Integrations

Connect olud.ai to your stack

10,000+ open-source AI projects, 180+ models with live pricing, and open-source alternatives to 129 commercial products — reachable from your editor, your automations and your alerting, without opening this site.

MCP server

For Claude, Cursor, VS Code, and any MCP client.

Paste one address into your client and your assistant can query the catalogue while you work: find a tool for a task, pull a full project record, replace a paid product with an open-source one, pick a model that fits a budget and a context window, or see what is moving this week. Every answer carries the link to the matching page, so you can check the source.

Your key and a ready-to-paste version of this block are in Your account. Without a key it still answers, with a small allowance, so you can try before signing up.

REST API

Get your key

Nine endpoints over the same graph.

Search, full project records, the models catalogue with pricing, open-source alternatives, the emerging index, and 90-day history on Pro. One key, one daily quota, counted separately from the MCP server — an editor asking a few questions never eats into your API budget.

curl -H "X-Api-Key: your-key" \
  "https://olud.ai/api/v1/search?q=vector+database"

Signed webhooks

Add a webhook

Four events, pushed to your endpoint.

Release

A project you follow ships a new version.

Health

Its maintenance score moves — up or down.

License

The licence changes. The one with legal consequences.

New project

A notable project enters the directory.

Each delivery is a JSON body signed with your secret, so you can prove it came from us. Set them up in Your account.

The licence event is the one to wire first. A dependency moving from MIT to a commercial licence is not a piece of news — it is a decision your legal team needs, on the day it happens rather than at the next audit.

n8n, Zapier and Make

Already possible today, no plugin required.

To read our data: use the generic HTTP Request node against any /api/v1/ endpoint, with your key in the X-Api-Key header.

To be notified: create a Webhook node in n8n (or a Catch Hook in Zapier), copy the URL it gives you, and paste it as a webhook endpoint in your account. Deliveries start on the next morning scan.

Method   POST
URL      https://olud.ai/api/v1/search?q=ocr
Header   X-Api-Key: your-key

The button above copies a ready-made n8n workflow — paste it straight onto your canvas, then put your key in the header field.

OpenAPI specification

Open the file

One URL, and the tool configures itself.

Everything above — the nine endpoints, their parameters, the shape of every response, how to authenticate — described in the format most tools already read. You do not write an integration; you paste an address.

https://olud.ai/openapi.json

Custom GPT

Configure → Actions → Import from URL. Add your key as an API-key authentication, header X-Api-Key.

Dify, Flowise, Open WebUI

Add a tool from an OpenAPI schema, paste the URL, pick the operations you want to expose.

Postman, Insomnia

Import → Link. You get the nine requests, documented, ready to run.

Code generators

Any OpenAPI generator produces a typed client — TypeScript, Python, Go — from this file alone.

All live today.

Slack & Discordready

The same four events, formatted for their inboxes — a readable message instead of raw JSON, and the licence change in red because it is the only one with legal consequences.

Pick a destination →

RSS feedsready

Four feeds, readable by Slack, Teams, Feedly and every automation tool: what is new, releases, emerging projects and the blog. No key, no signup.

GitHub Actionready

Reads your dependency manifests and comments the pull request when a licence flips or a project stops being maintained. It will not fail your build: a licence change is a decision, not a compilation error.

Stuck on a step? The documentation has the copy-paste setup for each of these — client by client for MCP, endpoint by endpoint for the API, with signature verification code and the error messages you will actually see.
