Textaurant
Textaurant was an early SMS-based restaurant waitlist and table-management startup founded around 2010 by Josh Bob in Waltham, Massachusetts, and later surfaced as a 500 Global portfolio company. Its software let a restaurant manage its waiting list from a laptop and text guests when a table opened up, positioning itself as a lower-cost alternative to pager-based systems from JTECH and OpenTable. The original company is defunct: its primary domain, textaurant.com, now resolves to a parked GoDaddy "for sale" landing page with no product, documentation, or API surface. A separate, unaffiliated live app reusing the name exists at app.textaurant.app (a small Twilio-backed Next.js application served through a personal proxy), but it publishes no public API, OpenAPI definition, SDK, or developer documentation. There is no API to onboard against; this profile is retained as a network record of a defunct provider.
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.
Textaurant 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 — Textaurant scores 6.8/100 (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.
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.

The organization behind the API
Textaurant 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.
