steute Technologies GmbH & Co. KG

steute Technologies GmbH & Co. KG is a German industrial technology company headquartered in Löhne that develops switchgear, sensors and controls under the tagline "Applied Intelligence", organized into three divisions: Meditec (certified user interfaces such as foot and hand controls for medical devices), Controltec (safe industrial automation with switches, sensors and wireless solutions) and Leantec (digital shop floor solutions). Its Leantec "nexy" IIoT wireless network, built on the sWave.NET radio protocol, connects hundreds of wireless switches and sensors to shop-floor IT through a Sensor Bridge gateway that exposes a JWT-secured REST API (OpenAPI 3.0), HTTP(S) push notifications, Modbus TCP and optional OPC UA and SAP modules for eKanban, AGV, Andon and material-flow integration. steute was surfaced as a portfolio company of Battery Ventures.

agent native

Limited machine-readable signal and partial portal coverage — documentation a human can read, but little a machine or agent can consume without scraping.

Kin Score

API Evangelist profiles steute Technologies GmbH & Co. KG the way a machine reads it — 12 machine-readable artifacts across 7 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 — steute Technologies GmbH & Co. KG scores 43.5/100 (thin), with a separate agent-readiness read of 71/100 (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 steute Technologies GmbH & Co. KG

Each block below is one kind of artifact we hold for steute Technologies GmbH & Co. KG. 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 7

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.

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.

Model Context Protocol servers that expose these APIs to AI agents.

Event Specifications 1

Not every API is request/response. AsyncAPI describes the event-driven and streaming side — the webhooks and channels — so the asynchronous half of the interface is documented the same way the synchronous half is.

AsyncAPI definitions for this provider's event-driven and streaming APIs.

steute nexy Sensor Bridge HTTP(S) Notifications

The Sensor Bridge sends JSON data via HTTP POST to configured target URLs whenever a switch is actuated, a switch or actor sends a wake-up message, or expected wake-up messages ...

ASYNCAPI

Security Posture 2

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.

Authentication, domain security, vulnerability disclosure, and trust-center signals.

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.

Recommended x-agentic-access execution contracts for AI agents.
