API Management is for everyone. It’s time to talk about it that way.

API Management should be reframed as API Experience to better engage and educate diverse audiences across organizations. Despite being fundamental to modern businesses, APIs often remain unrecognized due to the technical jargon that excludes less technical team members. By shifting the narrative from management to experience, the aim is to bridge the gap between technical and non-technical stakeholders, fostering collaboration and inclusivity. This approach encourages organizations to focus on the broader impacts of APIs, such as improved product, customer, and brand experiences, aligning with how companies like Amazon and Stripe have prioritized API interactions. The proposed shift in language seeks to inspire ownership across teams, emphasizing outcomes that resonate with all levels of technical expertise, thus ensuring APIs are seen as a critical component of business operations.
