## Overview

**Grade C · 59.9/100 · rank #675 of 1510 · #22 in Model APIs & inference · not agent-ready · confidence medium**


## Assessment

Eden AI gives one OpenAI-compatible key to about 1,000 models and expert models such as OCR, speech and translation, with an EU-only endpoint, per-key guardrails and no stored content by default. No status page, SLA or changelog was found, and its own pages disagree on the default rate limit.

## Facts

## Score breakdown (methodology v0.7, October 2026 research run)

Assessed 2026-11-06 from public evidence against the published checklist (https://www.anchorterminal.com/benchmark/#checklist). Confidence: medium. Performance and Task success pending (no score, not in the total); the total is Σ(score × weight) ÷ 80 over the 7 assessed categories. "This run" is each category's share of the 100 points.

| Category | Weight | This run | Score (0–100) | Points |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Reliability | 16% | 20 | 33 | 6.6 |
| Performance | 10% | pending | pending | n/a |
| Schema & documentation | 13% | 16.2 | 81 | 13.2 |
| Agent ergonomics | 13% | 16.2 | 75 | 12.2 |
| Security & auth | 14% | 17.5 | 82 | 14.3 |
| Payments & pricing | 10% | 12.5 | 30 | 3.8 |
| Task success | 10% | pending | pending | n/a |
| Maintenance & community | 7% | 8.8 | 58 | 5.1 |
| Transparency & trust (editorial 65, provenance 44) | 7% | 8.8 | 55 | 4.8 |
| Negative events | up to −15 | up to −15 | none recorded | 0 |
| **Total** | | | | **59.9 → C** |

### Why each score

- Reliability 33 (checked 2026-11-06): Router, read on the hosted lines. No status page is linked from the site or docs, and status.edenai.co didn't resolve for us on 6 November 2026 (0). No incident history to read (5). The rate-limits page gives 10 requests a second per account, shared across keys, while the plans page gives 7 a second, raisable to 15, so the figure is documented but inconsistent (10). Fallback retries the next model or provider on a 429 or error inside one request, but no client-facing 429 or Retry-After guidance was found (8). No SLA published; 'Dedicated support & SLA' is listed only for the custom Advanced plan, and the pricing page's '99.99%' uptime is a claim without a status page behind it (0). The v3 API is GA (10). 0+5+10+8+0+10 = 33.
- Performance: Pending. Latency is measured per call by our probes, which haven't run yet, so this run doesn't score it. Its weight is shared across the assessed categories until the first probe window closes.
- Schema & documentation 81 (checked 2026-11-06): Router, scored on the API lines. OpenAPI 3.1 document for v3 (version 3.0.0, 46 paths) at api.edenai.run/v3/docs/openapi.json, plus a management API spec (25). llms.txt on the site and in the docs, llms-full.txt and Markdown pages (10). llms.txt states when to use Eden AI and when not to, and the docs separate chat models from expert models (17). Requests follow the OpenAI shape, and expert-model tools on the MCP server carry JSON Schema inputs (12). Examples throughout, but the spec documents only 200, 201, 202, 302 and 422, while llms.txt names 401 and 451 for region refusals (10). Versioned /v3 path, but no public changelog was found (7). 25+10+17+12+10+7 = 81.
- Agent ergonomics 75 (checked 2026-11-06): Router, read on the model lines. Chat completions, Responses and an Anthropic Messages route in the OpenAI shape, with tool calling depending on the routed model (14 of 20) and structured output likewise (10 of 15). Caching is named in the terms as part of the service, without a per-model price table we read (8 of 15). Context depends on the model; the keyless /v3/models catalogue lists capabilities, prices and regions per model so an agent can choose (12 of 15). A Batches API (10 of 10). No SDK of its own; the docs use the OpenAI Python and TypeScript SDKs, and a hosted MCP server exposes about 40 expert-model tools plus upload_file, check_job and list_models (21 of 25). 14+10+8+12+10+21 = 75.
- Security & auth 82 (checked 2026-11-06): Router, read on the model lines. Bearer keys with per-key budgets, expiry and attribution, a key management API, and deny-by-default guardrails that limit models per member, role or key (25). The data retention page says request and response content isn't stored and data isn't used to train models by default (18). Content logging is opt-in, async results are deleted after 7 days, and an organisation can enforce Zero Data Retention and region rules; the EU endpoint refuses non-EU models with 451 (13). Cost and provider per response, and a monitoring dashboard by key (12). The security page says Eden AI is SOC 2 and ISO 27001 certified and links a trust centre; /.well-known/security.txt returns 404 and no disclosure policy was found (14). 25+18+13+12+14 = 82.
- Payments & pricing 30 (checked 2026-11-06): No x402, MPP or L402 (0). Provider prices with no markup plus a 5.5% platform fee, published per model in the keyless catalogue (20). llms.txt says some models are billed $0 for tests, but whether a new account can call them without buying credits isn't stated (10). A person signs up in a browser and buys credits through Stripe (0). 0+20+10+0 = 30.
- Task success: Pending. Task success needs the category task suites run through each tool, which haven't run yet, so this run doesn't score it. Its weight is shared across the assessed categories until then. A data provider's data-quality score is published on its listing now and becomes half of this category when it's scored.
- Maintenance & community 58 (checked 2026-11-06): Closed service, read on the model lines. The docs repository changed on 5 and 6 November 2026, including retiring Nova Reel and Veo from video generation, and the terms were updated 22 October (30). No public changelog, so dated API changes in the last 90 days come only from docs commits (12 of 20). Chat support within 48 working hours, no public changelog (8). No SDK of its own, and the MCP server isn't in the official MCP registry (5). Nothing to judge package health by beyond the docs repository (3). 30+12+8+5+3 = 58.
- Transparency & trust 55 (checked 2026-11-06): Editorial half only. Closed service under terms last updated 22 October 2026, naming Eden AI SAS and French law with courts in Lyon (15). The data retention page, terms and DPA agree that content isn't stored by default, and the docs carry a per-provider table of training, retention and ZDR (27). No deprecation policy found; models are dropped in docs updates without dated notice that we found (5). The DPA's Annex 2 names operational subprocessors (AWS EMEA, ClickHouse, Sentry, Metabase, Stripe, Brevo and others) with their roles, and the EU endpoint keeps routing in the EU (18). 15+27+5+18 = 65.

