**APIs profiled:** 5

Styra is the company that created Open Policy Agent (OPA), the Cloud Native Computing Foundation graduated policy engine, and commercialized it as Enterprise OPA and Styra DAS (Declarative Authorization Service) for policy-as-code authorization across Kubernetes, microservices, APIs, and data. Styra was acquired by Akamai in December 2024; the styra.com and docs.styra.com properties no longer resolve, but OPA remains the de facto standard for cloud-native authorization and the open-source technical surface (GitHub, published SDKs, the OpenAPI spec, and gRPC protobufs) is active. The Enterprise OPA / OPA REST API evaluates Rego policy decisions, batch decisions, and partial-evaluation "data filtering" that compiles authorization into UCAST or SQL conditions. Backed originally by Accel and Battery Ventures.
