Directus

Directus develops an open-source data platform that intended for transforming SQL into an API for applications. Put simply, it is about publishing, securing and monitoring APIs.

It makes the most sense for platform and developer teams. Related areas on their profile: Database and Developer APIs. As a small product team themselves (11 to 50 people), they tend to serve customers of a similar scale best. Small vendors mean quick answers and real influence on the roadmap, but check who covers support when someone is out.

Directus is based in Brooklyn, New York and founded in 2004. More on directus.io.
