Ploy

Ploy is an AI-powered web marketing automation platform that turns a company's marketing website into a growth channel. Founded in 2025 by former Webflow CTO Bryant Chou, backed by Y Combinator and First Round Capital ($27M), Ploy runs AI agents that build and optimize Astro/Tailwind marketing sites, write copy, run technical SEO and answer-engine optimization, identify visiting companies without cookies, launch ad campaigns, and execute reusable multi-step workflows called Ploybooks. Its programmable surface is deliberately CLI-first rather than REST-first: Ploy publishes no OpenAPI and no public API reference, but it does ship a standalone `ploy` CLI binary (workspaces, sites, publishing, variables and secrets, documents, Ploybooks, databases, Code Sync, and design-system inspection) authenticated by workspace-scoped API tokens for headless CI and remote coding agents, an installable Agent Skills catalog (`ploy skills init`), and one public HTTP endpoint — an authenticated inbound webhook ingest at /api/v1/webhook/{endpointSlug} that stores arbitrary JSON and triggers a Ploybook.

Ploy publishes 1 API on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Marketing, Marketing Automation, Artificial Intelligence, and AI Agents.

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

Ploy’s developer surface includes authentication, changelog, CLI, engineering blog, pricing, signup flow, documentation, and 29 more developer resources.

  name: Ploy Webhook Ingest API
  description: The only public HTTP endpoint Ploy documents. An authenticated inbound ingest endpoint that accepts any well-formed
    JSON object (up to 1 MB) from an external system — Clay, Stripe, Zapier, or a custom backend — stores it verbatim with
    its timestamp and source endpoint, and optionally runs a Ploybook with the payload injected as prompt context. Each endpoint
    has its own bearer key, shown once at creation. POST only; 202 on acceptance; documented 400/401/403/404/413/415/429 failures.
    Ploy does not retry inbound events and publishes no idempotency key, so senders must retry on 5xx and 429 with backoff
    and dedupe on their own side.
