Hi Product Hunt, Excited to launch our API Design Studio today! APIs have been in the existence for last 20+ years. There are 200 million APIs exist and 1.5 billion new APIs to be built in the next 8 years. Yet, the process of designing, coding and testing APIs is still in the legacy. Our intent was to create a platform that can empower Product Managers to design API without needing Ph.D. in JSON or YAML or API standards. We are in a different world where B2B integrations rely heavily on APIs. There are tools that exist that are either hosted solutions or too developer-centric. We believe B2B space has a ton of potential to unlock and Product Management needs to be the tip of the spear leading integrations that matter for customers, users, and partners. Additionally, product managers are required to work across several stakeholders in engineering and operations that are constantly operationalizing APIs like developers, DevOps, Architects, SRE, Release engineers, and Performance / Security experts. Not everyone is a skilled business user that understands the nuances of API, integration, and the value of data. Additionally, it takes several steps and a ton of time to get repeatable ideation to implementation done. We were looking for a product that supports: āœ… Collaborative innovation āœ… Friendly and intuitive for different types of stakeholders (refer above) āœ… Intelligent with governance and standards āœ… A completely modern API development platform None existed, and hence we built Conektto, the API-First Design and Test Platform. The only platform in the industry that can empower Product Managers to design API, collaborate with developers, and testers to auto-generate mock, tests, test execution, test data, performance tests, and report results - Zero-touch for Data provider APIs. With today's launch, we add MongoDB, SQL Server, Postgres and MySQL-based data provider API design with the ability to design complex API business logic by abstracting the metadata behind it. Additionally, we are introducing a free format API designer so you can product managers can create OpenAPI specs to communicate with Developers. We have a ton of new stuff in our pipeline including the ability to build composite / aggregate API design, and GraphQL capabilities as well as our partnership with Microsoft PowerFx started in October 2022 for OpenAI based 100% production-ready code generation. Please try out our platform and provide your feedback. We'd love to hear what you think!

Team conektto, great job in bringing great product to market. With API design studio where you can bring the database relationships driving behavior to develop API is very good idea. Currently companies has so much of legacy data and they donā€™t know to use or build solutions on top of it. It is comprehensive solution for both product managers and solutions architects to design APIs. Also on top of it you have solutions to generate code of APIs then bundle into complete package as docker containers and have getting the test artifacts like functional and performance testcases. This is complete solution for API / microservice based development and has a lot of potential. It would be good to see what are your next steps as product has a lot of features. All the best for the product and I am excited to know your journey from here :)

@manish_joon Thanks Manish. You are spot on. Custom apis are completely missed out. Thank you for your feedback.

@rams_211 Hi Ram hope you're well. Here's my review: Conektto is awesome! I used both Design and Test Studios, and really appreciated the low/no-code platform's features to design API artifacts (spec; code; mocks; test data, cases, suites) through its drag-and-drop interface, without needing to resort to legacy, code-first JSON/YAML. It's clear a focus on collaboration and hyper-automation are central to Conekkto's value proposition. The design/build/test features are elegant and intuitive, and the speed/cost efficiencies are second-to-none (connectors: SQL Server, Postgres, MongoDB, MySQL). Also noteworthy is the one-click API lifecycle artifact generation from unified OpenAPI specification source which greatly accelerate automation, solving the unmet need and pain point of slow, siloed processes, needless API expense, and development friction. The free Community tier has unlimited design to test drive the product, and the Pro plan expands unlimited access to several more features. Highly recommend Conekkto! Congratulations on your launch! Best of luck with your product and roadmap. Cheers!

@sfali789 Thank you. Our next launch in few weeks will be Aggregate API designer - meaning connect any api with any api, design an entire business flow and generate downstream artifacts. We setup our partnership with Microsoft in October for using PowerFx, the low code business logic engine that was already integrated with OpenAI back then. Additionally ton of features focussed on API compliance and governance. But before all of that, we have a big news coming around how we would like to empower Product Managers with knowledge on API. Stay tuned for more updates on that shortly. Ton of engineering went into and great to see the acceptance from the community. We doubled our user base today. Extremely thankful to commenters, hunters and all PH team members to make this happen. Yet, miles to go before we sleep!!
