It's interesting, seems like a popular space lately (even within YC). Off the top of my head, there's merge.dev, Terra, Kombo, Workato.

Aside from the obvious question of "how are you different/better?" I'm most curious to know why you're going so broad initially. You've got everything from legal to devtools to gaming. Seems like the opposite of a wedge/beachhead approach. Why?



We evaluated most of these (minus Workato) and landed on Nango. Was by far the most flexible and having the source code available was a big plus (vs. the closed-source alternatives). The team is also reactive to feedback in their Slack community, they even added a few new endpoints for us in < 24 hours


The players you mentioned pre-build standard integrations, in specific categories (e.g. HRIS). We build a platform that lets developers build custom integrations, for any API.

We do offer integration "templates", but it's only a way to get started and templates are meant to be extended.

That's also why our catalog of APIs is extensive. Anybody can rapidly add support for any new API and start building custom integrations for it, and share templates with the community.
