You're still doing API security manually in 2026? 2016: 100 APIs → Could handle with smart people doing manual pen testing 2020: 1,000 APIs → Difficult but possible 2025: 10,000+ APIs → Physically impossible Long ago we did API security manually.

Every organization will realize: we can't do this manually anymore.
