README
OpenAPI-Search combines multiple OpenAPIs in a fast, organized, and searchable interface.
OpenAPIs are effectively closed if there isn't an accessible way to find and use them. Big commercial API directories such as https://rapidapi.com are currently dominating the search results and the # of APIs indexed, leading many developers to a non-open API gateway. Open Source is far behind.
The best OpenAPI directory as of yet is https://apis.guru but this doesn't even reach 10% of the amount of listed APIs and there is many room for improvement.
The vision of https://openapisearch.com is to make OpenAPIs truly open by making it accessible (easy to find what you're looking for) and improving listing quality.

# Goals
Targeted improvements compared to https://apis.guru:
- Semantic search
- Related APIs
- Programmatic Registry
- Improved WebsiteWishlist:
- E2E Testing of OpenAPIs
- AI Crawler for API Discovery
- AI Crawler to augment OpenAPI Metadata
- Adds authentication + scope info
- Adds useful links
- Adds reviews
- Adds pricing info, ratelimit info, etc## Non-goals
- Create a docs reference website like [readme.com](https://readme.com) (there are many) - for this we're using stoplight now.
- Add weird custom logic that is non-standard to the OpenAPI. Instead, I aim to create a layer on top of openapis to improve the implementation of the standard. I'll use [actionschema](https://actionschema.com) for this.# Sync process
![](sync.drawio.svg)
This is the intended daily synchronisation process which ensures search results are up-to-date and of high quality. Besides filtering out invalid OpenAPIs, OpenAPISearch also generates useful metadata so enhance listing quality.
