IRONSCALES

IRONSCALES is an AI-powered, API-based email security platform protecting organizations against phishing, business email compromise (BEC), account takeover (ATO), VIP impersonation, QR-code phishing, malicious URLs and attachments, and deepfake-assisted social engineering. Rather than sitting inline as a secure email gateway, IRONSCALES connects to Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace through their APIs and operates at the mailbox level — no MX record changes — combining adaptive AI detection, computer-vision analysis, automated multi-mailbox remediation, a crowdsourced threat-intelligence network, phishing simulation testing, and security awareness training in one platform. The public IRONSCALES Management API (appapi.ironscales.com) exposes incidents, mitigation statistics, escalated emails, mailbox management, deepfake SIEM events, phishing-simulation campaigns, SAT training campaigns, and tenant security settings, and is the surface behind the company's SIEM/SOAR/XDR integrations. IRONSCALES also operates an OAuth-protected remote MCP server for agent-based access.

IRONSCALES publishes 10 APIs on the APIs.io network, including Authorization API, Campaigns API, Deepfake API, and 7 more. Tagged areas include Email Security, Cybersecurity, Phishing, Anti-Phishing, and Business Email Compromise.

IRONSCALES’s developer surface includes documentation, API reference, getting-started guide, support, engineering blog, pricing, signup flow, and 28 more developer resources.

Kin Score

Kin Score Kin Score How this is scored →
scored 2026-09-25 · rubric v0.23.0
Regulatory Posture applies to this provider. Its tags matched the Horizontal (data, software, accessibility, platform) regime, so Regulatory Posture carries 15 points of the composite. If this regime is wrong for your business, say so on your provider repo — the applicability map is public and we will correct it.
Create-or-Update Ergonomics applies to this provider. This API accepts writes, so it carries 10 points of the composite. It is scored from the published contracts themselves: whether a caller can create-or-update in one call, whether the write accepts a key the caller already holds, and whether the response says which branch ran. Without that, every write needs a search-and-branch in front of it, and the first time that check is skipped a duplicate record is created. Scored against the observed mean rather than raw — a provider at the catalog average is unchanged by this facet, not penalised by it.
The six quality facets above are damped to 75 points between them, because the conditional facet above carries the other 25. That is why each facet's contribution is shown against a damped maximum: raising a quality facet moves the composite by 75% of its nominal weight, not 100%. The full arithmetic is at apis.io/rating/.
Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/. Every facet and dimension name above is a link: it opens that measurement's own page — what it means, the exact checks that feed it, how the whole catalog distributes on it, and the providers at the top of it. This rating is computed from github.com/api-evangelist/ironscales: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts.
