Vastera
Vastera, Inc. was a global trade management (GTM) software and managed-services company headquartered in Dulles, Virginia. Its solutions automated the trade-management processes tied to the physical movement of goods across international borders — import/export documentation, licensing and classification, compliance and tax requirements, inventory management, and payment tracking. A Battery Ventures portfolio company, Vastera went public on Nasdaq in 2000 and was acquired by JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. for $3.00 per share (approximately $129 million), effective April 1, 2005, becoming JPMorgan Chase Vastera. It no longer operates independently and publishes no public website or APIs; the vastera.com domain remains registered but is configured for email only.
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.
API Evangelist profiles Vastera the way a machine reads it — 1 machine-readable artifact, 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 — Vastera 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.
How we profile Vastera
Each block below is one kind of artifact we hold for Vastera. 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.
Security Posture 1
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.
