api.video

8 of 15 measurable points under formula 9.2, measured on 2026-08-12. 15 checks exist; each is one HTTP request with a published rule, so every sentence below can be rerun and argued with. 1 of them could not be measured from where we ask, and those are left out of the denominator rather than counted as failures.

A · Discovery

  • PASS
    Answers an agent user-agentAnswered 200 to LetAgentsIn/1.0 (+https://letagentsin.com/methodology)

  • PASS
    On-demand agents not blockedNo on-demand agent is blocked
  • N/A
    Paths robots.txt points at answerrobots.txt names no concrete path, only patterns or nothing, so there is no claim to check
  • PASS

B · Agent entry

  • FAIL
    Agent entry pointNone of the 9 known agent entry paths returns a file rather than your page shell
  • PASS
    OAuth dynamic client registrationregistration_endpoint published, and client_credentials is among the 13 advertised grants, so an unattended agent has a documented path to a token
  • FAIL
    MCP surfaceNo MCP surface: nothing answered at mcp.api.video, mcp.api.video/mcp, mcp.api.video/v1/mcp, api.api.video/mcp, /mcp or /api/mcp, and no file mentions MCP

C · Registration

  • UNMEASURED
    No CAPTCHA in the signup HTMLUnmeasurable: the signup form at https://dashboard.api.video/register is not in the server HTML, so its gates are not eitherServer-render the form, or tell us the endpoint it posts to, and the gates become visible to us and to an agent.
  • FAIL
    Signup reachable without a browserhttps://dashboard.api.video/register is reachable, but its form needs JavaScript

D · Provisioning

  • PART
    Programmatic key provisioning1 of 7 provisioning phrases across the 4 documents we read: "create an api key (or api token, access token, personal access token, service account, auth token, secret key), next to something programmatic"
  • PASS
    Free tier or no-card trial stated in textFree tier or no-card signals at https://api.video/pricing/: "free plan", "Get started for free", "started for free"

E · Integration

  • PASS
    Typed SDK on the registry@api.video/player-sdk@1.2.33 ships types, matched from the registry by who publishes it rather than by a link on your site
  • FAIL
    Machine-readable API descriptionNo OpenAPI spec at the 5 usual paths, none declared by https://docs.api.video, and no markdown negotiationPoint at your spec from your docs page with rel="service-desc" and an agent finds it without guessing.

Tell me when this changes

The failures here are the kind nobody notices. An edge rule that starts refusing agents changes nothing a person sees in a browser, so the first sign is usually an integration that quietly stopped working. We rescan weekly and write only when a verdict moves.

This page is the newest scan we hold for api.video and changes when we rescan. It is not a judgement of the product: we measure whether an unattended run can get through, not whether the thing is any good. The whole corpus is published as JSON and CSV.
