About this repository

This is not our API. This repository is an independent, third-party profile of a company's publicly available API surface, maintained by API Evangelist. API Evangelist does not operate, host, resell, or support this company's APIs, and is not affiliated with or endorsed by the company unless stated on the profile.

Where the information came from. Everything here is assembled from material a member of the public can reach with a browser and no credentials — the company's own website, developer portal and documentation, the specifications it publishes for public use (OpenAPI, AsyncAPI, JSON Schema, apis.json, llms.txt and similar), its public repositories, and its public status, pricing and changelog pages. Nothing here is obtained by breaching a system, defeating an access control, or using credentials of any kind.

The rating is an independent assessment. The Kin Score and Agent Readiness rating are independently calculated scores of a company's public API artifacts, produced by API Evangelist against a published rubric. They are not certifications, endorsements, security assessments, or audits, and they score published artifacts — not the quality, safety, or security of the software.

Corrections, re-scores, and removal are free. No partnership, contract, or purchase is required, and you do not need to justify the request.

  • Something wrong? Open an issue on this repository, or email info@apievangelist.com.
  • Published something new? Ask for a re-score and we will re-run the rating.
  • Want the listing taken down? Say so and we will honor it. The profile is reduced to your company name, a factual description, and a link to your own site, and the company is recorded as unrated — never scored zero for having asked.

Response times. Acknowledgement within one business day; removal or restriction within two business days; corrections and re-scores within five business days.

Not from the company, and here with a question? You are welcome here — we would rather be the front line and point you the right way than have a good report go nowhere. What this repository can answer is narrow, though, so it is worth knowing who you are actually looking for:

  • A question about how the API works, an account, billing, or a bug in the service — that is the company's own support, not us. We profile this API; we do not operate it and cannot see your account.
  • A bug in an open-source project we only catalog — file it on that project's own repository. This has happened with a real and correct bug report that reached us instead of the people who could fix it, which helped nobody.
  • Anything about this listing itself — the description, the tags, the rating, a missing or wrong artifact — is ours. Open an issue here.
  • Not sure, or something general about API Evangelist or APIs.io — open an issue on the APIs.io Inbox and we will route it.

This repository contains no software, and we will never ask you to download anything. There is no build, release, installer, or binary here — only text and machine-readable API descriptions, so there is nothing here that can be "corrupt" or need "repairing". Any issue, comment, or email claiming otherwise and offering a download link is not from us and is hostile. Do not follow the link; it is a lure. Report it to GitHub and, if you like, tell us at info@apievangelist.com so we can take it down.

On a security or compliance team? Email info@apievangelist.com with security in the subject line and you will get a person, not a form. We will tell you exactly which public URLs this profile was built from so your team can see the same surface we did, and we will take the listing down on request while you work through it.

Full detail: Where this data comes from

Traefik Labs builds cloud-native traffic and API infrastructure - the open-source Traefik Proxy (an ingress controller, reverse proxy, and load balancer for Kubernetes, Docker, Nomad, ECS, Consul, and bare metal), plus the commercial Traefik Hub product line covering API Gateway, API Management, AI Gateway, and MCP Gateway. The data plane is the same Traefik binary across every tier; the Hub control plane adds GitOps-driven CRDs, a developer portal, multi-cluster dashboards, WAF, advanced auth, and AI safety / agent-governance capabilities.

APIs

Traefik Proxy

Traefik Proxy is the flagship open-source (MIT) cloud-native reverse proxy, ingress controller, and load balancer. It auto-discovers services from Kubernetes (Ingress, Gateway API, CRD), Docker, Docker Swarm, Nomad, Amazon ECS, Consul, file, and HTTP providers, and ships with native ACME (Let's Encrypt) certificate provisioning, HTTP/2, HTTP/3, gRPC, WebSockets, TCP, UDP, an extensible middleware chain, and a built-in dashboard.

Properties

Traefik Proxy REST API

The Traefik Proxy REST API exposes runtime configuration and state for every router, service, middleware, and entry point in a running Traefik instance, plus version metadata, raw dynamic configuration, and an anonymized support-dump archive for vendor troubleshooting. Read-only; must be enabled in static configuration and gated behind auth before being exposed.

  • Management
  • Observability
  • REST

Properties

Traefik Ping API

Lightweight liveness probe at /ping that returns HTTP 200 with body "OK" when the Traefik process is alive. Usually mounted on a dedicated entry point for container-orchestrator liveness checks.

Tags

  • Health Check
  • Liveness
  • Monitoring
  • Operations

Properties

Traefik Dashboard

Built-in single-page web UI rendering routers, services, middlewares, entry points, providers, version, and TLS configuration in real time. Shares the API handler; exposed at /dashboard/ (trailing slash required).

Properties

Traefik Hub API Gateway

Commercial Kubernetes-native API gateway built on Traefik Proxy. Adds a native WAF (claimed 23x faster than alternatives), advanced authentication (LDAP, JWT, HMAC, OAuth2, OIDC, OPA), HashiCorp Vault integration, distributed Let's Encrypt, multi-cluster management, and FIPS 140-2 compliance. Pricing is contract-based; a 30-day free trial is offered.

Properties

Traefik Hub API Management

Kubernetes-native API management on top of the Hub API Gateway. Surfaces a declarative CRD set - API, APIVersion, APIBundle, APIPlan, APIPortal, APICatalogItem, ManagedSubscription - plus a multi-cluster developer portal, OpenAPI rendering, GitOps configuration linter, and built-in identity provider integration.

Properties

Traefik AI Gateway

Self-hosted Kubernetes-native gateway for LLM traffic. OpenAI-compatible unified API in front of OpenAI, Anthropic, Azure OpenAI, AWS Bedrock, Cohere, Gemini, Mistral, Ollama, and self-hosted models. Built-in jailbreak detection (NVIDIA Safety NIMs), PII redaction (Presidio, 35+ recognizers), 22+ content-filter categories, semantic caching (vendor-claimed 40-70% cost reduction), identity-based routing, and OpenTelemetry token/cost metrics.
