The State of Revenue Plumbing APIs

About this report

The connective tissue — pipelines, events, scheduling, forms, integration middleware. It scores highest of any area in revenue software, which surprises nobody: plumbing that cannot be called is not plumbing. What is worth reading is where even this area stops.

66 companies. Kin Score median 60.5, Agent Readiness median 52.7. 19 reach the Exemplar band; 6 sit in Emerging or Minimal. Every one of them is named and ranked in the report — if you work in this market, you are in the table, and so is everyone you compete with.

The best-scoring area in revenue software on every artifact measure, and it fails consent and idempotency at 91% each. Even the market’s integration specialists have not built for a caller that acts on someone else’s behalf.
