Site terms may apply to any integration approach, and how they apply is a determination each team makes for itself.

Grades measure one thing: can a customer's engineering team get their own data out programmatically? We check six things (whether a real API exists, how access is gated, data coverage, auth quality, docs and developer experience, and stability) and roll them into a letter grade. Grades get re-verified, and they only move on evidence.
Yes, via a managed API layer. Supergood builds REST APIs and MCP servers for authenticated enterprise web apps, so AI agents and internal tools can read and write data programmatically.
