Vela (FKA SR Labs)
Vela Trading Technologies (formerly SR Labs) was a New York-based provider of low-latency market data feed handlers, execution gateways, and multi-asset trading platforms (SuperFeed, Metro, DMA Platform) for capital markets, surfaced here as an Insight Partners portfolio company. Vela merged into Exegy in May 2021 and no longer operates independently - tradevela.com is offline (HTTPS refused at probe time) while its DNS now points at Exegy mail infrastructure. Vela published no self-serve public HTTP API; SuperFeed was delivered via the open-source OpenMAMA API (C++/C#/Java) with an OpenMAMA Developer Program, and its 2017 OptionsCity acquisition exposed the now-decommissioned City Trader REST API, for which a first-party Python client survives on the legacy GitHub org. See the exegy profile for the successor company's current surface.
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 Vela (FKA SR Labs) 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 — Vela (FKA SR Labs) scores 8.3/100 (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.
