KK直播 (KK Live)

KK直播 (KK Live) is a Chinese mobile-first video livestreaming and social entertainment platform operated by 杭州米络文化传播有限公司 (Hangzhou Melot Culture Communication Co., Ltd.), part of 米络星集团 (Melot Group), headquartered in Hangzhou with offices in Beijing, Changsha, Xi'an, Shenyang, Los Angeles and Mumbai. Founded in 2012 to fill the gap in mobile livestreaming variety shows, the platform pairs talent and performance streaming with interactive social features — virtual gifting, bullet comments (弹幕), multi-person live connections, PK mini-games, karaoke rooms, outdoor streaming and paid companionship. The company reports more than 100,000 independent streamers, over 600 partner talent agencies and 150 million registered users. Melot Group runs three business lines — entertainment livestreaming, online education and video service solutions — under the KK, 棒直播 and 米乐 brands. Backed by Qiming Venture Partners (启明创投), Sequoia China (红杉资本), CMC Capital (华人文化基金) and Shanda Capital (盛大资本). KK Live is a business-to-consumer product: as of this enrichment pass it publishes no public developer portal, API documentation, SDKs or machine-readable API specifications.

human only

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.

Kin Score

API Evangelist profiles KK直播 (KK Live) the way a machine reads it — 1 machine-readable artifact, 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 — KK直播 (KK Live) scores 9.7/100 (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.
