Summary

API product managers (PMs) are responsible for the commercial success of API products from ideation to design, build, launch, enhancement, and sunset.

API PMs must cultivate a deep understanding of API customers, their needs, and the competitive landscape. They use key performance indicators (KPIs) to assess the value of their APIs and support marketing and sales teams with supplemental knowledge. They must have credibility with those who build and use APIs and be insightful to identify new customers and markets for offerings to drive business growth.
