API Design
Centralise design, apply your style guide and automate from the outset. Avoid technical debt and save time from the very first click
API Design in APIQuality
Start before you have your OpenAPI
Design APIs collaboratively and securely
APIQuality transforms your initial ideas into production-ready designs, without leaving your repository, without relying on vendors, and with traceability from the first click.
- Most API designs still start in unstructured documents that are difficult to maintain.
- APIQuality allows you to create sketches of your APIs before you have a formal specification, all within a secure, collaborative, and version-ready interface.
- Forget about Excel spreadsheets. Digitise your drafts, collaborate in real time, and transform your design into an OpenAPI without losing control.
Govern your APIs
The only real-time style guide editor
APIQuality turns your style guide into a living layer of control, applied automatically and evolving with your teams.
- Consistency in your APIs cannot depend on the judgement of each team.
- APIQuality automatically applies your organisation’s rules, from names to security headers, with real-time validation, blocking logic, and version control.
- Each team can have its own guide. Every API complies with standards. All without manual effort.
Reuse and scale from design
Scale faster with a reusable and validated catalogue
APIQuality centralises your key API Design components in a smart, validated and constantly updated catalogue so that scaling up does not mean starting from scratch.
- Avoid reinventing the wheel with every project.
- With APIQuality, you can build and maintain a catalogue of validated models, components, and endpoints that are ready to reuse.
- From design to deployment, automatically generate mocks, code bases, or clients, accelerating the lifecycle of your APIs and reducing errors.

Easy integration with the best API Design tools
Spectral
Automatic OpenAPI linting with custom rules. Detects style or definition errors before merging.
APIQuality automatically runs Spectral on every change to the OpenAPI definition, without the need for additional configuration.
You receive immediate feedback on style and convention errors, avoiding manual reviews and ensuring consistency from the outset.
Redocly
Generate clear and navigable documentation for your APIs. Compatible with corporate style guides.
APIQuality uses Redocly to automatically generate visual documentation from your OpenAPI definitions at every stage of the lifecycle.
You can clearly and navigably visualise the structure of your API, instantly detect errors, and reduce the time spent on manual documentation.
OpenAPI Diff
Compare versions of an API to detect breaking changes and validate backward compatibility.
APIQuality incorporates OpenAPI Diff to compare versions of your specifications and automatically detect any changes, including those that break compatibility.
Avoid unexpected regressions, ensure backward compatibility, and document changes between versions without manual effort.
Sonarqube
Static analysis tailored to API design. Identifies quality and security issues in your definition.
APIQuality performs quality and security analyses on your OpenAPI definitions using specific rules integrated into SonarQube and the official APIAddicts plugin.
Detect errors, security risks, and bad practices from the design stage, without waiting for the code. Improve the quality of your APIs from the first commit.
