Stability AI
Stability AI is an AI company that develops open-source generative AI models for image, audio, video, and language, including the Stable Diffusion family of image generation models. The Stability AI developer platform provides REST APIs for text-to-image generation, image editing, image upscaling, image structure control, video generation, and 3D asset creation. All APIs are accessible at api.stability.ai using bearer token authentication.
Solid contracts, transparent operations, and an easy start — typically complete on four or five facets with one clear soft spot.
API Evangelist profiles Stability AI the way a machine reads it — 80 machine-readable artifacts across 18 APIs, 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 — Stability AI scores 60.9/100 (strong), with a separate agent-readiness read of 48/100 (agent ready). 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 Stability AI
Each block below is one kind of artifact we hold for Stability AI. 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 18
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.

Stability AI Outpaint API
Extend the boundaries of an image by generating new content that seamlessly continues the existing scene in any direction.
Stability AI Remove Background API
Automatically detect and remove the background from an image, isolating the foreground subject.
Stability AI Replace Background and Relight API
Replace the background of an image and adjust lighting conditions using AI-powered scene understanding.
Stability AI Search and Recolor API
Find specific objects within an image and recolor them using text descriptions of the target object and desired color.
Stability AI Search and Replace API
Find and replace specific objects within an image using text descriptions of what to search for and what to replace it with.
Stability AI Sketch API
Generate images from hand-drawn sketches or line drawings, guided by a text prompt to fill in details, colors, and textures.
Stability AI Structure API
Generate images guided by the structural composition of a reference image, preserving edges and layout while applying new content from a text prompt.
Stability AI Style API
Generate images that adopt the visual style of a reference image while following a text prompt for content direction.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Security Posture 2
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.
