Today, 3rd party data consumption means...
  • API throttling & high latency
  • Competing protocols
  • One-off data integrations
  • Identity discovery challenges
  • More grunt work than any of us like to do
None of these issues are insurmountable, most are not even complicated. They're hassles. An exponentially growing set of hassles that distract you from the features of your service that your users actually care about. Gnip is here to help. We make it easy to aggregate user data so that you can focus on doing something cool with it. Here's our API.
