Light

Light is an agentic accounting and financial-operations platform positioned as an alternative to traditional ERPs and fragmented finance stacks. It combines a multi-entity general ledger and consolidation engine with accounts payable, accounts receivable, spend management and corporate cards, contracts and subscription billing, purchase orders and expense reimbursement. The Light API is a REST API over HTTPS returning camelCase JSON, covering 183 operations across 28 resource groups — invoice payables and receivables, credit notes, customer credits, journal entries, ledger accounts, bank accounts and transactions, cards and card transactions, contracts, purchase orders, products, vendors, customers and users. Authentication is either an API key sent as HTTP Basic or an OAuth 2.0 access token, access is governed by the same roles as user accounts, and writes on 14 operations accept an X-Idempotency-Key header. Light also publishes a live Model Context Protocol server over its documentation and markets a Claude MCP integration against the live ledger.

Light publishes 28 APIs on the APIs.io network, including Authorization API, v1 - Accounting Documents API, v1 - Attachments API, and 25 more. Tagged areas include Accounting, Finance, ERP, Accounts Payable, and Accounts Receivable.

Light’s developer surface includes documentation, API reference, getting-started guide, support, engineering blog, signup flow, authentication, and 20 more developer resources.

Regulatory Posture applies to this provider. Its tags matched the Payments 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.

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/. This rating is computed from github.com/api-evangelist/light: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts. Want it done for you? Prioritized profiling — $2,500 →
