The numbers that
make the argument.

0

APIs Cataloged

Every endpoint documented — rate limits, auth schemes, versioning, deprecation timelines.

0.0h

Avg Audit Turnaround

From API discovery to full benchmark report. Faster than most CI pipelines.

0.0%

Accuracy vs Vendor Docs

Independent measurements vs vendor-reported specs. The gap is where incidents hide.

0

Breaking-Change Alerts Issued

Caught before official changelogs shipped. Your on-call rotation thanks us.

These numbers are a sample. The directory has 4,217 complete API profiles.

Deep Technical Audit

Every API gets a full inspection: authentication flows, rate limit behavior under load, error response consistency, SDK quality scores, and undocumented endpoints found via fuzzing. We read the changelog so you don't have to.

Audit

Multi-Region Benchmarking

Latency measured from 6 global PoPs, every 5 minutes, across P50/P95/P99 percentiles. Rate limits stress-tested. SLA accuracy scored against actual uptime data — not vendor-reported numbers.

Continuous Change Tracking

Deprecations, version bumps, breaking changes in response schemas — tracked before they hit the official changelog. We've issued 2,841 early-warning alerts. Median lead time: 11 days before vendor announcement.

Platform Engineering
"We were 45 minutes from shipping an integration when Endpoint flagged that Plaid had quietly changed their webhook payload schema 9 days prior. That alert saved our on-call rotation. We now run Endpoint before any third-party dependency decision."

45 min from incident
Developer Advocacy3 days → 4 hours
"Writing comparison guides used to mean 3 days of manual testing. Now I pull the Endpoint benchmark report, verify the methodology, and have a credible data-backed draft in 4 hours. The accuracy percentile against vendor docs is the part that makes readers trust the analysis."
Priya Nair
Senior Developer Advocate · Cascade Labs
C-Suite / Build vs BuyBoard-ready decision data
"The build-vs-buy question for our notification layer came down to Twilio, AWS SNS, and a vendor we hadn't heard of. Endpoint's governance scoring and rate-limit stress data gave us the exact numbers our board needed. We made the right call. We know because we measured."
