AI and API Development - The industry is entering an era where every website and API must be "Agent-ready" [1][2] - 89% of developers use AI daily, but only 24% design APIs with AI agents in mind [2] - APIs must be well-documented for Agents to easily learn about them, including endpoints, parameters, data, and error recovery [3] Postman's Solution - Postman's AI-ready APIs Playbook emphasizes the importance of machine-readable documentation that stays in sync with the schema [2] - Postman's Agent Mode automatically generates detailed, contextual documentation for APIs based on request/response examples and usage patterns [4] - Postman's platform allows for designing, documenting, publishing, and monitoring APIs that both humans and agents can use reliably [5] Future Implications - Agents will increasingly make purchases, find the best options, and fill out job applications, replacing human roles [6] - Predictable structures, machine-readable metadata, and standardized behavior are crucial for AI-ready APIs [7] - Agents using APIs should not be guessing; everything should be documented for both humans and machines [5]
