[Product Hunt]( [Read in browser]( [This newsletter is brought to you by]( TOP NEWS Happy Tuesday! In today’s digest, I’m covering a new API client that fosters deeper collaboration and helps dev build stuff faster. But first… The headlines: 📊 [Anthropic is launching a new fund to create better AI benchmarks](. 🚲 [DJI, the drone company is seemingly getting into e-bikes.]( 🎧 [Spotify is testing emergency alerts for things like natural disasters in Sweden.]( PRODUCT HIGHLIGHT [This new API client wants to help developers collaborate and ship faster]( Did you know that the first [API was created in the 1940s](? British scientists Maurice Wilkes and David Wheeler worked on a software library for an early computer. They stored the subroutines on punched paper tape in a filing cabinet, which we would call API documentation today. API development has come a long way since the days of punched paper tape and filing cabinets, but it’s not always a field of roses. Developers frequently encounter challenges in managing the API lifecycle, ensuring integration, maintaining collaboration, and resolving debugging issues. That’s where a tool like [ApyHub Fusion]( comes in. It’s marketed as an all-in-one API development client focusing on team collaboration. The interface takes on a familiar, Notion-esque design, built to foster deeper collaboration and make it easier to write great documentation. ApyHub Fusion comes with real-time collaboration features right out of the box, like the type you would see in Figma and Google Docs. Everyone — from frontend and backend developers to QA, technical writers, and product managers — can view, discuss, and collaborate on API specs, tests, and documentation in real-time. According to CEO [Samuel Kaluvuri](, one of the things that separates ApyHub from other legacy API clients is that each aspect of an API request is modular and composable, including headers, query parameters, form inputs, JSON bodies, and scripts. This gives developers much more flexibility in how APIs are built and how the documentation is written. Alongside that, it also comes with slash commands to easily bring up different functions and an AI assistant that, according to the team, can save engineering teams up to 60% of the time that would be spent on building. It’s also keyboard-first, so you can ditch the mouse and scroll wheel and fly around your docs with the stroke of a key. [Check it out]( Sponsored By Ready to bring voice features to life, but unsure where to start?
