Tapsense
TapSense was a mobile advertising and real-time-bidding exchange founded in 2011 in San Francisco, connecting app publishers to brand advertisers through a private mobile RTB marketplace, an advertiser API and publisher SDKs. It was surfaced as a portfolio company of a16z and added to the API Evangelist network as a stub for enrichment. The company is defunct and the 2026-08-12 re-verification confirms it - the tapsense.com zone is now a parked domain held by Trellian Pty. Limited, serving a 995-byte "This domain may be for sale" holding page from a wildcard A record, so www, api and developer subdomains all return that same page and docs.tapsense.com fails TLS on an expired certificate. No OpenAPI, GraphQL, AsyncAPI, MCP, agent card, webhook or well-known document exists on any host, and no first-party package survives on npm, PyPI, RubyGems, Maven Central, CocoaPods or crates.io. The advertiser API and mobile SDKs the company once marketed went offline with it, so there is nothing to enrich beyond this identity record.
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.
Tapsense 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 — Tapsense 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
TapSense is dead and its domain has been resold - tapsense.com now answers from Trellian's parking netblock with a 995-byte "This domain may be for sale" page on a wildcard record, so api. and developer. return that same holding page rather than any surface and docs.tapsense.com fails TLS on an expired certificate.
This is an honest zero, not a gap in our research. Tapsense 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.

The organization behind the API
Tapsense 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.
← All providers · Data indexed from github.com/api-evangelist/tapsense · machine-readable index on apis.io
This is an independent, third-party profile of Tapsense, 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.
