Introducing Vonage API Power for Kiro

Published on June 18, 2026

Time to read: 4 minutes

Introduction

If you've ever wished you could access Vonage's Communications and Network APIs without ever leaving your development environment, today's your day. We're excited to announce the availability of Vonage API Power for Kiro - a new featured partner power in the AWS Kiro agentic IDE.

This is a first for the CPaaS space: Vonage is the first communications platform to offer a native integration inside the Kiro IDE. That means you can now build, configure, and deploy applications powered by Vonage APIs - video, voice, messaging, verification, and more - right where you already work.

What Is Kiro?

Kiro is a leading agentic coding service that helps developers build and deploy software using their large language models (LLMs) of choice. Kiro Powers brings specific, contextual guidance from third-party tools directly into the development environment - so instead of jumping between tabs, docs, and dashboards, everything you need is in one place.

What Does the Vonage API Power for Kiro Do?

The Vonage API Power for Kiro builds on our existing Model Context Protocol (MCP) infrastructure - specifically the Vonage Documentation MCP Server and the Vonage API MCP Server - to give you fast, accurate, agentic access to Vonage's full API portfolio from within Kiro.

Here's what you can do with it:

  • Build and configure applications using Vonage Network APIs for advanced use cases like Silent Authentication, SIM Swap detection, and Identity Insights

  • Get context-aware, in-IDE guidance powered by the Vonage Documentation MCP Server - no need to leave your workflow to search for docs

  • Ship production-ready, secure customer experiences faster than ever before

What once took months to build and deploy can now happen in hours.

Why This Matters for Developers

The Vonage developer community is 1.8+ million strong, and we've always believed that the best developer experience is one that gets out of your way. Onboarding friction, context switching, and hunting for documentation are real costs - they slow you down and delay the moment your app goes live.

The Vonage API Power for Kiro removes those barriers. It installs with a single click from kiro.dev and activates automatically. From there, you have everything you need to go from idea to production without leaving your IDE.

Get Started

The Vonage API Power for Kiro is available now.

  1. Head to kiro.dev/powers

  2. Search for "Vonage"

  3. Install the Vonage API Power with a single click

  4. Start building with Vonage Communications and Network APIs - right from your IDE

More Ways to Build with Vonage on AWS

The Kiro Power announcement is part of a broader, deepening collaboration between Vonage and AWS.

Vonage on AWS Marketplace: Vonage enterprise solutions are available today on the AWS Marketplace in both the US and EMEA. The catalog includes eight solutions - among them AI Voice Agents built on Vonage Voice API and Amazon Nova Sonic, the Vonage Protection Suite, Vonage Verify, Vonage Branded Calling, Vonage RCS Messaging, and Vonage Contact Center.

AWS Financial Services Competency: Vonage has also recently achieved the AWS Financial Services Competency, validating its expertise in delivering production-grade communications and network-powered solutions to banking, payments, capital markets, and insurance customers.

AWS Summit New York City: Vonage will deliver a lightning talk and demo at AWS Summit New York City on Wednesday, June 17, 2026, titled Stop Fraud Before It Starts with Vonage and AWS - showcasing how Vonage's mobile network intelligence and AWS's cloud and AI capabilities can silently verify identity at the network level without adding friction for legitimate customers.

Conclusion

The Vonage API Power for Kiro represents a meaningful step forward in how developers interact with communications and network APIs - not as a separate integration to configure, but as a natural part of the tools you already use every day. Whether you're building fraud prevention flows with Silent Authentication, adding real-time messaging to your app, or exploring what's possible with Network APIs, you now have everything you need right inside Kiro. We're excited to see what you build.
