overshoot.ai

Overshoot is real-time AI vision infrastructure. It ingests live video streams over WebRTC (LiveKit) and lets developers query those frames with vision-language models through an OpenAI-compatible chat completions API, returning structured results such as bounding boxes, pixel coordinates, OCR text, and JSON in as little as 200ms. The REST API manages the full stream lifecycle (create, keepalive, inspect, delete), lists available VLMs from Overshoot, Anthropic, Google, and OpenAI, and handles prepaid credit billing. Overshoot is a Y Combinator and a16z portfolio company building the vision layer for accessibility, security monitoring, sports analysis, robotics, retail analytics, and structured data extraction from live video.

overshoot.ai publishes 8 APIs on the APIs.io network, including Billing API, Chat API, Healthz API, and 5 more. Tagged areas include Company, Artificial Intelligence, Computer-Vision, Video, and Real-Time.

overshoot.ai’s developer surface includes documentation, API reference, getting-started guide, engineering blog, signup flow, support, and 10 more developer resources.

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.

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/overshootai: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts.
