Case Study: Lithic delivers better developer experience with Stainless

API-first fintech company delivers on their brand promise

Lithic, a financial technology platform, needed to provide an excellent developer experience for its clients using its API but faced challenges with an imperfect OpenAPI spec and the time-consuming process of having customers build their own integrations. The vendor, Stainless, was engaged to help refine their API specification and to generate Software Development Kits (SDKs).

Stainless solved this by automating the generation and maintenance of SDKs in multiple languages, which streamlined integration for Lithic's clients. The results were significant; businesses could now issue cards in just 20 minutes, and Lithic saved the equivalent of one full-time developer's salary per language supported. The Stainless SDKs also eliminated bug reports and played a key role in fulfilling Lithic's brand promise of a superior developer experience.
