Python is great for AI and Machine Learning. Working with AI and ML libraries, however, sometimes can be a challenge.
That’s why APILayer, which belongs to the Idera family like Embarcadero, has no less than seven APIs designed to make your life easier as you deploy AI and ML in your software.
These APIs come with simple and easy-to-apply Python documentation, and even junior Python developers in your team can implement these API solutions into your business processes and automation.

Which Python Libraries Are Used For Machine Learning? What Do They Do?
Some of the most popular Python libraries for Machine Learning are scikit-learn, TensorFlow, and Keras. These libraries provide tools that can be used to build, train, evaluate and optimize Machine Learning models.
So What Are AI & Machine Learning APIs?
AI & Machine Learning APIs are web-based services that provide access to AI & Machine Learning models. These APIs can be used to develop new applications or improve the performance of existing applications.
Why Use a Machine Learning API Rather Than a Machine Learning Python Library?
You might want to use a Machine Learning API rather than a Machine Learning Python library for three key reason reasons:
- An API can provide a higher-level interface than a library, making it easier to use
- An API can be more scalable than a library since it can be used by multiple applications simultaneously
- An API can be more flexible than a library since it can be updated more efficiently to support new features or changes in the underlying data
How Can I Use APILayer’s AI & Machine Learning APIs?
You can use AI & Machine Learning APIs by making calls to the API using a programming language like Python or Java. These calls will allow you to access the API’s AI & Machine Learning models. To make an API call, you will need to have the API URL, the name of the API method you wish to call, any parameters that the method requires, and your API key. The methods and parameters will depend on the API you are using. If you use the Python requests library, the results from the URL will be returned in JSON format.
