Our take
Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) are like the LEGO building blocks of the digital world. And they are on an increasingly fast evolutionary path toward simplification, power, sustainability, and flexibility too. It is no wonder, then, that they have become increasingly mainstream in recent years. There is now an API for almost any service, from finance and ESG investing, to communications, travel, and logistics, with over 40% of large organisations having over 250 APIs in action.
Stoplight is an API design, development, and documentation platform, built with the modern API workflow in mind. Their interface enables companies to complete the whole API design lifecycle from one platform.
Stoplight has seen impressive success and have formed partnerships with major players in this industry, such as Telus, Deutsche Bank and Chargify. They have secured major funding which will be used to expand its engineering efforts and introduce new marketing & customer engagement offerings for its growing user base.
