The Data score on tech stack APIs

This score shows how many of a company's technologies the provider returns, out of 100. For each company we called, we divide the number of technologies the provider listed by the most any live API listed for that company. Then we average each provider's shares across the companies we called it on. We count a technology from a live API only if the company's website shows it or a second live API lists it. We leave out every other technology a live API lists. If only one live API found a company, we divide by the most any provider we called listed for that company. A company it didn't find counts as 0. We count what the company uses, not what is said of each technology, like its category or description. A provider called on fewer companies is set against how the others did on those same companies, so an easier few don't lift it.
