Agora

Agora (agora.finance) is a stablecoin infrastructure company building "money and payments for internet markets." Its core product is AUSD, the Agora Dollar — a digital dollar minted 1:1 with USD and backed 100% by cash, overnight repurchase agreements, and short-term U.S. Treasuries. AUSD is an ERC-20 token live across 12+ EVM and Solana networks, with reserves managed by VanEck and State Street. Agora also offers white-labeled stablecoins (launch your own branded token on an ERC-4626 vault architecture over AUSD), instant liquidity (atomic minting against USDC/USDT), and Stable Swaps (a fixed-price, zero-slippage swap protocol for verified users). The Agora Public API (Beta, v0) exposes real-time AUSD supply metrics plus authenticated Accounts, Routes, and Transactions endpoints for mint/redeem flows. Founded by Nick van Eck; backed by General Catalyst, Paradigm, and Dragonfly.

Agora publishes 5 APIs on the APIs.io network, including Accounts API, Auth API, Metrics API, and 2 more. Tagged areas include Company, Fintech, Stablecoins, Digital Dollar, and Payments.

Agora’s developer surface includes documentation, API reference, getting-started guide, engineering blog, signup flow, support, authentication, and 18 more developer resources.

Regulatory Posture applies to this provider. Its tags matched the Payments 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 applies to this provider. This API accepts writes, so it carries 10 points of the composite. It is scored from the published contracts themselves: whether a caller can create-or-update in one call, whether the write accepts a key the caller already holds, and whether the response says which branch ran. Without that, every write needs a search-and-branch in front of it, and the first time that check is skipped a duplicate record is created. Scored against the observed mean rather than raw — a provider at the catalog average is unchanged by this facet, not penalised by it.
The six quality facets above are damped to 75 points between them, because the conditional facet above carries the other 25. That is why each facet's contribution is shown against a damped maximum: raising a quality facet moves the composite by 75% of its nominal weight, not 100%. The full arithmetic is at apis.io/rating/.
Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/. Every facet and dimension name above is a link: it opens that measurement's own page — what it means, the exact checks that feed it, how the whole catalog distributes on it, and the providers at the top of it. This rating is computed from github.com/api-evangelist/agora: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts.
