Several terminals (kitty, iTerm2) do support plotting right into the terminal, but this is still sometimes useful if you don't want to load a while graphics stack just to do a simple plot.

Are they using a similar API/standard?

Most use OSC 1337 (originally from iTerm2) and/or SIXEL (originally from DEC -ades ago). At a quick glance, kitty appears to have NIHed their own instead.
