IRONSCALES

IRONSCALES is an AI-powered, API-based email security platform protecting organizations against phishing, business email compromise (BEC), account takeover (ATO), VIP impersonation, QR-code phishing, malicious URLs and attachments, and deepfake-assisted social engineering. Rather than sitting inline as a secure email gateway, IRONSCALES connects to Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace through their APIs and operates at the mailbox level — no MX record changes — combining adaptive AI detection, computer-vision analysis, automated multi-mailbox remediation, a crowdsourced threat-intelligence network, phishing simulation testing, and security awareness training in one platform. The public IRONSCALES Management API (appapi.ironscales.com) exposes incidents, mitigation statistics, escalated emails, mailbox management, deepfake SIEM events, phishing-simulation campaigns, SAT training campaigns, and tenant security settings, and is the surface behind the company's SIEM/SOAR/XDR integrations. IRONSCALES also operates an OAuth-protected remote MCP server for agent-based access.

Solid contracts, transparent operations, and an easy start — typically complete on four or five facets with one clear soft spot.

Kin Score

API Evangelist profiles IRONSCALES the way a machine reads it — 27 machine-readable artifacts across 10 APIs, 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 — IRONSCALES scores 57.0/100 (strong), with a separate agent-readiness read of 50/100 (agent ready). 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 IRONSCALES

Each block below is one kind of artifact we hold for IRONSCALES. 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 10

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.

IRONSCALES MCP Server

Remote Model Context Protocol server operated by IRONSCALES at mcp.ironscales.com, served over streamable HTTP at /mcp/. Access is OAuth 2.0 protected — an unauthenticated tools...

Open Collections 10

Open, tool-agnostic collections carry the same runnable value as Postman without locking you to one client — the portable, forkable form of the same exercise.

Open, tool-agnostic API collections (OpenAPI-derived and Bruno).

MCP Servers 2

Model Context Protocol servers expose these APIs directly to AI agents. We profile them because agent-native access is the fastest-growing way this provider's capabilities actually get used.

Rate Limits 1

Rate limits are the difference between a demo that works and a production integration that doesn't fall over. Publishing them is an operational-transparency signal — and a hard requirement for any agent that plans its own throughput.

Security Posture 4

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.

Where this information came from

This is an independent, third-party profile of IRONSCALES, 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.
