Akool

Akool is a generative AI platform for video and imagery - talking avatars, talking photos, face swap, video translation with lip-sync, background change, image generation, and a real-time streaming (live) avatar product. The Akool OpenAPI exposes these tools as an HTTPS REST API under https://openapi.akool.com, authenticated with a Bearer token minted from a clientId / clientSecret pair (or a direct x-api-key). Generation is asynchronous - callers create a task, then poll by id or receive an encrypted webhook callback when the task completes. The Live Avatar product opens a real-time session whose media is carried over a third-party WebRTC transport (Agora, LiveKit, or TRTC).

Akool publishes 7 APIs on the APIs.io network, including Authentication API, Face Swap API, Image Generation API, and 4 more. Tagged areas include AI Avatars, Video Generation, AI Video, Face Swap, and Generative AI.

Akool’s developer surface includes authentication, documentation, engineering blog, and 7 more developer resources.

Regulatory Posture applies to this provider. Its tags matched the Horizontal (data, software, accessibility, platform) 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/akool: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts.
