  Botkeeper is an AI-powered accounting automation platform built specifically for
  accounting firms. Founded in 2015 and headquartered in Boston, the company's
  Botkeeper Infinite product combines machine learning with optional skilled
  accountants to automate bookkeeping at practice scale: Smart Connect pulls
  read-only bank and credit-card transactions and statements from thousands of
  financial institutions, Transaction Manager and Auto Bank Rec categorize and
  reconcile them against QuickBooks Online, QuickBooks Desktop and Xero, and
  Documents, Work, Close Tracker, JE Automation and Firm Insights carry the
  surrounding practice workflow. Botkeeper operates APIs — its own status page
  lists a User API, a Bookkeeping API and a Tasks API — and ships a first-party
  Zapier app, but it publishes no developer portal, no API reference and no
  machine-readable specification of any kind.

    Botkeeper's partner platform API. The company does not publish a reference,
    a portal or a specification for it; the only public evidence of its shape is
    Botkeeper's own status page, which lists three first-party components under
    "Application Programming Interface (APIs)" — User API, Bookkeeping API and
    Tasks API — and the first-party Zapier app, which exposes eight operations
    across clients, tasks, users and documents. The production host is an AWS API
    Gateway that answers every unauthenticated request with
    {"message":"Missing Authentication Token"}; authentication is Amazon Cognito
    OIDC. Recorded here from probed evidence only.

  detail: >-
    Twelve real artifacts were captured from Botkeeper's own surface — trust
    center, vulnerability disclosure policy, Statuspage components, release
    notes, Zapier operation catalogue and a live OpenID Connect discovery
    document — but no machine-readable API contract exists: Botkeeper names a
    User API, Bookkeeping API and Tasks API on its status page while publishing
    no developer portal or reference, and its historical api.botkeeper.com host
    is now a dangling CNAME to a retired Elastic Beanstalk environment.
