Calm

  Calm is an American digital wellness company headquartered in San Francisco
  that builds a mobile and web app focused on mindfulness, meditation, sleep,
  and mental health. Founded in 2012 by Michael Acton Smith and Alex Tew, Calm
  offers guided meditations, Sleep Stories (long-form bedtime audio often
  narrated by celebrities), breathing exercises, mindfulness courses, music
  for focus and sleep, and a Daily Calm session. The consumer Calm app is
  distributed through the iOS App Store and Google Play under a freemium
  subscription model. The company also operates two B2B products. Calm
  Business sells the consumer experience to employers as an employee wellness
  benefit, and Calm Health is a clinical mental health offering for health
  plans and large self-insured employers, with structured programs aligned
  to clinical needs. Both B2B products are powered by the Calm Partner API
  (auth.calm.com/v0), a small OAuth 2.0 client-credentials REST surface that
  partner systems use to provision, link, and cancel Calm subscriptions for
  their members or employees. Partners also integrate via SAML 2.0
  IdP-initiated SSO and SFTP-uploaded eligibility files (CSV at
  sftp.ws.calm.com:/inbound/eligibility/). Calm publishes a handful of
  open-source utilities under github.com/calm — primarily iOS audio/video
  helpers (PersistentStreamPlayer, KenBurns) and React-Intl ESLint plugins —
  but there is no public consumer-facing developer API.

    name: Calm Partner API
    description: >-
      OAuth 2.0 client-credentials REST API used by Calm Business and Calm
      Health partners to provision and revoke Calm subscriptions for partner
      end users. Three operations cover the lifecycle - authorize the partner
      service, link a partner user, and cancel a partner user subscription.
      Credentials (client_id, client_secret) are issued by Calm's B2B
      Engineering Team and the API is served from auth.calm.com (production)
      and auth-ga.aws-dev.useast1.calm.com (development).
