Firework

Firework is a video commerce platform that helps brands and retailers bring the in-store experience and human connection online through shoppable short-form video, livestream shopping, 1:1 video chat, digital showrooms, and an AI shopping agent. Operated by Loop Now Technologies and backed by SoftBank (a $150M Series C led SoftBank's investment), Firework powers 1,500+ global brands and has driven $300M+ in GMV across 2+ trillion video views. For developers it offers a Web SDK, native Android/iOS SDKs, React Native and Flutter plugins, embeddable web components (Hero Unit, Carousel, Player Deck, Storyblock, Floating Player), a server-side REST Public API (https://api.firework.com/api/v1) secured with OAuth 2.0 (client credentials and authorization-code + PKCE with dynamic client registration), HMAC-signed webhooks, and turnkey commerce-platform integrations for Shopify, Magento, WooCommerce, Salesforce Commerce Cloud, and BigCommerce.

agent aware

Limited machine-readable signal and partial portal coverage — documentation a human can read, but little a machine or agent can consume without scraping.

Kin Score

API Evangelist profiles Firework the way a machine reads it — 5 machine-readable artifacts across 1 API, pulled from the provider's own public surface and indexed so a developer, an analyst, or an AI agent can evaluate it against every other provider on the network.

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 — Firework scores 41.4/100 (thin), with a separate agent-readiness read of 19/100 (agent aware). 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.

How we profile Firework

Each block below is one kind of artifact we hold for Firework. For each we say what it is and why it earns a place in the profile, then list every one we've indexed — capped at two rows, scroll within the panel for the rest.

APIs 1

Each API is captured as its own OpenAPI definition — every operation, parameter, and response. This is the single most useful machine-readable description of what an API does, and it's what lets us score, lint, mock, and generate against it without asking the provider for anything.

Individual APIs this provider publishes, each with its own machine-readable definition.

Firework Public API

Server-to-server REST API for managing businesses, channels, videos, livestreams, playlists, products, business stores, and insights, plus HMAC-signed webhooks. Secured with OAu...

Event Specifications 1

Not every API is request/response. AsyncAPI describes the event-driven and streaming side — the webhooks and channels — so the asynchronous half of the interface is documented the same way the synchronous half is.

AsyncAPI definitions for this provider's event-driven and streaming APIs.

Security Posture 2

Authentication, domain security, vulnerability disclosure, and trust-center signals — the evidence that a provider takes security seriously enough to document it. We profile it because you can't govern what you can't see.

Scopes 1

OAuth scopes are the vocabulary of least-privilege access. Profiling them shows exactly what an integration — or an agent acting on a user's behalf — is allowed to do.
