather than a software vendor: it never published a developer portal, API reference, SDK or any machine-readable API contract, and the only machine-readable surface its site ever exposed was the Shopify platform behind its direct-to-consumer storefront. The company went quiet during 2025 — an April 2025 SEC filing showed a USD 75 million raise that closed at USD 19.3 million, and founder Cody Friesen announced his departure in June 2025 — and as of August 2026 source.co answers HTTP 402 "Store unavailable" on every path while the legacy zeromasswater.com domain resolves to a parked GoDaddy builder page.
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.
API Evangelist profiles SOURCE Global the way a machine reads it — 1 machine-readable artifact, 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 — SOURCE Global scores 5.8/100 (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.
Why this profile is thin
SOURCE Global appears to have wound down — every path on source.co, including the homepage and all /.well-known/* probes, returns HTTP 402 with Shopify's "Store unavailable" page, source.co/llms.txt answers 200 with only "This store is currently unavailable. Agent interaction is not possible at this time.", and the legacy zeromasswater.com domain is now a parked GoDaddy builder page.
This is an honest zero, not a gap in our research. SOURCE Global does not appear to expose an API, so there is nothing here for us to index and nothing for them to fix.

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

This is an independent, third-party profile of SOURCE Global, published by API Evangelist. We do not operate, host, resell, or support these APIs, and we are not affiliated with or endorsed by the company unless stated above. Everything here is built from publicly available information — the company's own site, developer portal, documentation, public repositories, and the specifications it publishes for public use. Nothing is obtained by breaching a system, defeating an access control, or using credentials.
The Kin Score and Agent Readiness rating are independently calculated assessments of a company's public API artifacts, scored against a published rubric. They are not certifications, endorsements, security assessments, or audits.
Corrections, re-scores, and removal are free — no partnership or purchase required, and you do not need to justify the request. A removed company is recorded as unrated, never scored zero for having asked. Acknowledgement within one business day; removal within two.
