Abortion Policy API

The Abortion Policy API provides up-to-date information on US state abortion policies that can be integrated into online abortion resources. The API consolidates abortion laws into one database across four data tables covering gestational limits, insurance coverage, minors restrictions, and waiting periods. Data is accessible by US state name or zip code. The project is co-led by Patient Forward and is fiscally sponsored by NEO Philanthropy.

Abortion Policy API is listed with 4 APIs on the APIs.io network, including Gestational Limits API, Insurance Coverage API, Minors API, and 1 more. Tagged areas include Abortion, Policies, Healthcare, and Government.

The Abortion Policy API catalog on APIs.io includes 1 JSON-LD context and 2 Spectral governance rulesets.

Abortion Policy API’s developer surface includes authentication, getting-started guide, API reference, support, and 13 more developer resources.

Regulatory Posture applies to this provider. Its tags matched the Health regime, so Regulatory Posture carries 15 points of the composite. If this regime is wrong for your business, say so on your provider repo — the applicability map is public and we will correct it.

Create-or-Update Ergonomics does not apply to this provider. The published contracts declare no write operations, and a read-only API cannot create-or-update. The facet is excluded from this provider's denominator entirely — not scored zero. A reference or data API is not deficient for being unable to upsert.

The six quality facets above are damped to 85 points between them, because the conditional facet above carries the other 15. That is why each facet's contribution is shown against a damped maximum: raising a quality facet moves the composite by 85% of its nominal weight, not 100%. The full arithmetic is at apis.io/rating/.

Agent readiness — checks not met, largest first (exact, from this profile):
