Tibber

Tibber is a fully-digital Nordic and European retail electricity provider operating in Norway, Sweden, Germany, and the Netherlands. Founded in 2016 by Daniel Lindén and Edgeir Vårdal Aksnes, the company passes Nord Pool / EPEX hourly spot prices through to customers at cost and overlays software-driven optimisation for EV charging, heat pumps, and rooftop solar to shift load to cheap and clean grid hours. Tibber publishes two distinct developer APIs: the long-standing GraphQL endpoint at api.tibber.com/v1-beta/gql for customer, subscription, price, consumption, production, and real-time `liveMeasurement` data streamed from the Tibber Pulse; and the newer OAuth 2.0 Data API at data-api.tibber.com that exposes normalised time series for third-party IoT devices (vehicles, chargers, thermostats / heat pumps, inverters, home batteries) linked through the Tibber mobile app.

agent ready

Reference-quality API operations across every facet — a rich contract, published governance, transparent operations, and machine-readable commercial terms.

Kin Score

API Evangelist profiles Tibber the way a machine reads it — 71 machine-readable artifacts across 4 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 — Tibber scores 71.4/100 (exemplar), with a separate agent-readiness read of 48/100 (agent ready). 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 Tibber

Each block below is one kind of artifact we hold for Tibber. 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 4

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.

Tibber GraphQL API

Tibber's long-standing GraphQL API. A single HTTPS endpoint serves the `viewer` query (with nested `homes`, `currentSubscription`, `priceInfo`, `consumption`, `production`, and ...

Tibber Devices API

IoT devices linked to a home, exposed across vehicles, chargers, thermostats, inverters, and energy systems.

Tibber History API

Historical time series at quarter-hour, hourly, daily, and monthly resolution.

Tibber Homes API

Tibber customer homes the calling client has been granted access to.

Postman Collections 2

A runnable collection turns the contract into something a developer can execute in seconds. We profile them because the fastest way to trust an API is to make a real call against it.

Ready-to-run Postman collections for exercising this provider's APIs.

Open Collections 2

Open, tool-agnostic collections carry the same runnable value as Postman without locking you to one client — the portable, forkable form of the same exercise.

Open, tool-agnostic API collections (OpenAPI-derived and Bruno).

Arazzo Workflows 8

Real integrations are rarely a single call. Arazzo describes the multi-step sequences — auth, then create, then confirm — so both a human and an agent can follow the choreography, not just the endpoints.

Multi-step API workflows described with the Arazzo specification.

Tibber Consumption Report

Discover the viewer's homes over GraphQL, then pull the most recent hourly consumption nodes with cost for the chosen home.

ARAZZO

Tibber Current Price By Home

Discover the viewer's homes over GraphQL, then fetch the current hourly Nord Pool price and price level for the chosen home.

ARAZZO

Tibber Inspect Connected Device

List a home's connected devices and branch on the device category to read full detail for a vehicle, charger, or other linked device.

ARAZZO

Tibber Price Alert Push

Read the current price level over GraphQL, branch on whether power is cheap, and push a Tibber app notification when it is.

ARAZZO

Tibber Production Report

Discover the viewer's homes over GraphQL, then pull the most recent hourly production nodes with profit for the chosen home.

ARAZZO

Tibber Pull Device History

Discover a home, find one of its connected devices, confirm the resolution it supports, then pull a page of historical telemetry.

ARAZZO

Tibber Real-Time Power Readiness

Resolve the WebSocket subscription URL and check whether a home has Tibber Pulse real-time consumption enabled before opening a liveMeasurement stream.

ARAZZO

Tibber Submit Meter Reading

Discover the viewer's home over GraphQL, then submit a manual meter reading for that home with the sendMeterReading mutation.

GraphQL 1

Where a provider ships GraphQL, the schema is the contract. We profile it alongside the REST surface so the whole interface is legible in one place.

Pricing Plans 1

Pricing is part of the interface. Machine-readable plans tell you what a tier costs and includes before you commit — one of the six things the Kin Score reads for commercial clarity.

Published pricing tiers and plan structures.

Rate Limits 1

Rate limits are the difference between a demo that works and a production integration that doesn't fall over. Publishing them is an operational-transparency signal — and a hard requirement for any agent that plans its own throughput.

Documented rate limits and quota policies.

FinOps 1

Cost, billing, and metering signals let a buyer model the financial operations of an API before it's live. We profile them for the same reason we profile pricing: the money is part of the contract.

Semantic Vocabularies 1

JSON-LD contexts give the data shared meaning across APIs. We profile them because semantics are what let a machine reconcile 'customer' here with 'customer' somewhere else.

Examples 5

Real request and response payloads are what turn a spec from abstract into obvious — and they're one of the twelve things an agent needs to call an API correctly on the first try.

Example request and response payloads for these APIs.

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.
