Scaled Cognition

aid: scaled-cognition
name: Scaled Cognition
description: Scaled Cognition is a Mountain View, California AI model lab and enterprise platform company behind APT-1, the
  Agentic Pretrained Transformer — a frontier model the company says is pretrained on action prediction rather than token
  prediction and purpose-built for enterprise customer-experience agents. The commercial surface is an Agent Builder platform
  (Studio, a Python APT SDK, AgentTwin transcript-to-agent conversion, GenAPI simulation, Agent Evaluator, Agent Monitor and
  Agent Defender) exposed to customers through a stateless RESTful API that can run in Scaled Cognition's SOC 2 Type II cloud,
  in a customer VPC, or on-premises. Founded by Dan Roth (CEO), Dan Klein (CTO, UC Berkeley) and Damon Pender (CFO), the team
  previously built Semantic Machines, acquired by Microsoft in 2018. Backed by Khosla Ventures with a Genesys partnership.
  No public developer portal, API reference, or machine-readable contract is published — the platform API and its OpenAPI
  live behind the Studio login.

  description: 'The stateless RESTful API behind the Scaled Cognition Agent Builder platform, used to author, simulate, deploy
    and monitor APT-1 agents. Scaled Cognition describes the interface publicly as an open, vendor-agnostic, stateless REST
    API with no-code, low-code and Python SDK deployment options, but publishes no public reference or machine-readable contract:
    the platform OpenAPI at https://studio.scaledcognition.com/api/openapi.json answers 401 {"error":"Not authenticated."}
    to an anonymous client, and https://api.scaledcognition.com/ answers 403 from an AWS ELB.'

  detail: Scaled Cognition's Agent Builder API demonstrably ships an OpenAPI — https://studio.scaledcognition.com/api/openapi.json
    answers 401 {"error":"Not authenticated."} rather than 404 — but every reference path on that host 307-redirects to /login,
    docs.scaledcognition.com does not resolve, api.scaledcognition.com 403s every anonymous request from an AWS ELB, and the
    marketing site has no developer section at all, so the contract is readable only by an existing tenant.
