Why Metlo?

Most businesses have adopted public facing APIs to power their websites and apps. This has dramatically increased the attack surface for your business. There’s been a 200% increase in API security breaches in just the last year with the APIs of companies like Uber, Meta, Experian and Just Dial leaking millions of records. It’s obvious that tools are needed to help security teams make APIs more secure but there’s no great solution on the market.

Some solutions require you to go through sales calls to even try the product while others have you to send all your API traffic to their own cloud. Metlo is the first Open Source API security platform that you can self host, and get started for free right away!
