What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized? To plan and document our APIs, and ...

Great playground to coordinate API design with business and technical stakeholders

What do you like best? It is a very helpful tool to non-technical (business side) user to formulate and structure API before it will be implemented I can document business context with API technical structure and generate easy to use API documentation from it.

Hosted doc pricing is not reasonable for small teams if it will be used only to agree on the API structure. And the ...

Recommendations to others considering the product: I would recommend it for small and medium sized companies who want to easily implement APIs for their products and continuously improve its features quickly. What problems ...
