Determine whether popular sump pump monitoring brands (PumpSpy, Zoeller Z Control, Liberty NightEye, Wayne) expose a public developer API before building an integration

Steps
Check PumpSpy's support documentation (support.pumpspy.com/documentation) — it covers hardware manuals and WiFi setup guides only; no public API/developer portal is published
Check Zoeller's Z Control Cloud (zcontrolcloud.com) and its support pages — Z Control is a proprietary cloud platform for the branded app/device sharing, with no public developer API found
Check Liberty Pumps' NightEye product pages (libertypumps.com/nighteye) — NightEye works over the home WiFi network with app-based push/SMS/email alerts, but no public API is documented
For Wayne pumps, no dedicated smart-monitoring app or API was found in current vendor documentation — treat Wayne as hardware-only unless a specific product line states otherwise
As an alternative integration path, monitor these pumps indirectly with a general-purpose power-monitoring smart plug (which does publish an API) on the pump's circuit, or use a leak/float sensor brand that does publish an API, such as YoLink
Known gotchas
Unofficial reverse-engineered integrations exist in hobbyist communities (e.g., a Home Assistant PumpSpy integration thread) — these are not vendor-supported, can break on any app update, and shouldn't be presented to a client as a stable API
Absence of a documented API is not proof one will never exist — re-verify directly with the vendor's support team before committing to a 'no API' statement in a proposal, since consumer IoT vendors change this without much announcement
