Request // Response Episode 4: API Security, LLMs, and Internal Developer Tools

In this episode of the podcast "Request & Response," Sinan Eren, CEO and co-founder of Opnova, discusses the company's efforts to automate enterprise systems that lack modern APIs, focusing on industries such as healthcare and finance. Opnova uses Robotic Process Automation (RPA) and large language models to replicate user actions in systems without APIs, bridging the gap in automation capabilities. The conversation covers the emerging importance of standards like the Model Context Protocol (MCP) and the analogy of APIs as the new sitemaps, essential for tool discoverability in AI-driven ecosystems. Eren also highlights the concern of an "API tax," where API access is restricted to higher pricing tiers, and emphasizes the transitional role of browser automation until APIs become more universally adopted. The discussion underscores the growing necessity for companies to adopt APIs to remain competitive in the evolving digital landscape.
