Congrats on the launch, the new website looks really nice!

Thanks for the support! Agree with your sentiment, we talked to many users about how best they like to extend their API, and found that the modular approach was best for popular services like Stripe, Auth0, and so on. And for the rest of the custom workflows, we've provided the ability to extend your API with your own custom logic through synchronous and asynchronous hooks that can call out to any web service that you may have hosted anywhere, whether it be on AWS Lambda, Azure Functions, Webtask, or even self-hosted. If you're in the portal, you can check it out under the "Logic" tab.
