ActEvolve
ActEvolve Inc. (株式会社ActEvolve) was a Tokyo virtual-reality entertainment company incorporated on 9 August 2017 by Takuya Kato, a former Capcom game developer, together with other ex-game-industry engineers. In November 2018 it launched VARK, a VR live platform on which VTuber and virtual-artist performances — most visibly the long-running "Cinderella switch" series with hololive — were staged as ticketed, seat-based concerts for Meta Quest, Android and iOS, paid for with in-app VARK Coin. The company took strategic investment from KLab Inc. in August 2019, renamed itself VARK Inc. (株式会社VARK) on 1 May 2020 alongside a roughly ¥200M round from ANRI, raised a further ¥600M in May 2021, and diversified into the VARK SHORTS 3D animation tool and the STAR BLOOM liver-management agency, producing metaverse events for ANYCOLOR, Avex, KADOKAWA, COVER, Dwango, Shochiku and Meta. VARK was a consumer entertainment app rather than a platform business: it never operated a developer program, and no public API, SDK, webhook catalogue or machine-readable specification (OpenAPI, AsyncAPI, GraphQL SDL, MCP manifest, agent card) was published on any of its hosts at any point — 1,812 archived URLs across vark.co.jp and its subdomains contain no /api, /developers, /docs, /openapi or /graphql path of any kind. The VARK metaverse service shut down on 4 March 2024 with same-day notice, refunding unused VARK Coin until 5 May 2024 under Japan's Payment Services Act; the free tier of VARK SHORTS ended on 30 September 2024; and in March 2025 the entire company was sold in an all-share transaction whose acquirer and terms were kept confidential, with founder Takuya Kato stepping down as representative director. This profile is retained as a historical record — there is no API surface to enrich.
ActEvolve is tracked in the API Evangelist network. This page is the human-readable profile that sits on top of the machine-readable index we maintain at apis.io.
Every provider in the network is reduced to the same set of machine-readable artifacts — OpenAPI contracts, event specifications, GraphQL schemas, runnable collections, pricing and rate-limit signals, security posture, OAuth scopes, and the agent surfaces (MCP servers and skills) that let software drive the API on its own. We profile them because the interface is the part of a company you can actually inspect: it is a truer signal of what a provider does than any marketing page. The full breakdown is below, followed by every artifact we hold — each card links through to its machine-readable definition on apis.io.
Why this profile is thin
ActEvolve/VARK shut its VR platform down on 4 March 2024 and was sold outright in March 2025; vark.co.jp, corp.vark.co.jp and actevolve.com are all still registered to the company but publish no A/AAAA/CNAME record, so curl exits 6 ("could not resolve host") before any HTTP request can be made, and 1,812 archived URLs from when the sites were live contain no /api, /developers or specification path of any kind.
This is an honest zero, not a gap in our research. ActEvolve does not appear to expose an API, so there is nothing here for us to index and nothing for them to fix.

ActEvolve is in the network as a tracked entity. We haven't yet indexed a public API surface for it — when one is published, the artifacts, score, and agent-readiness read will appear here automatically. The source repository is where that profile is built.

This is an independent, third-party profile of ActEvolve, published by API Evangelist. We do not operate, host, resell, or support these APIs, and we are not affiliated with or endorsed by the company unless stated above. Everything here is built from publicly available information — the company's own site, developer portal, documentation, public repositories, and the specifications it publishes for public use. Nothing is obtained by breaching a system, defeating an access control, or using credentials.
The Kin Score and Agent Readiness rating are independently calculated assessments of a company's public API artifacts, scored against a published rubric. They are not certifications, endorsements, security assessments, or audits.
Corrections, re-scores, and removal are free — no partnership or purchase required, and you do not need to justify the request. A removed company is recorded as unrated, never scored zero for having asked. Acknowledgement within one business day; removal within two.
