Comment on Apiary: Beautiful API docs, raises seed round, adds premium features

Comments

I'm bit biased. I'm running a marketplace for APIs since 2010 but defining itself like the largest API Hub is a bit false. It's doesn't matter how many APIs you have, since the majority of those are "fake, draft, etc" not real working APIs, they are mocks. What makes you substantial is: 1) # of API transactions passing via you "apps in production running on you", 2) # of total active developers in your community "hub = consumers + providers not just one side" 3) money "enterprise customers, revenue, subscriptions, etc"

Real activity, not mocks.
