APIClarity

APIClarity is an open source (Apache-2.0) API security and observability tool that captures API traffic in a Kubernetes environment, reconstructs OpenAPI specifications from what it observes, and detects shadow APIs, zombie APIs, specification drift and broken function-level authorization. It integrates with Istio, Kong, Tyk, Kuma, a tap DaemonSet and an OpenTelemetry Collector as traffic sources, and ships as a Helm chart you deploy into your own cluster — there is no hosted service, no vendor account and no vendor API host. It was part of the OpenClarity project. APIClarity has reached end of life: the source repository was archived read-only by its owner on 2026-05-29, the last release was v0.14.5 on 2023-05-05, and both project websites (openclarity.io and apiclarity.io) now return HTTP 404. The source, the eleven published specifications, the Helm chart repository and the container images all remain publicly readable, which is what this profile is built from.

APIClarity publishes 21 APIs on the APIs.io network, including Control API, Features API, API Events API, and 18 more. Tagged areas include API Observability, API Security, API Traffic Analysis, Cisco, and Kubernetes.

The APIClarity catalog on APIs.io includes 1 event-driven AsyncAPI specification.

APIClarity’s developer surface includes changelog, sandbox, getting-started guide, API reference, support, authentication, documentation, and 34 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/apiclarity: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts.
