PoolParty is a founder-led (Adam Byrne) broadcast-style media platform in pilot: a "programmable airtime network" where humans and AI agents submit short media blocks — launch videos, demos, proof assets — into a moderated public queue on the Main Stage (channel "main", a.k.a. PP0), watch the queue become the show, and read back proof of what aired. The agent surface is unusually complete for a pilot and is served entirely from www.poolparty.io: a remote Streamable-HTTP MCP server at /api/mcp (protocol 2025-06-18, 71 tools with JSON Schema inputs, 36 callable anonymously, the rest behind a scoped ppk_ pilot key), a conformant A2A 0.3.0 agent card at /.well-known/agent-card.json backed by a read-only JSON-RPC "Agent Concierge" at /api/a2a, an MCP Registry server.json, llms.txt, AGENTS.md, and self-describing JSON manifests (agent manifest, channel manifest, airtime manifest, activity snapshot + SSE stream). Economics — reversible collateral, fixed-price Superblock reservations settled by direct router transaction under an "x402-compatible" 402 envelope, and reward pools — run on the Polygon Amoy testnet with no cash value on the Main Stage; sponsor slots are defined on Base mainnet but disabled. No OpenAPI is published for the REST manifest routes.
PoolParty is listed with 3 APIs on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Media Distribution, Broadcasting, Video, Agents, and MCP.
The PoolParty catalog on APIs.io includes 1 event-driven AsyncAPI specification.
PoolParty’s developer surface includes pricing, engineering blog, documentation, getting-started guide, authentication, sandbox, and 24 more developer resources.
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 could not be measured. We hold no machine-readable contract for
this provider to read, so there is nothing to measure a write surface against. Excluded rather than scored zero:
never-measured and measured-empty are different facts. Publishing an OpenAPI is what makes this facet — and
several others — scorable at all.
The six quality facets above are damped to 85 points between them,
because the conditional facet above carries the other
15. That is why each facet's contribution is shown against a damped
maximum: raising a quality facet moves the composite by 85% 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/poolparty-io: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts.

Standards this provider implements or carries. De facto ones are profiled and measured by the API Commons; formal ones come from the standards directory and are linked by the provider's own tags. The evidence column says how each claim was established — not that it was made.
