Arago
Arago (Arago Computing SAS) is a Paris-based deeptech semiconductor startup, founded in 2024 by Nicolas Muller, Ambroise Muller, and Eliott Sarrey, building energy-efficient AI accelerators powered by light rather than electricity. Its photonic processor, codenamed JEF, uses a proprietary multi-physics computing core that encodes values with lasers instead of thousands of transistor switches, targeting 10x to 30x reductions in energy and cost overhead for AI workloads at equivalent performance to leading GPUs. Arago pairs the hardware with a full software stack called CARLOTA, which abstracts the complexities of photonic computing and exposes a programmable interface compatible with mainstream AI frameworks such as PyTorch and TensorFlow, while remaining fabbable using standard semiconductor processes. The company operates across France, North America, and Israel, and in July 2025 raised an oversubscribed $26 million seed round co-led by Earlybird, Protagonist, and Visionaries Tomorrow, with backing from executives and investors tied to Apple, Arm, Nvidia, Microsoft, Amazon, Uber, PayPal, and Hugging Face. Arago was added to the API Evangelist network as a portfolio company of Earlybird; as an early-stage hardware company it does not yet publish a public developer API or OpenAPI surface.
Index entry only — little beyond a description and a link, and nothing machine-readable enough for an agent to act on without a human reading the site first.
Arago 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. From those artifacts we compute the Kin Score — Arago scores 11.5/100 (minimal), with a separate agent-readiness read of 0/100 (human only). The full breakdown is below, followed by every artifact we hold — each card links through to its machine-readable definition on apis.io.
Kin Score
This is the API Evangelist rating — a single, repeatable read computed from the artifacts on this page. Green fill is points earned; the red track is points possible, so every bar shows earned-versus-possible at a glance.

The organization behind the API
Arago 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.
