Talkray
Talkray (operated by TiKL, Inc., a Y Combinator W12 startup founded in 2012 by Zafer Ahmed in Redwood City, California) was a free cross-platform messaging and calling app spanning the TiKL Touch-To-Talk and Talkray consumer apps, which together saw roughly 28 million downloads. In 2013 the company announced the Talkray Developer API, a white-label cloud platform for embedding one-on-one and group text chat, group voice calls, voicemail, push notifications, and image/video transfer into third-party mobile apps and games. That API never left private beta and no public documentation, OpenAPI, SDKs, or developer portal were ever published. The company is now defunct (deadpooled) - active development ceased around 2018 and the app was removed from Google Play in February 2021. talkray.com currently sits behind Cloudflare and returns HTTP 403 for all paths.
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.
Talkray is tracked in the API Evangelist network. This page is the human-readable profile that sits on top of the machine-readable index we maintain at apis.io.
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 — Talkray scores 6.8/100 (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.

Talkray is in the network as a tracked entity. We haven't yet indexed a public API surface for it — when one is published, the artifacts, score, and agent-readiness read will appear here automatically. The source repository is where that profile is built.
