Superpedestrian
Superpedestrian was a Cambridge, Massachusetts micromobility company founded in December 2012 by MIT Senseable City Lab co-inventor Assaf Biderman. It built the Copenhagen Wheel electric bicycle retrofit (2017) and then the LINK shared e-scooter fleet (2020), whose differentiator was an onboard Vehicle Intelligence System running self-diagnostic safety checks on every ride. It raised roughly $185M (a $60M round in December 2020 and a $125M Series C in February 2022 with Citi Impact Fund and Sony Innovation Fund) and at its 2022 peak ran shared fleets in about 57 cities across eleven US states and seven European countries. Superpedestrian closed its US operations on 31 December 2023 and auctioned more than 20,000 scooters in January 2024; the European business was sold to Norway's SURF Beyond in February 2024 and subsequently folded into ZEUS Mobility. The company published no public developer program and no machine-readable API contract. Its only known machine-readable surface was per-city GBFS feeds served for host cities at mds.linkyour.city, which are offline. Both superpedestrian.com and link.city are now parked domains that answer HTTP 200 to every path with a domain-parking lander, and link.city is delegated to afternic.com nameservers and listed for sale.
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.
Superpedestrian 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 — Superpedestrian scores 5.0/100 (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
Superpedestrian shut down US operations on 2023-12-31 and sold its European business to SURF Beyond and then ZEUS Mobility; superpedestrian.com and link.city are now domain-parking landers that return HTTP 200 with the same '' shell for every path including /openapi.json and /.well-known/agent-card.json, api./developer./docs. subdomains no longer resolve in DNS, and the historical GBFS host mds.linkyour.city is gone.
This is an honest zero, not a gap in our research. Superpedestrian 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. Every facet and dimension name is a link: it opens that measurement's page on APIs.io, where the rating runs across the whole catalog — the exact checks that feed it, how every profiled provider distributes on it, and who is at the top of it.

SDKs, sample code, and the tooling you integrate with
Superpedestrian 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.

This is an independent, third-party profile of Superpedestrian, 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.
