# Erebor > Erebor is a digital-first, FDIC-insured national bank for the innovation economy — technology startups, cryptocurrency and stablecoin businesses, and AI and defense companies. It provides deposit accounts, wires and money movement, and stablecoin operations, plus a developer API secured with API keys. This file was generated by the API Evangelist enrichment pipeline from the publicly observable surface; Erebor's own developer documentation is login-gated. ## Company - Name: Erebor (Erebor Bank) - Sector: fintech / banking / stablecoin - Co-founders: Palmer Luckey (Anduril), Joe Lonsdale (8VC) - Backers: Founders Fund, Lux Capital, Haun Ventures, 8VC - Regulatory: OCC preliminary conditional approval (Oct 2025), FDIC deposit-insurance approval (Dec 2025), launched Feb 2026; FDIC-insured - Website: https://erebor.bank ## Developer surface - Developer dashboard (Auth0 login): https://developer.erebor.bank - API gateway (API-key auth): https://api.erebor.bank - Documentation (Fern, login-gated): https://docs.erebor.bank - Error reference: https://docs.erebor.bank/errors ## Authentication - Programmatic API access to api.erebor.bank uses an API key; unauthenticated requests return 401 {"error":"UNAUTHORIZED","message":"Invalid or missing API key."}. - Human login (customer app and developer dashboard) uses Auth0 (OpenID Connect / OAuth 2.0). The developer dashboard supports separate test and live modes. ## Errors - Custom JSON envelope (not RFC 9457): { error, message, field, docs_url }. - error is a SCREAMING_SNAKE_CASE code; docs_url deep-links into docs.erebor.bank/errors. ## Repository artifacts (API Evangelist network) - Authentication: authentication/erebor-authentication.yml - Error catalog: errors/erebor-problem-types.yml - Conventions: conventions/erebor-conventions.yml - Conformance: conformance/erebor-conformance.yml - Sandbox: sandbox/erebor-sandbox.yml ## Notes - Erebor's OpenAPI/reference documentation is behind a login, so no machine-readable spec, SDK, MCP server, or event/webhook surface could be captured without credentials. Nothing has been fabricated.
