Detailed overview
Stainless helps API companies produce SDKs that feel native to the languages and ecosystems their customers use. It consumes an API definition and generates client libraries with language-specific conventions, typed models, documentation, and supporting developer experience. Teams can configure the generated surface, review changes in source control, and keep SDK updates aligned with API evolution instead of manually maintaining parallel clients. Stainless is designed for API producers that care about polished public SDKs, not simply generating a minimal HTTP wrapper. It can support a repeatable SDK release process alongside API design, testing, and documentation practices. Generated libraries still require review of the source API description and compatibility decisions, and organizations should confirm the languages and runtime features they need. Current commercial terms, supported targets, and workflow details should be checked in Stainless's official documentation and product materials.
