Billions of people communicate with each other using words, while billions of computer programs communicate with each other through API. 10 million of the 23 million developers deal with API on a daily basis (according to techcrunch.com). The API market is expanding at a rate of 33% per year (according to marketandmarkets.com).
There is, however, one problem with API – the documentation. There is no easy way to maintain up to date API documentation at all times. As a result, API documentation quickly becomes outdated. This slows down development, increases the amount of errors, and eventually leads to system architectural degradation. Also, development cost increases by 50% or more.
If there was a simple tool that could supply all companies with 100% up-to-date API documentation, it would change the world of API management. The JSight team does exactly that.
