Getting Started

Taiso runs Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) — structured, multi-step AI workflows that produce validated, schema-conformant output instead of free-form text. This page takes you from zero to a first API call.

1. Get an API key

All Taiso API requests authenticate with an API key. To get one:

  1. Sign up for a Taiso account.
  2. Wait for approval. New accounts are reviewed by the Taiso team before they can use the API; until then your account shows as pending. Accounts from some company domains are approved automatically.
  3. Once approved, create a key: Manage API keys →

The key is shown once at creation time. Store it somewhere safe; you cannot retrieve it again afterwards, only revoke it and issue a new one.

2. Make your first request

The production API is at https://api.taiso.ai. Pass your key as a bearer token:

curl https://api.taiso.ai/api/v2/projects \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $TAISO_API_KEY"

A successful call returns JSON. If you get a 401, the key is missing, malformed, or revoked; see Authentication.

3. Explore the endpoints

The API is self-documenting. Interactive request builders and the full schema live at API Reference.

Where to go next

  • SOP Engine — define and run a workflow.
  • SLAF Framework — why Taiso output is structured and checked.
  • API Changes — what changed in the API, and what your client may notice.
