Mirage

Mirage is an AI research company headquartered in New York City that builds Captions, an AI video editor and generator used by more than 20 million creators, small businesses, and enterprises worldwide. The Mirage Video API exposes the company's state-of-the-art video models over a simple HTTP interface: generate expressive human video from an image and audio (Mirage Video 1), apply styled captions to an existing video, synthesize speech with text-to-speech voices, and render meta text overlays. It is an asynchronous submit-and-poll REST API authenticated with an x-api-key header and priced by usage (per minute of captioning, per second of generated video).

Real signal across most facets with visible, nameable gaps — the contract exists but is thin, or the portal is good while governance and commercial terms are absent.

Kin Score

API Evangelist profiles Mirage the way a machine reads it — 12 machine-readable artifacts across 7 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 — Mirage scores 51.1/100 (developing), with a separate agent-readiness read of 71/100 (agent native). 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 Mirage

Each block below is one kind of artifact we hold for Mirage. 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 7

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.

Mirage Audio API

The Audio API from Mirage — 1 operation(s) for audio.

Mirage health API

The health API from Mirage — 1 operation(s) for health.

Mirage internal API

The internal API from Mirage — 8 operation(s) for internal.

Mirage Meta Text Overlays API

The Meta Text Overlays API from Mirage — 2 operation(s) for meta text overlays.

Mirage root API

The root API from Mirage — 1 operation(s) for root.

Mirage Video Captions API

The Video Captions API from Mirage — 3 operation(s) for video captions.

Mirage Videos API

The Videos API from Mirage — 3 operation(s) for videos.

MCP Servers 1

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.

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.

Agentic Access 1

An x-agentic-access contract marks which operations are safe for an agent to run on its own and which need a human in the loop. It is the difference between an API an agent can use and one it can use safely.
