Zatanna

Zatanna is a Y Combinator (W2026) startup based in San Francisco that creates APIs for software that doesn't have any. It reverse-engineers the back ends of web-based cloud and on-prem software — ERPs (SAP), PMS/POS systems, insurance portals, and marketplaces — by observing real workflows, reconstructing the underlying request sequences, and hosting them as clean, callable APIs. Rather than relying on slow browser automation or computer-use agents, Zatanna gives AI agents faster, cheaper, and more reliable integrations, with a reliability layer that handles session management, authentication, and change detection. The agent-facing surface is a hosted, OAuth-protected Model Context Protocol (MCP) server at api.zatanna.ai.

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 Zatanna the way a machine reads it — 5 machine-readable artifacts across 1 API, 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 — Zatanna scores 13.5/100 (minimal), with a separate agent-readiness read of 4/100 (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 Zatanna

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

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.

Zatanna MCP Server

Zatanna's hosted, remote Model Context Protocol (MCP) server — the agent-facing surface of its reverse-engineered portal integrations. Live at https://api.zatanna.ai/mcp over St...

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.

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.

Scopes 1

OAuth scopes are the vocabulary of least-privilege access. Profiling them shows exactly what an integration — or an agent acting on a user's behalf — is allowed to do.
