Maker's Note
Hi, my name is Abhinav. I am a tech executive turned product maker and hobbyist writer.
I am building API based building blocks for businesses and developers - apicagent is the first set of APIs that I have released.
My core hypothesis is that businesses want to focus more on building their core systems and integrate API based blocks for standard features. This way, businesses can reduce their engineering costs as well as ship their products faster.
If you have any suggestions or want to learn more about future roadmap, please don't hesitate to send me an email or talk to me.
