Toolhouse

Toolhouse is a Backend-as-a-Service platform for building, deploying, and managing "AI workers" (Toolhouse's current product noun, used interchangeably with "AI agents"). The homepage frames the value proposition as "Turn your AI chats into affordable and reliable AI workers that do work while you're busy," and the docs define a worker as "a system that carries out a task with three components: a trigger, a process that may include specialized skills, and tools or systems it can connect to." Builders describe a task in plain language in the Agent Editor and ship a worker to production; developers can do the same programmatically via SDKs. Every worker is automatically wired into Toolhouse's pre-integrated capabilities, including web and social media search, scraping, Toolhouse RAG, persistent memory, the Virtual Computer code-execution sandbox, image generation/editing and vision, document parsing, file download, and MCP Discovery for connecting to thousands of MCP servers at runtime. The platform exposes a Workers API (agents.toolhouse.ai) for invoking deployed workers over REST with text and NDJSON streaming and stateful conversation continuity (X-Toolhouse-Run-ID), a Platform API for full worker and run lifecycle management, scheduling (10-minute minimum cadence), metrics, monetization, and integrations, plus no-code workflow integration through Zapier and Toolhouse n8n Nodes. Toolhouse runs on a broad model substrate including OpenAI, Anthropic, Together AI, Groq, and NVIDIA model offerings. The current public pricing surface is Business ($500/mo, 25,000 credits, 50 workers), Business Max ($1,200/mo, 80,000 credits, 500 workers), and custom Enterprise — all plans include "free unlimited tokens" and a 14-day free trial. Toolhouse reports 7,000+ teams on the platform and 40+ integrations and is backed by NextGenerationEU funding.

Solid contracts, transparent operations, and an easy start — typically complete on four or five facets with one clear soft spot.

Kin Score

API Evangelist profiles Toolhouse the way a machine reads it — 84 machine-readable artifacts across 8 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 — Toolhouse scores 64.4/100 (strong), with a separate agent-readiness read of 60/100 (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 Toolhouse

Each block below is one kind of artifact we hold for Toolhouse. 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 8

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.

Toolhouse Workers API

The Toolhouse Workers API (historically the "Agents API") enables HTTP execution of any deployed Toolhouse worker. Workers defined via the Agent Editor or as code are reachable ...

Toolhouse Agent Runs API

The Agent Runs API from Toolhouse — 4 operation(s) for agent runs.

Toolhouse API Keys API

The API Keys API from Toolhouse — 3 operation(s) for api keys.

Toolhouse Backoffice API

The Backoffice API from Toolhouse — 15 operation(s) for backoffice.

Toolhouse Logs API

The Logs API from Toolhouse — 2 operation(s) for logs.

Toolhouse Metrics API

The Metrics API from Toolhouse — 4 operation(s) for metrics.

Toolhouse SDK API API

The SDK API API from Toolhouse — 20 operation(s) for sdk api.

Toolhouse User API API

The User API API from Toolhouse — 58 operation(s) for user api.

MCP Servers 1

Model Context Protocol servers expose these APIs directly to AI agents. We profile them because agent-native access is the fastest-growing way this provider's capabilities actually get used.

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.

FinOps 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.

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.

Examples 2

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 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.
