API Development Platform That Generates the Backend for You
APIGenerator covers the whole life of an API: design from a source, endpoints, auth, docs, tests, hosting, versioning, MCP tools for agents and code export. Here is everything it does.
GET/v1/appointments?sort=-starts_at
POST/v1/appointments
GET/v1/appointments/{id}
PATCH/v1/appointments/{id}
POST/v1/appointments/{id}/cancel

Hand-built backend vs the APIGenerator platform
| Topic | Hand-built backend | APIGenerator |
|---|---|---|
| CRUD, auth, pagination | Written for every project | Generated from the source |
| OpenAPI or GraphQL schema | Maintained by hand | Generated and kept in sync |
| Docs and request examples | Drift from the code | Regenerated on every change |
| Contract tests | Added late | Present from the first deployment |
| MCP tools for agents | A separate build | Generated with the API |
| Keys, limits, analytics | Built in house | Included |
| Leaving | Already your code | Code export on every plan |
