β About
Back in August 2019 I started to use RapidAPI.com for personal Open Innovation (Heroku hosted) API related side projects :
These side projects helped me to learn a lot about API monetization... and pretty soon I started to dream about deploying that kind of technology at an Organizational Level, at OPT-NC.
