As a tech founder, I've dealt with "𝙞𝙣𝙩𝙚𝙜𝙧𝙖𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣 𝙝𝙚𝙡𝙡" so many times, I've lost count.
Getting it right is so hard. Spending hours pouring over documentation, writing code, and troubleshooting errors, led to my burnout.
But why do we put ourselves through this? Why do we need to connect to multiple 3rd party APIs just to build a simple SaaS?
The answer is simple: our customers demand it. They want seamless integrations with their favorite tools and platforms. They want to use our SaaS with ease, without having to worry about the technical complexities behind the scenes.

- Reading documentation that's longer than a Game of thrones novel.
- Writing code that's more complicated than a calculus problem.
- Monitoring errors that seem to pop up out of nowhere.
- Handling rate limits that are more restrictive than a dictator's regime.
- Dealing with API changes that break your entire integration.
- And don't even get me started on the security and compliance headaches. that come with each new integration!
Developers today, want to build rockets and Teslas of tomorrow. However, we're stuck in this rut of API integrations. We're stuck in a never-ending cycle of debugging, troubleshooting, and hair-pulling frustrations.
