Shapes
Shapes, Inc. is a social AI platform where humans and AI characters ("Shapes") share the same group chats. Shapes are general-purpose social agents with rich personalities, voice, and short-term plus long-term memory that persists across platforms, running on 50+ free text, image, and voice models. Backed by Lightspeed Venture Partners, the company operates the consumer app at shapes.inc and previously offered an OpenAI-compatible developer API (api.shapes.inc) for building Shapes into any application; that developer API was deprecated on 2025-09-25 and the team has said building with Shapes will return. This profile captures the company identity plus the documented API surface, developer tooling, and security posture for the API Evangelist network.
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 Shapes the way a machine reads it — 6 machine-readable artifacts across 3 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 — Shapes scores 48.1/100 (developing), with a separate agent-readiness read of 47/100 (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 Shapes
Each block below is one kind of artifact we hold for Shapes. 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 3
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.
Shapes Chat API
The Chat API from Shapes — 1 operation(s) for chat.
Shapes Models API
The Models API from Shapes — 1 operation(s) for models.

The Shapes API from Shapes — 1 operation(s) for shapes.
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 SERVERSecurity 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.
