Skillshare
Skillshare is a New York City–based online learning community for creators, founded in 2010 by Michael Karnjanaprakorn and Malcolm Ong. The platform hosts thousands of on-demand video classes across creative disciplines — illustration, design, photography, animation, lettering, film, productivity, writing, and business — taught by working creators and industry professionals. Skillshare operates on a paid subscription model (Premium membership) that grants members unlimited access to the class catalog, project-based learning, and a discussion community where students submit class projects for feedback. The company has a teacher revenue-share program in which class creators are paid based on watch time and student enrollments, and runs Skillshare for Teams as a B2B offering for organizations to give employees access to the catalog. Skillshare does not publish a public developer API, OpenAPI specification, partner API, or SDK. The platform's programmatic surface is limited to internal web/mobile clients and an affiliate/marketing referral program; there is no documented developer portal, public webhook system, or third-party integration API for the Skillshare catalog, enrollments, watch-time, or teacher-payout data.
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.
API Evangelist profiles Skillshare the way a machine reads it — 2 machine-readable artifacts, 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 — Skillshare scores 13.0/100 (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.

How we profile Skillshare
Each block below is one kind of artifact we hold for Skillshare. 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.
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.
