Authentication & signup

Public reconstructions need no account (see tier limits). For an API key, use the signup page at https://api.apertureapi.com/signup, or call the API directly:

curl -sS -X POST https://api.apertureapi.com/users/signup \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  -d '{"email": "you@example.com", "password": "..."}'

The response returns a bearer token and your API key (ak_…) plus your account tier. Send the API key as a bearer credential on authenticated requests.
