Bump vs SuperTokens
SuperTokens scores higher on the AgentReady, 54/100 against 52/100. They differ on 9 of the 41 signals. Which ones decides whether an agent can adopt them without a person watching.
What each one is
Bump. Bump.sh is a platform for API documentation and MCP (Model Context Protocol) servers that automatically generates docs and production-ready MCP servers from OpenAPI, AsyncAPI, and Arazzo specifications.
SuperTokens. Open source user authentication platform that helps developers build fast, maintain control, and reduce costs.
Where Bump is ahead
Bump passes structured api reference, and SuperTokens does not. That is understand, whether an agent can read the docs and work out how the API behaves before calling it.
It also holds operate: retry behavior documented and observable execution. SuperTokens misses those.
Where SuperTokens is ahead
SuperTokens passes clear canonical domain, llms.txt published and llms-full.txt / full agent docs, and Bump does not. That is discover, whether an agent can find the product at all without being told it exists.
It also holds understand: pricing understandable. Bump misses it.
And on adopt, no mandatory sales call and free trial or free allowance. Bump misses those.
What neither does
Both fail openapi / spec quality, request examples provided, response examples provided, errors and status codes documented, limits / constraints documented, self-service signup, agent-compatible signup flow, programmatic credential creation, fast time to first request, structured, predictable output, machine-readable errors, idempotency support, rate-limit behavior predictable, agent compatibility verified. If your agent needs any of those, you will be building it yourself either way.
Score, pillar by pillar
The AgentReady splits into four pillars, scored separately, because a product can be easy to find and still impossible to adopt.
Discover is whether an agent can find the product at all without being told it exists. SuperTokens leads 100 to 80. Bump misses clear canonical domain, llms.txt published, llms-full.txt / full agent docs; SuperTokens misses nothing.
Understand. Bump leads 38 to 31. Bump misses openapi / spec quality, pricing understandable, request examples provided, response examples provided, errors and status codes documented, limits / constraints documented; SuperTokens misses structured api reference, openapi / spec quality, request examples provided, response examples provided, errors and status codes documented, limits / constraints documented.
Adopt. SuperTokens leads 60 to 45. Bump misses self-service signup, no mandatory sales call, agent-compatible signup flow, programmatic credential creation, free trial or free allowance, fast time to first request; SuperTokens misses self-service signup, agent-compatible signup flow, programmatic credential creation, fast time to first request.
Operate is whether an agent can run against it in production and recover when a call fails. Bump leads 44 to 24. Bump misses structured, predictable output, machine-readable errors, idempotency support, rate-limit behavior predictable, agent compatibility verified; SuperTokens misses structured, predictable output, machine-readable errors, retry behavior documented, idempotency support, rate-limit behavior predictable, observable execution, agent compatibility verified.
Pricing
Bump does not publish a machine-readable starting price. SuperTokens starts at $0.02/MAU and has a free tier.
