The Challenge

Scaling API Management

Graylark's rapid growth and the viral success of its photo geolocation AI models created a demand for a scalable, efficient API management system.

Initially, the team manually handled API key generation and customer onboarding through a cumbersome process involving Notion pages and GitHub. This manual approach was time-consuming and not sustainable, especially as larger enterprise clients began to show interest.

Additionally, the complexity and time investment required to set up and maintain traditional API gateways like Tyk and Apigee were significant barriers for the small, resource-constrained team.

Pain Points

  • Manual API key generation
    Time-intensive process requiring developer intervention
  • Time-consuming onboarding process
    Cumbersome workflow using Notion and GitHub
  • Complex API gateway setup
    Traditional solutions required significant configuration
  • Limited resources for maintenance
    Small team unable to dedicate time to API infrastructure
