Kamcord
Kamcord was a San Francisco-based mobile technology company (Y Combinator, Summer 2012) founded by Aditya Rathnam, Kevin Wang, and Matt Zitzmann. It offered an iOS and Android SDK that let game developers embed in-app gameplay recording, live streaming ("appcasting"), and social sharing to YouTube, Twitter, and Facebook, and grew to roughly 200 million device installs. The company later pivoted to a short-form mobile screen-content social network ("shots"). In November 2017 Lyft acquihired most of the ~15-person team, including co-founders Rathnam and Wang, and Kamcord wound down its consumer app, live streaming, and developer SDK by the end of 2017. The company is DEFUNCT and no longer operates any developer program or API. The kamcord.com domain has since been repurposed by an unrelated lifestyle/blog publisher and is NOT associated with the original Kamcord.
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.
Kamcord 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 — Kamcord scores 6.8/100 (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.

Kamcord 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.
