Anthropic has acquired Stainless, a startup that generates SDKs, command-line tools, and MCP servers from API specifications, in a move analysts say targets the “last mile” of developer experience.
Founded in 2022 by former Stripe engineer Alex Rattray, Stainless converts API specifications into production-ready SDKs across languages, including Python, TypeScript, Kotlin, Go, and Java.
Stainless does not sell primarily to enterprises, but its tools form part of the software development chain that enterprise teams may rely on. They help generate SDKs, documentation, and MCP servers that developers can use to connect AI models, cloud services, and APIs to business applications.
In a statement, Stainless said it will wind down all hosted products, including its SDK generator, as the team shifts focus to Claude Platform capabilities and connecting agents to APIs. Existing customers will retain the right to modify and extend SDKs they have already generated.
