Dedalus Labs

Dedalus Labs builds infrastructure for AI agents. It runs two production APIs: the Dedalus Agents API, an OpenAI-compatible MCP gateway that lets you mix and match any model from any provider with tools drawn from the Dedalus MCP marketplace (chat completions, embeddings, audio, images, and OCR through one endpoint); and Dedalus Cloud Services (Dedalus Machines), persistent Linux VMs for agents that start in under a second, preserve their filesystem and memory across sleep/wake, and bill per second with no idle tax. Both APIs authenticate with a Dedalus API key (Bearer or x-api-key), support idempotent mutations, and ship official SDKs in TypeScript, Python, and Go plus a CLI and Terraform provider. Dedalus is a portfolio company of Kindred Ventures.

Dedalus Labs publishes 13 API contracts indexed on the APIs.io network, including Dedalus API, Health API, Machine Lifecycle API, and 10 more. Tagged areas include Company, Artificial Intelligence, Agents, MCP, and LLM.

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

Dedalus Labs’ developer surface includes documentation, API reference, getting-started guide, support, engineering blog, pricing, signup flow, and 32 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/dedaluslabs: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts.
