lockapi: one API for every smart lock

lockapi.dev Observed source

Editorial interest 78/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

A unified REST API for connecting smart-lock vendors, listing devices, and creating or revoking time-bound guest access codes.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-04 issue.

Field notes

The service uses a hosted connect page to link a tenant’s lock-vendor account, then presents devices through a normalized API rather than exposing each manufacturer’s quirks. Its stated operations include idempotent creation and revocation of time-bound guest codes. Nuki support is described as verified against real hardware, while TTLock, Akiles, Tedee, Yale/August, and Tuya adapters are identified as still progressing toward live verification.
