# Vera Health API - [Overview](https://docs.verahealth.ai/docs/index.md): Evidence-based medical AI, delivered through a real-time streaming API. - [Quickstart](https://docs.verahealth.ai/docs/quickstart.md): Make your first call to the Vera Health Chat API in under 5 minutes. - [Streaming events](https://docs.verahealth.ai/docs/guides/streaming.md): Reference for every event type in the Chat API's SSE response stream. - [Reconnecting a stream](https://docs.verahealth.ai/docs/guides/reconnecting-a-stream.md): Resume an in-flight Chat API response after a disconnect using the workflow run ID. - [Rate limits & quotas](https://docs.verahealth.ai/docs/guides/rate-limits-and-quotas.md): Read your remaining request budget and handle 429s correctly. - [Agentic tools](https://docs.verahealth.ai/docs/guides/agentic-tools.md): Choose which tools Vera's agent may use, per request. - [Agentic streaming](https://docs.verahealth.ai/docs/guides/agentic-streaming.md): Reference for every frame in the POST /api/chat/v3 response stream. - [Chat](https://docs.verahealth.ai/api-reference/v1/chat.md): Send a medical question and receive an answer as a Server-Sent Events (SSE) stream. The stream contains answer text, DOI/PMID citation mappings, reference metadata, and suggested follow-up questions. - [Send a chat message](https://docs.verahealth.ai/api-reference/v2/send-a-chat-message.md): Send a clinical question and receive an AI-generated answer. - [Resume a chat stream](https://docs.verahealth.ai/api-reference/v2/resume-a-chat-stream.md): Reconnect to an in-flight or recently completed chat stream started by `POST /api/chat/v2`. Any events buffered during the disconnect are replayed, then live events continue. - [Get your rate-limit quotas](https://docs.verahealth.ai/api-reference/v2/get-your-rate-limit-quotas.md): Return every rate limit configured on the calling API key, with the remaining budget and reset time for each. - [Ask the agent with a chosen tool set](https://docs.verahealth.ai/api-reference/v3/ask-the-agent-with-a-chosen-tool-set.md): **Preview endpoint: integration testing only.** Access is granted under a written testing agreement and is enabled per API key. Request text is sent to the model provider and recorded in Vera's tracing system, and the endpoint carries no availability or stability commitment. Call it server to server… - [Reconnect to an agentic stream](https://docs.verahealth.ai/api-reference/v3/reconnect-to-an-agentic-stream.md): Picks up an answer started by a streamed `POST /api/chat/v3` after the connection dropped. Vera keeps generating when the connection drops, so the answer is still there to collect. ## OpenAPI Specs - [openapi](/docs/api-reference/openapi.json) This documentation is built and hosted on [Mintlify](https://mintlify.com), a developer documentation platform.
