Seven US grids · one API

US grid data is public.
Getting it is painful.

Vatio turns seven messy operator feeds into one clean API. Prices, demand, and the full generation mix for every US grid, down to the node for CAISO with day-ahead, real-time, and the DART spread. Sign up with an email, get a key, start pulling.
