Your API wasn't built for the AI era

AI is generating more code than ever — but it's getting your API wrong.

Agents hallucinate endpoints, recommend competitors, and generate broken integrations. Your docs weren't designed for how AI reads them.

The result? Lost developer adoption, more support tickets, and an API that's invisible to the tools developers actually use.

Generating code...

Add Acme payment processing to my checkout flow

AI

Sure! Here's the Acme integration:

import Acme from 'acme'

const acme = new Acme(key)

// Create a charge

const charge = await acme

.charges.create({

amount: 2000,

currency: 'usd',

})

Deprecated API

charges.create was deprecated in 2022. Use PaymentIntents instead.

You might also try competitor-payments which has better docs...

Frequently asked questions

Everything you need to know about Generative Engine Optimization and how Sapient helps your API get recommended by AI.

Got questions?

What is Generative Engine Optimization (GEO)?

GEO is like SEO, but for AI. Just as SEO helps websites rank on Google, GEO helps your API get recommended when developers use tools like Cursor, Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, and other AI coding assistants.

How does the GEO Score work?

Your GEO Score is a 0-100 rating based on five dimensions: Documentation Quality, Schema Clarity, Error Handling, Example Coverage, and Agent Compatibility. Higher scores mean AI is more likely to correctly recommend and implement your API.

Which AI does Sapient support?

Sapient optimizes for all major AI including Cursor, Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, Windsurf, Amazon Q, Gemini, OpenAI Codex, and Cline — with more being added regularly.

How long does it take to improve my score?

Many improvements take effect within days. Our Fix Kit provides ready-to-use templates and code that you can implement immediately. The Monitor dashboard tracks your progress in real time so you can see results as they happen.
