ToyTalk

ToyTalk was a San Francisco conversational AI company founded in 2011 that built voice and chat characters for entertainment, rebranded as PullString in 2016, and was acquired by Apple in early 2019. Its developer platform - the PullString Web API plus Converse and Author tooling for authoring conversational experiences - was shut down after the acquisition. Today pullstring.com and toytalk.com no longer resolve and both domains are parked on Apple nameservers, the github.com/pullstring organization has been deleted, and the only surviving first-party developer artifact is the orphaned pullstring JavaScript SDK on npm. This profile records that historical developer surface; there is no live API.

human only

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.

Kin Score

API Evangelist profiles ToyTalk the way a machine reads it — 1 machine-readable artifact, 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 — ToyTalk scores 8.1/100 (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 ToyTalk

Each block below is one kind of artifact we hold for ToyTalk. 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 1

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.
