That’s how many APIs an organization has in place on average so it’s no surprise effective creation, management, and security of APIs is more critical than ever. This growth in the usage of APIs isn’t limited to just one industry or use case, in fact we’re seeing dozens of examples across the market including:
-
Finance: European Fintech leverages APIs to provide digital on-boarding for Know Your Customer regulations to hundreds of banks with 6x new customer conversion
-
Healthcare: Internationally renowned clinical lab leading efforts to provide testing results via APIs for improved response time and accessibility of data
-
Automotive: Multinational Fortune 50 car manufacturer offers APIs to connected cars, improves driving experience, enables partners with vehicle data
-
Retail: An international retailer provides digital distribution channel for affiliate revenue from customer referrals via open API portal
As a result, organizations have a clear need for a solution that can facilitate creating APIs once, reusing in different contexts to serve multiple business needs across the enterprise such as providing to external partners & consumers as new digital channels, reducing costs across the business, & increasing productivity of all workers.
