API builders recognized with awards for
dedication to developer experience at POST/CON 2024
Postman, the world’s leading API Platform, today announced the
winners of its inaugural Postman API Network Awards. With over 30
million developers from more than 500,000 companies on the Postman
API Platform, these awards recognize excellence in two categories
based on the experience of developers across the globe: “The Top
Five New APIs“ and “The Twenty-Five Best APIs.”
The Top Five New APIs category recognizes success in building an
active community on the Postman API Network over the last year. The
honorees are Brevo, Discord, Mastercard, Qualtrics, and
HubSpot.
The Twenty-Five Best APIs category is based on usage and
dedication to a great developer experience. The honorees include
Salesforce, Meta, PayPal, Microsoft Graph, Notion, and Klaviyo. The
Full list of winners can be found here.
The APIs selected for these categories were among the most used
on the Postman API Network. Equally important, they showed
consistent investment in improving developer experience measured by
metrics such as the ratio of successful API calls and overall ease
of using the API.
“Everything we do at Postman is about improving the developer
experience around API collaboration,” said Abhinav Asthana,
co-founder and CEO of Postman. “Building a great developer
experience is hard, and these awards recognize the companies who
have worked the hardest alongside us to build APIs that just work
and are easy to learn. With over 100,000 APIs, the Postman API
Network is the world’s largest public API hub, so these awards show
what it takes to be the best in developers' eyes.”
“It’s important to us that our customers get started as fast as
possible with our APIs, and Postman’s helped make that happen,”
said Philippe Ozil, Principal Developer Advocate at Salesforce. “By
leveraging our workspace on the Postman API Network, developers can
explore and test our API collections containing 1,000 request
templates. Since joining the network, we’ve grown to a community of
more than 100,000 developers who can get started in minutes.”
“The Postman API Network has been pivotal for us, especially in
streamlining API documentation and outreach,” said Kimberly
Strauch, Senior Product Manager at Klaviyo. “It’s made our APIs
more accessible to external developers, simplifying onboarding and
accelerating usage. In the last six months, we’ve seen our API
traffic to our Postman public workspace more than double. This
highlights the impact of collaborating with developers by meeting
them where they are on the Postman API Platform.”
The Postman API Network launched in 2017 with 112 APIs. It has
now grown to over 100,000 APIs, serving more than 30 million
developers from over 500,000 companies.
