# AI + API Summit
## Built something interesting with APIs + AI? Tell us the story.
API + AI Summit brings together the builders, architects, and technology leaders shaping how AI systems actually run. If you’ve built something worth sharing, step on stage and show us how it works.
## We’re looking for real-world stories across areas like:
AI systems in production (LLMs, agents, orchestration)
Scalable infrastructure (platforms, Kubernetes, multi-cloud)
API architecture and developer platforms
Security, governance, and zero-trust
Observability and system reliability
Platform engineering and automation
Have another idea? We'd love to hear it.
**Breakout Sessions (25 min): **Short, focused, practical
**Fireside Chats (25 min): **Conversations with builders
**Panels (25 min): **Different perspectives on real challenges
**Workshops (60 min): **Hands-on sessions *(limited availability)*
This isn’t a marketing stage.
No product pitches.
No company overviews.
No “why our platform is amazing.”
If it teaches something real and useful, you’re in the right place.

## Why Speak?
Besides the obvious bragging rights:

- - Connect with the community shaping API + AI connectivity
- - Help push the conversation forward on how modern systems are built
Because the best talks come from people who have actually done the work.
