Factory

Factory is an agent-native software development platform whose Droids act as autonomous AI engineers that plan, execute, and maintain code work across CLI, desktop app, IDE plugins, and cloud. The product is B2B sales-led with a public Droid SDK (TypeScript), Droid Exec for CI/CD, a plugin marketplace, and MCP support. No public REST API surface is documented as of May 2026 - integration happens through the Droid CLI, SDK, and Droid GitHub Action.

Factory publishes 3 APIs on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Artificial Intelligence, Agents, Autonomous, Developer Tools, and Software Engineering.

Factory’s developer surface includes developer portal, signup flow, documentation, pricing, engineering blog, code examples, and 23 more developer resources.

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.

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/factory-ai: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts. Submit an artifact on GitHub — free → Manage your own listing — the Influence plan, $499/mo →
