Cogniac

Cogniac is a low-code enterprise AI computer-vision platform that turns visual data from cameras and image/video streams into automated visual inspection and defect detection across manufacturing, transportation, logistics, and government operations. Its cloud platform (CloudCore) exposes a multi-tenant public REST API at api.cogniac.io covering tenants, applications (classification, box/point detection, http_input, camera_capture, and integration types), subjects, media, detections, on-premise EdgeFlow GPU appliances, cloud-hosted CloudFlow, network cameras, deployment groups, and workflows. Cogniac ships an official Python SDK and CLI (plus an archived C# SDK) and a provider-published agent skill, and is SOC 2 compliant.

Cogniac is listed with 1 API on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Computer Vision, Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, and Visual Inspection.

Cogniac’s developer surface includes documentation, API reference, getting-started guide, support, engineering blog, CLI, authentication, and 16 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 could not be measured. We hold no machine-readable contract for this provider to read, so there is nothing to measure a write surface against. Excluded rather than scored zero: never-measured and measured-empty are different facts. Publishing an OpenAPI is what makes this facet — and several others — scorable at all.

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/.

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/cogniac: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts.
