APIs power almost every modern digital experience. They help organisations automate workflows, personalise content, secure transactions, and integrate with external systems. As businesses grow, the number of APIs they rely on grows as well. This leads to a familiar problem: too many vendors, too many authentication flows, and too many inconsistent data formats across services.This is where API…
Phone verification seems simple until you learn that half the APIs just validate data format while the other half actually send codes to verify humans. Phone verification sits right at the center of your authentication stack. It stops spam registrations and keeps your user…
You need to grab a website’s color palette, fonts, and logo for a design project. Thirty minutes later, you’re still right-clicking, inspecting elements, and copying HEX codes into a spreadsheet. Now multiply that by 10 clients or 50 competitor sites.
You built APIs that power your core business logic, handle sensitive data, and serve thousands of requests per second. Now you want to build real-time AI data pipelines, enable AI agents, or create intelligent assistants. A significant challenge exists because LLMs do not act like traditional API clients.Web apps or mobile clients follow strict request patterns, but LLMs generate dynamic and…

Step-by-Step Guide: How to Make Your REST APIs Accessible to AI Assistants Using MCPs
December 23, 2025
There’s a growing gap between powerful language models and the real-world data they need to access. Model Context Protocols (MCPs) are bridging this gap, allowing AI assistants like Claude to seamlessly connect with external APIs and access real-time data without…
The conversation about APIs is changing. For years, we viewed them as tools for data access. But, in the age of AI, access alone is not enough. We are in a new era where an API’s value comes from the intelligence it powers, making this a strategic conversation about competitive advantage, not just a technical one.Many businesses still use “dead endpoints” which are APIs that…

December 2, 2025
Tracking flight data manually is time-consuming. If you’re building travel apps, monitoring corporate flights, or automating customer notifications, you need real-time aviation data flowing directly into your workflows. The traditional approach requires custom API…
Black Friday and Cyber Monday can be intense for technical teams. You are dealing with traffic spikes, last minute promo changes, unreliable third party tools, fraud attempts, and a very small window to get everything right.Using APIs can take a lot of that pressure off and help you actually capitalize on the opportunity. With the right stack, you can validate users, personalize offers, watch…
