Lowkey

Lowkey (lowkey.gg) was a San Francisco social gaming platform that let players automatically record, review, and share their gameplay highlight clips across titles like League of Legends, VALORANT, and Among Us. Backed by Y Combinator and an a16z Series A, the company was acquired by Niantic (the developer of Pokemon GO) and the consumer product was subsequently discontinued. It was surfaced as an a16z portfolio company and added to the API Evangelist network as a stub. An enrichment pass on 2026-07-20 found no live public developer surface: the lowkey.gg domain no longer resolves/serves, and there is no public API, OpenAPI, documentation portal, SDK, or MCP server to harvest.

Lowkey is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Gaming, Social, Video, and Esports.
