Trieve (Devflow, Inc.) is an open-source, all-in-one search, recommendations, RAG, and analytics platform delivered as a REST API. The backend is written in Rust (Actix-web) and exposes endpoints for managing organizations, datasets, chunks, chunk groups, files, search, topics / messages (LLM chat), web crawls, events, analytics, and experiments. Trieve Cloud is hosted at api.trieve.ai; the same server can be self-hosted from the devflowinc/trieve repository. Official SDKs are published for TypeScript and Python.
Trieve publishes 21 API contracts indexed on the APIs.io network, including Chunk API, Dataset API, File API, and 18 more. Tagged areas include Search, RAG, Vector Search, Hybrid Search, and Recommendations.
The Trieve catalog on APIs.io includes 1 Spectral governance ruleset.
Trieve’s developer surface includes authentication, documentation, GitHub presence, pricing, engineering blog, and 14 more developer resources.
Regulatory Posture applies to this provider. Its tags matched the
Horizontal (data, software, accessibility, platform) regime, so
Regulatory Posture carries 15 points of the composite.
If this regime is wrong for your business, say so on your
provider repo — the
applicability map is public and we will correct it.
Open Source Surface applies to this provider. This product is open source and we
read its repository directly, so Open Source Surface carries
10 points of the composite. It is scored from what the repository actually
publishes — a security policy, a contribution guide, a release history, a code of conduct — read live from the
provider rather than inferred from our own catalog pointers.
This facet adds; nothing was taken away to make room for it. An open-source project is not excused from
the commercial facets, because exemption would strip it of the points it does earn.
If we have the wrong repository, or this product is not open source, say so on your
provider repo and we
will drop the facet rather than have you publish against it.
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.
The six quality facets above are damped to 65 points between them,
because both conditional facets apply and carry
35 points together. That is why each facet's contribution is shown against a damped
maximum: raising a quality facet moves the composite by 65% of its nominal
weight, not 100%. The full arithmetic is at apis.io/rating/.

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

Markets this provider is in provisional
The Kin Score Market layer reads a provider inside its market:
its position, and how deep its integrations go. Depth is only comparable within a position. Provisional and unweighted:
not part of the Kin Score or agent readiness.
Registered MCP server and declares compatibility are report only — not weighted.
Undeclared means we found nothing we can read, so there is no number: we never infer integrations.
Discovery needs no key. Ratings and market analysis are Pro.
