About

Seven API team members, pose for a in-game photo in a server room. Photo from 2021.

VRChat briefly explains what their application programmer interfaces does, and gives examples of information it maintains, on their Developer Blog from 2019:

There are three major parts to VRChat — the client, which handles all of the fun virtual reality stuff, the network layer, which handles the high-speed low-drag communication between users in the virtual realms, and the API, which is responsible for permanent information storage like "who our users are" and "where our users are" and "keeping tabs on a truly spectacular collection of petabytes of avatars loose conglomerations of dynamic bones and particle animations."
