Developer‑friendly social media API wrapper (Late-style)

API‑first wrapper around official social platform APIs (Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, LinkedIn) sold per connected account.

Summary

Build an API‑first platform that wraps official social platform APIs, handles permissions and rate limits, and provides clear developer docs, API keys, logs and webhooks. Monetize via tiered plans that charge per connected account (plus an unlimited plan). Distribute through Google organic content and targeted Google Search ads.

Problem

Existing platform APIs are complex, expensive to access at scale, and many tools lack clear documentation for developers.

Target customer

Developers, product teams, and agencies building integrations or automations that need programmatic access to social platforms.

Solution

Provide a single unified API that abstracts platform differences, manages permissions and publishing, exposes developer docs, and offers a simple UI for account management and API keys.
