APIs.guru
APIs.guru is an open source, community-driven directory of public REST API definitions in OpenAPI 2.0/3.x format, described as the Wikipedia for Web APIs. The project searches for public API definitions, converts various formats to OpenAPI 3.0, corrects errors in approximately 80% of definitions, and enriches entries with logos, categories, and metadata. It catalogs over 2,500 API descriptions with 100,000+ endpoints, updating definitions weekly from original sources. The platform is licensed under CC0-1.0 for contributed definitions and welcomes community contributions through GitHub.
Real signal across most facets with visible, nameable gaps — the contract exists but is thin, or the portal is good while governance and commercial terms are absent.
API Evangelist profiles APIs.guru the way a machine reads it — 41 machine-readable artifacts across 1 API, pulled from the provider's own public surface and indexed so a developer, an analyst, or an AI agent can evaluate it against every other provider on the network.
Every provider in the network is reduced to the same set of machine-readable artifacts — OpenAPI contracts, event specifications, GraphQL schemas, runnable collections, pricing and rate-limit signals, security posture, OAuth scopes, and the agent surfaces (MCP servers and skills) that let software drive the API on its own. We profile them because the interface is the part of a company you can actually inspect: it is a truer signal of what a provider does than any marketing page. From those artifacts we compute the Kin Score — APIs.guru scores 53.1/100 (developing), with a separate agent-readiness read of 39/100 (agent aware). The full breakdown is below, followed by every artifact we hold — each card links through to its machine-readable definition on apis.io.
Kin Score
This is the API Evangelist rating — a single, repeatable read computed from the artifacts on this page. Green fill is points earned; the red track is points possible, so every bar shows earned-versus-possible at a glance.
How we profile APIs.guru
Each block below is one kind of artifact we hold for APIs.guru. For each we say what it is and why it earns a place in the profile, then list every one we've indexed — capped at two rows, scroll within the panel for the rest.
APIs 1
Each API is captured as its own OpenAPI definition — every operation, parameter, and response. This is the single most useful machine-readable description of what an API does, and it's what lets us score, lint, mock, and generate against it without asking the provider for anything.
Individual APIs this provider publishes, each with its own machine-readable definition.

GraphQL 1
Where a provider ships GraphQL, the schema is the contract. We profile it alongside the REST surface so the whole interface is legible in one place.
GraphQL schemas published by this provider.

GRAPHQLPricing Plans 1
Pricing is part of the interface. Machine-readable plans tell you what a tier costs and includes before you commit — one of the six things the Kin Score reads for commercial clarity.
Published pricing tiers and plan structures.
Rate Limits 1
Rate limits are the difference between a demo that works and a production integration that doesn't fall over. Publishing them is an operational-transparency signal — and a hard requirement for any agent that plans its own throughput.
Documented rate limits and quota policies.

RATE LIMITSFinOps 1
Cost, billing, and metering signals let a buyer model the financial operations of an API before it's live. We profile them for the same reason we profile pricing: the money is part of the contract.

OpenAPI Directory
Comprehensive directory of over 2,500 public API definitions in OpenAPI 2.0 and 3.x format, updated weekly from original sources.
Format Conversion
Converts various API description formats (RAML, Google Discovery, AWS, etc.) to OpenAPI 3.0 standard for consistency and compatibility.
Quality Control
Corrects errors in approximately 80% of API definitions and validates all specifications before inclusion in the directory.
AsyncAPI Directory
Companion directory of asynchronous API specifications in AsyncAPI format for event-driven and message-based APIs.
GraphQL Voyager
Visual tool that represents any GraphQL API as an interactive graph, making schema exploration intuitive and visual.
REST API Access
Public REST API at api.apis.guru/v2 for programmatic access to the directory, metrics, provider lists, and individual API specs.
RSS Feeds
RSS feeds for both newly added and recently updated API definitions, allowing developers to stay current with directory changes.
Metadata Enrichment
Enriches API definitions with logos, categories, provider names, and other metadata to improve discoverability and browsability.

Semantic Vocabularies 1
JSON-LD contexts give the data shared meaning across APIs. We profile them because semantics are what let a machine reconcile 'customer' here with 'customer' somewhere else.

Governance rulesets we run against this provider's specs — the automated checks behind parts of the score. Profiling them makes the quality bar explicit and re-runnable, not a matter of opinion.

SPECTRALJSON Schema 4
Standalone JSON Schema definitions describe the data models behind the API. We profile them so the shapes are validatable on their own — useful long after a single request is forgotten.

JSON Structure 4
JSON Structure captures the data shapes in a form built for tooling — a complement to JSON Schema that keeps the model machine-legible.

Real request and response payloads are what turn a spec from abstract into obvious — and they're one of the twelve things an agent needs to call an API correctly on the first try.
Example request and response payloads for these APIs.
Security Posture 1
Authentication, domain security, vulnerability disclosure, and trust-center signals — the evidence that a provider takes security seriously enough to document it. We profile it because you can't govern what you can't see.

Agentic Access 1
An x-agentic-access contract marks which operations are safe for an agent to run on its own and which need a human in the loop. It is the difference between an API an agent can use and one it can use safely.