Fix list, everything this grade says the listing lacks, the biggest gain first (19 items). What it covers is at https://www.anchorterminal.com/fixes/eden-ai.md (JSON https://www.anchorterminal.com/fixes/eden-ai.json). The whole list for a coding agent comes from `POST https://www.anchorterminal.com/api/v1/fix-list` with `{"listing": "eden-ai", "plan": "read"}`, free while the beta runs

### What we couldn't check

- unchecked: whether a status page exists elsewhere; none is linked and status.edenai.co didn't resolve on 6 November 2026
- The default rate limit differs between the rate-limits page (10 requests a second) and the plans page (7, raisable to 15)
- unchecked: whether the $0 test models can be called before any credit purchase
- Category changed from the sweep's translation to inference, because the main surface is an OpenAI-compatible model gateway and translation is two of about 40 expert models
- Founders aren't named on the about page, and investor logos carry no names

The API and MCP server run on edenai.run, a second domain of the same company, while the site and docs are on edenai.co.

robots.txt on www.edenai.co allows all agents and carries `Content-Signal: search=yes, ai-input=yes, ai-train=yes`.

/.well-known/security.txt returns 404. No status page is linked, and status.edenai.co didn't resolve on 6 November 2026.

RDAP for edenai.co wasn't read: rdap.org rate-limited us and the .co registry server wasn't tried.

## Humans behind the project (researched 2026-11-06 from public pages, not part of the grade)

### Key people

- Taha Zemmouri, Co-founder and CEO
- Samy Melaine, Co-founder and CTO
- Note: Eden AI's own seed post names Taha Zemmouri (CEO) and Samy Melaine (CTO) as co-founders, and its byline calls Taha Zemmouri CEO and co-founder; the March 2022 press release on its blog also names Taha Zemmouri as CEO. The about page, read on 6 November 2026, says the company was founded in Lyon and has raised $4.5 million; the terms name Eden AI SAS of Villeurbanne. Investors come from Eden AI's two funding posts: the €1.5M round of March 2022, backed by the 50 Partners accelerator and business angels, and the €3M seed led by Galion.exe with 50 Partners and angels, which tech.eu dated 21 November 2024 (the post itself carries only its republication date). Journal du Net described that round as €2M of equity and €1M of debt; only the company's figure is used. No valuation was stated. Personal accounts weren't linked from the pages read.

## Probe metrics

Not measured yet. Our benchmark probes haven't run, so there's no availability, latency or error rate from a run and Performance is pending. Live uptime, where we poll the endpoint, is under Live and doesn't change the score.

## Prices

| Item | Price | Unit | Note |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Platform fee on credit purchases | 5.5% | percentage fee | On top of provider list prices, which carry no markup |

Across all listings: https://www.anchorterminal.com/prices/index.md

## Strengths

- OpenAI-compatible v3 API with an OpenAPI 3.1 spec and a keyless model catalogue with prices and regions
- EU endpoint that refuses models not cleared for European processing with HTTP 451
- Content isn't stored or used for training by default, with opt-in logs and enforceable Zero Data Retention
- Per-key budgets, expiry and deny-by-default guardrails, plus a key management API
- Hosted MCP server exposing OCR, speech, translation, web search and other expert models as tools

## Weaknesses

- No public status page, incident history or SLA found
- The rate-limits page says 10 requests a second and the plans page says 7, raisable to 15
- No public changelog or deprecation policy
- The OpenAPI spec documents few error responses
- Credits are prepaid through Stripe with a 5.5% platform fee on every purchase



## Before you call it (notes for agents)

1. Read GET https://api.edenai.run/v3/models at run time for model ids, prices and regions instead of hard-coding them
2. Use https://api.eu.edenai.run/v3 when data must stay in the EU, and pick another model on a 451 region_not_allowed
3. Set max_tokens to 500 or more for reasoning models, or the answer can come back empty
4. Pass a fallbacks list so a provider 429 or error retries inside one request
5. Poll check_job for MCP tools marked long-running instead of calling them again

## Connect

## Verify this listing

For the vendor. The badge or a plain link to this page verifies the listing, from a page on edenai.co or one of its subdomains. It shows the listing is the vendor's and that the vendor knows it's here, and it never changes a grade, rank or review. The vendor sends the page's address to `POST https://www.anchorterminal.com/api/v1/verify` as `{"slug": "eden-ai", "url": "…"}`, or calls the `verify_listing` tool at https://www.anchorterminal.com/mcp. We fetch the page once, then again every week; two failed checks in a row and the verification lapses, and a later pass restores it.
