Qualified APIs for autonomous AI agents.

TESSERA audits and qualifies APIs against GDPR, EU AI Act and eIDAS standards. One trusted registry — so your agents always consume compliant, verified services.

TESSERA Registry — API Catalogue showing qualified APIs with compliance badges

Qualified in three steps

1

Submit your API

API publishers submit their technical documentation, GDPR policy and endpoint specs via our structured intake form — 45 questions across 5 compliance domains.

2

Automated + Legal Audit

Our crawler tests endpoints in real time. A partner legal expert reviews documentation. High-risk APIs under EU AI Act Annex III receive a full security audit.

3

Publish & Monitor

The API is published with its qualification level (L1/L2/L3). Continuous monthly monitoring — immediate alert if any compliance drift is detected.
