ABOUT GRAVITEE

In 2015, four developers met while working on API strategy and implementation. The API world and API platforms were unnecessarily complex and no powerful open source solutions existed. Together, they decided to build a complete API platform providing business owners effortless control over their entire API ecosystem.

Gravitee.io is the leading open source API platform, enabling worldwide developers and business users to build, manage and monitor their APIs. As a team we are driven by the purpose of giving customers effortless control over their growing API ecosystem and a strong belief in the ethos of open source. By understanding customers’ connectivity challenges and anticipating their needs, we provide the most intuitive platform.
