Stilta

Stilta is an agentic AI platform for high-stakes patent and intellectual property work, backed by a16z, NVIDIA, and Y Combinator (W26). Its agents automate evidence gathering and analysis across 180M+ patents, scientific literature, and archived web content to deliver source-cited invalidity analysis, infringement analysis, and freedom-to-operate assessments for in-house IP teams and intellectual property law firms. The platform markets a defensible first answer in roughly seventeen minutes, fully autonomous, with citations pulled from original documents. Stilta exposes a first-party backend API (api.stilta.com, "Patrona Patent Search Platform API") and a PropelAuth-based OpenID Connect identity surface at auth.stilta.com, but does not publish public developer documentation, an OpenAPI specification, or SDKs at this time. This profile was surfaced as an a16z / Y Combinator portfolio company and enriched from Stilta's public web surface.

Stilta publishes 1 API on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Patents, Intellectual Property, Legal Tech, and Artificial Intelligence.

Stilta’s developer surface includes support, engineering blog, authentication, and 9 more developer resources.

scored 2026-09-08 · rubric v0.20.0
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/stilta: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts.
