Out of the Box

Tyk API Management platform includes an API dashboard, developer portal and powerful analytics, out of the box.

Full out of the box features list

No need to maintain forks, third party dependencies, or purchase SaaS add-ons. Just download the free Open Source API Gateway, get a free developer licence for Tyk dashboard, and use Tyk non-commercially… for free.

You only pay us when you want to use the Tyk Dashboard commercially, not to add features. The open source gateway is free forever.

  1. Detailed Monitoring and Analytics

    Tyk Open Source API Gateway records detailed analytics about how your APIs are being used, view hourly data that can be easily segmented, track upstream latency and chart it for each API you are managing.

  2. API Developer Portal

    Publish your managed APIs to your customisable, mobile-enabled API portal and let developers manage their own keys, sign up and enroll to your APIs, with a flexible workflow and developer analytics.

  3. API Documentation

    Publish your API Documentation to your portal using Swagger (OpenAPI 2.0 and 3.0 JSON files are supported) or API Blueprint, let users interact with your API using Swagger UI’s sandbox right from your portal.
