Kiro helped us build the most complex thing that we could ever build.
And honestly, I still can’t believe the speed at which everything happened.
We built something called Stitch API.
It solves a real problem we face every single day as both founders and developers.
I’m not exaggerating — this is literally the tool I always wished existed.

Why Stitch API Exists
Founders keep switching between too many dashboards.
Calendars here.
Analytics there.
News somewhere else.
Stock prices on another tab.
Meeting tools.
Notes tools.
Tools for tools.
It becomes a mess very quickly.
Developers have a completely different but equally painful problem.
Every product we build depends on so many APIs.
LLM model APIs.
YouTube Data API.
Payment APIs.
Notification APIs.
Everything scattered, everything separate.
Both sides suffer.
Both sides repeat the same work.
Both sides waste time.
So we decided to unify EVERYTHING into one simple, clean interface.
One place for founders.
One place for developers.
One place for every API, every service, every integration.
That became Stitch API.
The Original Plan Was Impossible
I’ll be honest.
If we had to build this the traditional way, it would easily take more than a month of senior developer effort.
And that’s not even counting testing, fixing all the integration issues, and wiring everything together.
This is the type of product that normally requires:
• backend systems
• API routing
• rate limiting
• unified dashboards
• multiple service connections
• authentication layers
• UI polishing
• and a LOT of glue code
It wasn’t supposed to be a “one week” project.
But then we used Kiro.
What Changed When We Used Kiro
This is the part that shocked us.
We started by generating specs in Kiro.
Kiro immediately produced three complete task files — and those task files basically structured the entire product.
Those three files helped us build almost 90% of the full application.
From backend logic.
To API structure.
To functionality breakdown.
To clean workflow.
Everything was just… there.
And the experience didn’t stop there.
We used wipe-code to complete the remaining parts.
The flow felt natural.
The process felt smooth.
The clarity was unbelievable.
This is honestly the fastest I’ve ever shipped something this complex.
The Most Mind-Blowing Part: API Integrations
One thing that usually eats most of the time is API integration.
Connecting everything.
Handling errors.
Fixing mismatched responses.
Dealing with edge cases.
But this time…
Kiro handled the ENTIRE API integration process.
No manual interruption.
No spending hours reading documentation.
No trial and error.
Kiro just did it.
And it felt like magic.
Stitch API Is Now Live
Today, Stitch API brings one place where both founders and developers can manage every service and every API they use.
And I genuinely mean it — Kiro played a major role in making this possible so quickly.

How Kiro Changed My Approach to Building
Before Kiro, I used to think in terms of weeks and months.
After using Kiro, I started thinking in terms of days.
Instead of planning how much time something will take, I started thinking:
“How fast can Kiro help me turn this into an executable product?”
This shift is huge.
It changes how fast we experiment.
It changes how fast we validate ideas.
It changes how fast we ship.
It changes how fast we grow.
This tool genuinely changed the way I approach development.
My Honest Conclusion
I’m not writing this because of a competition.
I’m writing this because the experience I had with Kiro was completely unexpected.
It removed friction.
It removed complexity.
It removed the bottlenecks that normally slow us down.
And it allowed us to build something we’re genuinely proud of.
Stitch API exists today because of that speed.
And that speed exists because of Kiro.
