  separate Inside Plant and Outside Plant flows. Pricing is quote-only; no list prices, tiers, or
  quotas are published.
- [Credit Application](https://viaphoton.com/credit-application/)

## Code

- [GitHub organization](https://github.com/viaPhoton): four public repositories. Two (QReader,
  qrdet) are forks of third-party QR-detection projects. model-zoo holds ML model weights.
  PolarityExtractor is a first-party internal web app that extracts fiber-optic polarity maps from
  engineering drawings. None is a client library and none wraps a viaPhoton API.

## API status

- **No public API.** As of 2026-09-02 viaPhoton publishes no OpenAPI, AsyncAPI, GraphQL SDL,
  Postman collection, MCP server, A2A agent card, developer portal, API reference, or SDK.
- One first-party API host exists — `https://pp-api.viaphoton.com`, the Node/Express backend of the
  product configurator — but it is an application backend, not a developer product: no reference,
  no specification, no discovery documents, and access keyed from the configurator page.
- Machine-readable discovery probed and missed on every host: `/.well-known/security.txt`,
  `/openid-configuration`, `/oauth-authorization-server`, `/oauth-protected-resource`,
  `/api-catalog`, `/ai-plugin.json`, `/agent-card.json`, `/agent.json`, `/openapi.json`,
  `/swagger.json`, `/graphql`, `/llms.txt`.
- Note for crawlers: `viaphoton.com` sits behind a SiteGround anti-bot interstitial that answers
  HTTP 202 with a meta-refresh challenge for every path, including `/robots.txt` and
  `/sitemap.xml`, regardless of user agent.
