Habitus Associates Co., Ltd. is the company behind Artue (artue.io), an AI-powered online marketplace for original artworks by Korean and international artists. Artue lets collectors discover, purchase, and resell paintings, photography, sculptures, and prints, with natural-language search that finds works by mood, color, style, room type, or budget. The platform is explicitly agent-native: it publishes an llms.txt and ships a hosted Model Context Protocol (MCP) server so AI assistants such as Claude and ChatGPT can search its collection directly. Backed by 500 Global and surfaced into the API Evangelist network from that portfolio.
Artue is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Art, Marketplace, E-Commerce, and Artificial Intelligence.
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/.
