Stibo Systems API
Stibo's STEP platform ships a semantic-versioned REST API V2 plus a Java Extension SDK, but the API reference lives inside each installation at [system]/sdk, not on a public portal. Basic auth is the REST default, and OIDC service accounts require a manual Service Portal ticket.

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.
