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!

Dropbox Sign keeps it to the part you actually wanted: save the templates you use most, send the signature request, let automatic reminders follow up with anyone who hasn't signed, and see where every agreement stands in one place. Pricing is transparent and predictable, with no envelope caps or overage fees, so teams can plan costs with confidence. (sponsored)
