Cognizant Technology Solutions

Cognizant Technology Solutions is a multinational information technology services and consulting company that provides digital, technology, consulting, and operations services to clients worldwide. Cognizant publishes no hosted, general-purpose commercial API and operates no developer portal - developer.cognizant.com and api.cognizant.com do not resolve. It does, however, publish a real machine-readable API contract: Cognizant AI Lab releases Neuro SAN (Neuro AI System of Agent Networks), an Apache-2.0 multi-agent orchestration framework whose agent service ships four .proto files defining two gRPC services, a generated OpenAPI 3.0.3 document the running server publishes at /api/v1/docs, and an MCP 2025-06-18 endpoint that exposes each public agent network as a callable tool. The framework is self-hosted - Cognizant ships the software and the operator runs the server - so there is no Cognizant-operated endpoint, no pricing, and no rate limit to publish. Six first-party Python packages are on PyPI, led by neuro-san (0.7.0, 149 releases, actively developed). The commercial Neuro AI platform family (Neuro AI Decisioning, Neuro AI Enterprise Core, Neuro AI Engineering, Neuro AI for IT Operations) and other delivered platforms are engaged through consulting rather than self-service APIs.

Cognizant Technology Solutions publishes 1 API on the APIs.io network: Cognizant Neuro SAN Agent Service. Tagged areas include AI Platform, Consulting, Digital Transformation, IT Services, and Multi-Agent.

Cognizant Technology Solutions’ developer surface includes GitHub presence, product news, engineering blog, CLI, changelog, documentation, getting-started guide, and 25 more developer resources.

Kin Score

Kin Score Kin Score How this is scored →
scored 2026-09-08 · rubric v0.20.0
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.
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/cognizant-technology: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts.

description: 'Cognizant Technology Solutions is a multinational information technology services and consulting company that
  provides digital, technology, consulting, and operations services to clients worldwide. Cognizant publishes no hosted, general-purpose
  commercial API and operates no developer portal - developer.cognizant.com and api.cognizant.com do not resolve. It does,
  however, publish a real machine-readable API contract: Cognizant AI Lab releases Neuro SAN (Neuro AI System of Agent Networks),
  an Apache-2.0 multi-agent orchestration framework whose agent service ships four .proto files defining two gRPC services,
  a generated OpenAPI 3.0.3 document the running server publishes at /api/v1/docs, and an MCP 2025-06-18 endpoint that exposes
  each public agent network as a callable tool. The framework is self-hosted - Cognizant ships the software and the operator

  description: 'The HTTP/gRPC/MCP service surface of Neuro SAN (Neuro AI System of Agent Networks), the open-source multi-agent
    orchestration framework published by Cognizant AI Lab under Apache-2.0. Four operations: list the agent networks a deployment
    exposes, read a network''s function description and private sly_data schemas, inspect its internal connectivity, and hold
    a streaming conversation with it. The same core is projected three ways - a gRPC service defined in four .proto files,
    a REST projection generated from those protos via google.api.http annotations and published by the running server at /api/v1/docs,
    and an MCP 2025-06-18 endpoint that exposes each public agent network as a callable tool. Self-hosted: Cognizant publishes
    the software, the operator runs the server.'

  x-baseurl-note: 'TEMPLATED ON PURPOSE - do not "repair" this into a concrete Cognizant hostname. Neuro SAN is self-hosted
    software: Cognizant publishes the framework and the operator runs the server, so there is no vendor-operated API host.
    The published OpenAPI carries no servers[] block at all, and the provider''s own documented examples use http://localhost:8080
    after the operator starts server_main_loop. repair-api-bases.py returns verdict "missing" here because no source names
    a host; the docs were read and they genuinely do not state one, because none exists. The same templated server is recorded
    in overlays/cognizant-technology-neuro-san-agent-service-overlay.yaml rather than written into the verbatim spec.'
