info:
  title: Orthogonal Discovery API
  description: Orthogonal is a unified API and payment layer that lets AI agents discover, access, and pay for external services from a single catalog of 40+ third-party APIs. Agents describe what they need in natural language; Orthogonal returns the right service and proxies the call, metering a per-call price. This OpenAPI description was GENERATED from the public developer documentation at https://docs.orthogonal.com (no first-party OpenAPI is published) and captures the documented Discovery and Run surface. Endpoint shapes are faithful to the docs; verify against the live API before code generation.
