Sep 3, 2024 · Season 10 · Episode 1 · 27 min
Making building API's seamless and easy
Sagar Batchu was born in Sacramento, but moved to Bangalore after a decade. He has always been interested in how things work, and majored in Physic at his University. Towards the end of his studies, he crammed in a ton of CS classes and fell in love with the craft. He's worked on firmware, enterprise software, and eventually went to LiveRamp, building new experiences for them. Outside of tech, he loves pickleball, enjoys growing coffee and loves readying about historical events.
In his past, Sagar and his team took on API initiative to invest in internal API experience. Through this project, he spent a lot of time thinking about how to make this happen. He immediately saw the need across the industry, with the absence of time and money to fill the need. He decided to take it on and start a company.
This is the creation story of Speakeasy.
