## User Guide

Welcome to the **Sensedia Adaptive Governance** User Guide.[^1]

**Adaptive Governance** is Sensedia's solution for API governance.

The solution offers a low-code interface and analyzes the quality of your API documentation. Based on predefined rules, **Adaptive Governance** calculates and assigns a maturity score to each API, indicating rules that were violated and the severity level of each violation.

In addition, **Adaptive Governance** provides recommendations to improve the quality of your API documentation. It helps developers to fix violations and improve the maturity score.

With **Artificial Intelligence** (AI), **Adaptive Governance** applies the recommendations directly to the API documentation, automating the process of fixing the violations.

## **Adaptive Governance** features

One thing to note here is that users of **Sensedia API Platform** already benefit from several governance tools:

- dashboards;
- advanced API catalog with detailed search;
- management of apps that consume the APIs;
- management of API plans, including access control, control of number of calls, infrastructure protection and billing quota;
- policies (our interceptors) that allow you to configure access rules, security standards and behavior of the APIs, their versions and revisions;
- several levels of user organization (teams, roles, visibility rules);
- API deployment in different environments;
- Developer Portal to organize API publication and documentation.

The features brought by **Adaptive Governance** add more value to these tools, helping you to improve the quality of your API documentation and ensuring that they are aligned with best market practices.

For that, **Adaptive Governance** offers the following features:

- [**_Maturity Report_**](/docs/adaptive-governance/ag-maturity-report), which evaluates the quality of API documentation and assigns a maturity score, indicating the violated rules and the severity level of each violation.

- [**_Smart Recommendations_**](/docs/adaptive-governance/ag-smart-recommendations), which provides the option to download the documentation with the recommendations applied by AI.
