Agentic API Economy
The Agentic
Trust Layer.
You wouldn't let a developer access production APIs without governance. Why would you let an AI agent?
The Problem
AI agents are consuming APIs at scale—autonomously discovering, authenticating, and calling endpoints without human oversight. Without governance, every agent is an unaudited, unmetered, uncontrolled consumer with access to your most critical systems.
The Answer
Apiway already governs the full API lifecycle—discovery, subscriptions, credentials, rate limiting, compliance, and approval flows. AI agents are just the next class of consumer. The governance layer is already built.
Agent Lifecycle
Every AI agent follows the same governed path as any other consumer. No shortcuts. No shadow access. Full auditability from discovery to consumption.
Built-In Capabilities
Everything Agents Need. Already Built.
API Economy Marketplace
Agents browse the same marketplace as human consumers. APIs flagged for external or partner access are discoverable across tenant boundaries—quality-assured and governance-approved.
Credentials & Entitlements
Every agent receives scoped credentials with explicit entitlements. No over-provisioned access. No shared keys. Each agent identity is managed, tracked, and revocable.
Rate Limiting & SLA
Agents can generate thousands of calls per minute. The gateway enforces rate limits, SLA capacity planning auto-rejects subscriptions that exceed producer throughput. No runaway consumption.
Governance Flows
Configurable approval workflows gate agent access. Auto-approve for low-risk APIs, multi-stage sign-off for sensitive endpoints. The same governance humans go through—applied to machines.
Compliance & Trust
Runtime compliance scoring validates every request and response against the spec. Design recommendations ensure API quality. For autonomous consumers, quality is the only trust signal that matters.
MCP Server Support
MCP servers are managed as another API surface. Publish the specification, deploy through the gateway, subscribe agent consumers. The full product lifecycle applied to the Model Context Protocol.
Protocol Sovereignty
The Gateway for
Model Context.
MCP servers are the new "High-Velocity" interface. Apiway governs the **Model Context Protocol** by treating your local tools and data stores as first-class API products—audited, metered, and shielded.
Schema Enforcement
Validate every Agent-to-Model request against your **Golden Skeleton**. Block hallucinated tool calls before they reach your internal event stores.
Contextual Auditing
Full traceability of "Agentic Intent." Capture the context of why an LLM requested specific data—satisfying mandatory **Article 12 Reasoning Audits**.
