superglue

What is superglue?

superglue is a self-healing open-source data connector designed to simplify complex API integrations by automatically generating, validating, and maintaining data transformation logic. Acting as a proxy, it sits between your application and external or legacy APIs, handling authentication, pagination, error retries, and schema validation. Leveraging large language models, superglue auto-maps and transforms data into exact schemas you define, significantly reducing engineering effort and avoiding vendor lock-in. It supports diverse data sources including APIs, files, and legacy systems, and can be self-hosted or used via a hosted service.

Key Features

• Universal API Proxy

  Intercepts and transforms data from any API or data source in real-time with minimal latency.

• LLM-Powered Data Mapping

  Automatically generates and updates data transformation rules using large language models, enabling flexible and precise schema mapping.

• Self-Healing Schema Validation

  Continuously validates incoming data against defined schemas and auto-corrects transformations when discrepancies occur.

• Comprehensive Protocol Support

  Handles various authentication methods, smart pagination, caching, retries, and multiple file formats including CSV, JSON, and XML.

• Open Source and Fully Customizable

  Provides full access to source code and transformation logic, allowing complete ownership and customization without vendor lock-in.

Use Cases

• Complex API Integrations : Developers can quickly connect and normalize data from diverse and legacy APIs without writing custom integration code.
• Data Normalization for Enterprises : Businesses can standardize data from multiple external systems such as energy meters, retail marketplaces, or fintech platforms.
• Legacy System Modernization : Acts as a proxy to modernize data access for brittle or hard-to-change legacy systems without modifying their codebase.
• Automated Data Pipeline Maintenance : Automatically detects and repairs integration breaks, reducing downtime and maintenance overhead.
