Hi!
I'm Mathilde, the CEO of Front (frontapp.com), the inbox of businesses: we aggregate all conversations (think email, chat, support, Twitter, Facebook, text messages, etc.) in one place, so teams can work on them efficiently.
Today we’re launching an API that lets you send data to and pull data from Front, to make your productivity boom. We’ve already seen cool stuff built with this API: from Magic copycats launched in less than an hour, to bots taking requests from Slack channels and processing them with “super-human assistants”, there is plenty of room left for creativity. Have fun!
Happy to answer any question :)

@collinmathilde we are also trying to solve the same challenge in a slightly different manner. Will take FrontApp for a spin. Congrats

@collinmathilde would be interesting to see how the #ux turns out :-)

Congrats to the Front team for this launch! We recently built our integration with "Custom inboxes", and it was really easy/fast :)

Heard you on YC's startup school radio, congrats on the launch! Hugely valuable for product teams who regularly need to collect and respond to user feedback and feature requests.

Congrats Mathilde and Front team! We are using it for a human/bot managed inbox and think it's pretty slick! The API will be great for us!
Our company uses Front extensively and we find it to be a great tool to interact with our customers. Our dev team can't wait to play with the API :)

Hey @collinmathilde this is very similar to what we have been conceptualizing internally to build for our own use :) I will be digging into it with our development peeps - all the best to you and your team!
I'll be honest, I don't think you're selling the product very well on that API landing page. It's pretty bare bones. Also the blue w/ black w/ bullet points isn't helping matters. For a launch like this, couldn't you throw in a few images of the API in action?
