Parsec
Parsec is a high-performance, low-latency remote desktop and interactive video streaming product, now a Unity company, used to access graphics-intensive and latency-sensitive applications from anywhere across any device. Its peer-to-peer architecture streams in silky-smooth high definition and is used by game studios (EA, Ubisoft, Blizzard, Square Enix), film/TV, animation, broadcast and architecture teams. Parsec for Teams adds organization-wide administration, and the Parsec for Teams API exposes that admin surface — managing members, groups, team machines (computers), time-limited guest access, application rules, relays, and the team audit log — authenticated with an API key presented as an HTTP Bearer token and governed by a granular team permission model.
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.
API Evangelist profiles Parsec the way a machine reads it — 15 machine-readable artifacts across 8 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 — Parsec scores 54.7/100 (developing), with a separate agent-readiness read of 72/100 (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 Parsec
Each block below is one kind of artifact we hold for Parsec. 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 8
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.
Parsec App Rule API
The App Rule API from Parsec — 3 operation(s) for app rule.
Parsec Audit Log API
The Audit Log API from Parsec — 2 operation(s) for audit log.
Parsec Group API
The Group API from Parsec — 7 operation(s) for group.
Parsec Guest Access Invite API
The Guest Access Invite API from Parsec — 4 operation(s) for guest access invite.
Parsec Machine API
The Machine API from Parsec — 4 operation(s) for machine.
Parsec Member API
The Member API from Parsec — 2 operation(s) for member.
Parsec Member Invite API
The Member Invite API from Parsec — 3 operation(s) for member invite.
Parsec Relay API
The Relay API from Parsec — 2 operation(s) for relay.

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.

MCP SERVERRate 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.
Documented rate limits and quota policies.
Parsec Rate Limits
RATE LIMITSSecurity 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.
Authentication, domain security, vulnerability disclosure, and trust-center signals.
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.
Recommended x-agentic-access execution contracts for AI agents.
