ZaiNar

ZaiNar is a Positioning, Navigation and Timing (PNT) company that turns existing wireless networks into a sensing system. Its patented digital signal processing achieves sub-nanosecond time synchronization across commodity radios, which yields sub-meter 3D positioning for any device that emits a radio signal — indoors, outdoors, through walls and around corners — with no reliance on GPS/GNSS, cameras or additional device power. ZaiNar works across frequencies and known wireless protocols (Wi-Fi, 5G/SRS, IoT radios) and is deployed today in healthcare equipment tracking, construction site and safety-zone monitoring, and coordinated autonomous operations. The company emerged from nine years of stealth in February 2026 with more than $100M raised and a $1B+ valuation, and opened a Tokyo office in April 2026. Location data is delivered to customers through a private, credential-gated REST and real-time WebSocket platform; ZaiNar publishes no public developer portal, OpenAPI definition or SDKs as of this profiling pass.

agent aware

More than an index entry, but the surface is still mostly links rather than artifacts — the cohort most likely to move a full band from modest, well-targeted work.

Kin Score

API Evangelist profiles ZaiNar the way a machine reads it — 4 machine-readable artifacts across 1 API, 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 — ZaiNar scores 25.8/100 (emerging), with a separate agent-readiness read of 30/100 (agent aware). 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 ZaiNar

Each block below is one kind of artifact we hold for ZaiNar. 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 1

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.

ZaiNar Location Platform API

Private, credential-gated REST API for the ZaiNar Wi-Fi location cloud. Clients authenticate with a username/password to obtain a bearer token, then trigger and manage locates a...

Event Specifications 1

Not every API is request/response. AsyncAPI describes the event-driven and streaming side — the webhooks and channels — so the asynchronous half of the interface is documented the same way the synchronous half is.

AsyncAPI definitions for this provider's event-driven and streaming 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.

Where this information came from

This is an independent, third-party profile of ZaiNar, 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.
