Story Protocol

Story Protocol is a purpose-built EVM Layer 1 blockchain for onchain intellectual property (the "IP blockchain"), powered by Proof of Creativity, built by Pip Labs and backed by a16z. Its public REST API (api.storyapis.com) is a read-only indexer that exposes IP assets, collections, license terms, license templates and tokens, minting fees, disputes, IP groups, royalties, protocol modules, permissions, and transactions across Story mainnet (chain 1514) and the Aeneid testnet (chain 1315). Authentication is an X-Api-Key header plus an X-Chain network selector; official TypeScript and Python SDKs wrap both the API and the onchain protocol.

Story Protocol publishes 13 APIs on the APIs.io network, including Collections API, Disputes API, IPAssets API, and 10 more. Tagged areas include Company, Blockchain, Intellectual Property, Licensing, and Royalties.

Story Protocol’s developer surface includes documentation, API reference, getting-started guide, authentication, changelog, sandbox, and 16 more developer resources.

Create-or-Update Ergonomics applies to this provider. This API accepts writes, so it carries 10 points of the composite. It is scored from the published contracts themselves: whether a caller can create-or-update in one call, whether the write accepts a key the caller already holds, and whether the response says which branch ran. Without that, every write needs a search-and-branch in front of it, and the first time that check is skipped a duplicate record is created. Scored against the observed mean rather than raw — a provider at the catalog average is unchanged by this facet, not penalised by it.

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/story-protocol: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts.
