    👋 Hey DevHunt community! I'm a developer turned solopreneur who built a 6-figure agency. I know the pain of integrating third-party APIs and thought, "Why not solve this for a larger audience?" 🎨 Artists have Spotify, designers have Figma, and writers have Substack. But what about us, developers? We're left with freelancing, consulting, or hackathons for one-time side income. 💰 APIs generate billions annually, yet over 90% don't make a dime. They end up as open-source projects on Github, often dying without proper backing. 🚀 That's why I created Tiny API. Think of it as Substack for developers. Write code for an API the world needs, and collect revenue. We're building for the 25M+ developers out there—88% of whom already code outside of work and more than a third are trying to earn from it. ☕️ No more stitching together loose parts and settling for 'Buy Me a Coffee'. If you have an existing API you're looking to monetise and manage better, reach out to me at shashank@tinyapi.co. Let's change the game. 🛠️

Ready for a game-changer? We help developers turn their APIs into thriving businesses. We manage Billing, Subscribers, Distribution and Support so you can focus on building the best APIs. Built by developers for developers.
