I am working on something related. But not for charts etc.

Interesting. Did you look into this Rapid API stuff as well?

I wonder if smaller companies/projects creating APIs suffer from people not trusting longevity enough to build on top of them, but I'm not sure if Rapid API has found a solution to this problem.

I think that's an excellent point. I think rapidapi.com is great for hobbyist or people starting out. If you are going to use an API for your company, I think you would like to deal with the API provider directly so you can have things like SLAs, etc. Since everything is an API that's something really easy to setup.

So would you say RapidAPI would be better off as a discovery service as opposed to a provider?

I think the value of RapidAPI comes from discovery (which I'm not sure if anyone uses for discovery) and payments. It's really slick setting up and enforcing pricing plans. But I think if you're serious in using an API you're going to need an agreement with the provider.

Yes. Check it here https://rapidapi.com/motyar/api/bruzu/

Your site looks really interesting. What would you say your largest challenge has been?

Thanks.
