🦞 APIClaw

The API layer for AI agents. 18 providers → 1000s of capabilities. Workspace → Dashboard → Ship.

The Platform

apiclaw.com — Your workspace for API-powered agents.

One mcp-install connects your agent to all of it.

Quick Start

No signup required — just install and use.

# Install
npx @nordsym/apiclaw mcp-install

# Restart your AI assistant
# Immediately use any API (10 calls/week)

# Optional: Register for 50 calls/week
register_owner({ email: "you@example.com" })

That's it. All 18 Direct Call providers work instantly through NordSym's infrastructure. Your API calls are proxied, authenticated, and rate-limited automatically.

Usage Limits:

• Anonymous: 10 calls/week (no registration)

• Registered: 50 calls/week (5x more)

Start calling APIs immediately. No setup, no API keys, no configuration.

How It Works

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "apiclaw": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@nordsym/apiclaw"]
    }
  }
}

1. Your agent launches APIClaw as an MCP server

2. APIClaw exposes APIs as callable tools

3. Agent calls send_sms, generate_image, search_web

4. APIClaw handles auth, rate limits, execution

5. Results flow back to the agent

Proxy Architecture

All 18 Direct Call providers work through NordSym's infrastructure.

You don't manage API keys. You don't configure auth. You don't worry about rate limits.

How it works:

• Your API calls go through NordSym's proxy

• We handle authentication with each provider

• Usage is tracked and limited (fair use)

• 10 calls/week anonymous, 50 with registration

• No setup required — just install and use

What you get:

• Instant access to 18 premium APIs

• No API key management

• Automatic rate limiting

• Usage analytics in your workspace

• Production-ready from day one

Want higher limits? Upgrade at apiclaw.com or contact us.

Dry-Run Mode

Test without making real API calls.

call_api({
  provider: "46elks",
  action: "send_sms",
  params: { to: "+46701234567", message: "Test" },
  dry_run: true
})

Returns the exact request that would be sent, with mock response data.
