WunderGraph - Cohort #2 - Workers Launchpad Demo Day

Hi, my name is Stefan, and I'm the co -founder of Wundergraf. Wundergraf is the end-to-end solution for API integration. Integrating APIs costs developers time, as well as headaches and companies money. Wundergraf aims to redefine the experience. What Docker did for applications, Wundergraf is doing for APIs. Installing APIs into your system got as easy as integrating a code package. Allow me to explain. Unifying all the APIs into a single format is a paradigm shift. Before, there wasn't a single place to integrate REST, SOAP, GraphQL, and gRPC. Any API protocol, it didn't exist before, until now. Wundergraf is changing how we integrate APIs, and developers love us. Currently, we have 1,800 stars on GitHub, 55 external contributors to our open -source repo, over 900 members on our Discord, all with a minimum marketing spend of $0. Not only do developers love us, but enterprises need us. These are some of the POC and negotiations that we currently have in place with some of the largest enterprises in the world, such as Walmart, SAP, TripAdvisor, and Axion. Thaler is a YC-backed company that just signed a contract for $10K per month for 12 months. Some of the biggest partnerships we also have in hand are Oracle, Fauna, Netlify, and Vercel. Together, we partner to give the best API integration experience for our customers. Wundergraf enables the future. These are a selection of the companies currently supported by Wundergraf and using Wundergraf in production. Some of the names that weren't on the previous slide include Crypto.com, Mr. Yum, Suitsupply, and Sanmina. Not only do developers love us and enterprises need us, but the market drives it. They fully depend on APIs and API connectivity, and as a result, the number of APIs is growing exponentially. The number of active APIs is expected to reach 1.7 billion by 2030, by far our growing developer capacity. Wundergraf has the strongest OSS traction despite receiving the lowest amount of funding. Some of the key differentiators between us and our competitors is that we are fully open source. From our gateway to our API generation, all the way to our ORM, we are fully open source. We also follow a local first approach. You develop locally on your machine and then deploy to the cloud or deploy to your on-prem, allowing you the freedom to deploy wherever your developers want to. The biggest differentiator is that there's zero vendor lock-in. We know that large enterprises have legacy systems, and we know that large enterprises already have a tech stack they've been using for years. Wundergraf isn't a platform that needs to pass through compliance or security or anything. It just seamlessly integrates into your stack because it's adaptable to your stack. Whatever technology language you're using, Wundergraf can seamlessly fit into that stack, which separates us from our competitors. There is no need to adopt Wundergraf, just integrate it. And finally, security comes out of the box. Because we never expose a GraphQL endpoint, security comes included. Authentication, caching, authorization, all comes out of the box because of our contrarian approach to never expose a GraphQL API. So far, we've spent $1.5 million of our $3 million seed round, and we are aiming to extend our seed funding by $1 million to qualify for good Series A. This funding will allow us to increase our developer capacity and serve these enterprise customers, as well as establish a driven and successful sales team to further our growth. This will enable us to reach 1 million AR by April 2024 and to open up a Series A window. Wundergraf was established in 2022. We're a global company with 14 employees from eight countries across three continents, with the headquarters in Miami, Florida, and a subsidiary in Frankfurt, Germany. Thank you so much for the time. My name is Stefan. I'm one of the co-founders, and we are Wundergraf.
