While APIs make it simple to share data back and forth between applications, the process of managing APIs can be anything but simple.

With Postman, developers can simplify every step of building and managing APIs — from development and testing to collaboration and support — so that more people can design APIs with simplicity, usability and consistency. In our most recent episode of our podcast, Decoded, we spoke with Arlemi Turpault, developer advocate at Postman, to learn more about how Postman started and how it grew to become one of the most popular API management tools today. According to Turpault, Postman began as a side project for the company’s now-CEO to make it easier for him to debug APIs.

From there, the company turned to making the API process more collaborative, with API libraries that let teams share APIs and documentation to improve access and speed to market.
