There's an API for everything.

An API (Application Programming Interface, if anyone asks) is a set of routines and protocols for building apps. Companies are launching APIs left and right. Today, there's an API for just about everything.

Here are some helpful ones:

• RapidAPI: Discover, test and connect to the world's top APIs
• RAML is the simplest way to design APIs
• Dash gives you offline access to 150+ API documentation sets
• Sheetsu turns Google Spreadsheets into an API
• Cloud Vision is Google's image recognition API for developers
• Every Developer helps you evaluate an API before you start coding
• Zapier's Developer Platform will connect you to 750+ apps overnight

If you'd like to start understand the interfaces that connect our world, Introduction to APIs is a free eBook in the Kindle store!

An API for Everything

We asked 34 customers what Viktor does for them. Not one said chatbot.

They kept using words like colleague, coworker, team member. One CEO called it the glue holding their e-commerce business together, which is a lot, but also… you see why. It lives in Slack and plugs into 3,000+ tools, so instead of jumping between tabs, you just ask for the thing. Pull Stripe against HubSpot, check Sentry alerts, spin up a campaign brief, build a landing page, send a report upstairs. It all happens there.

It has already hit top 5 on Product Hunt with 130 comments, is SOC 2 certified, and your data does not train models.

One user said it was the first time AI felt like a real coworker, which is either exciting or slightly concerning depending on your week.
