If I understood correctly, you are connecting directly with each utility company's API and exposing your own API.
Are their APIs used for bill payments? is yours?
- traviswingo 10y agoYes, we connect with each utility company API and expose our own. Each utility API is a little bit different, so we simplify this sort of the way segment simplified analytics integrations or Plaid simplified bank account integrations. Their APIs are read-only, no bill paying through them. We can see different types of data, though, from usage to billing intervals.
- 1_listerine_pls 10y agoDo you register with these companies to use their APIs or are they exposed to everyone? Are you planning to monetize it as subscription?
- traviswingo 10y agoWe have to register as a company with a tax ID. We plan to open it up as a flat subscription model based on the amount of requests required. There will be a free "developer" plan that allows unlimited use with request limits.
