StepZen (acquired by IBM) auto-generates GraphQL APIs from REST endpoints, databases, and other sources. Declarative approach to API composition.
Reviewer scorecard
“This fills a real gap in the ecosystem. Worth adopting early.”
“Been using this for 3 months — it's become indispensable.”
“API composition will be important but AI-powered approaches may replace declarative GraphQL generation.”
“The team ships fast and responds to feedback. Good sign.”
“GraphQL-as-a-service is a solution looking for a larger market. Most teams that want GraphQL can build it.”
“IBM acquisition slowed development. The auto-generation from REST to GraphQL was interesting but the market moved on.”
