APIs.io Is the First to License the API Evangelist Rating System

I have spent my whole career forming opinions about whether an API is any good. Not whether the company behind it is valuable, and not whether the product is clever, but the narrower and more useful question: can I actually find this API, understand it, trust how it behaves, and integrate it without a human having to sit beside me and explain the parts that were left out of the documentation. I have made that judgment thousands of times, mostly in my head, and for most of that time it lived as instinct rather than as anything anyone else could pick up and run themselves.
