Executive Summary

Engineering organizations of all sizes — from SMB teams to 8 million global developer orgs — are building and buying dozens of AI tools and services, and they increasingly lack a single source of truth for what tools exist, who can call them, and how data flows between them. The result is secret sprawl, fragile glue code, audit gaps, and security exposure that fall on platform engineers, security teams, and AI product owners to remediate. You could build a unified registry and orchestration layer that inventories tools, maps them to a function-calling schema, exposes standardized adapters and SDKs, enforces role-based access and policy-driven governance, and provides runtime orchestration, observability, and audit trails. Delivered as a SaaS with on-prem connectors, a $4K average contract value per org implies a $32.0B addressable market if you reach a fraction of the 8M developer orgs, but the product will need a large catalog of integrations and a frictionless developer UX to drive adoption. This market is unusually attractive now because three converging trends accelerate demand: LLM-driven agentization that treats external APIs as tools, model-supported function-calling that enables generic adapters, and enterprises pushing governance controls into AI flows; together they create immediate buying signals from security and platform teams. Competition is medium — incumbent API gateways, workflow engines, and native cloud tooling exist — but the window to define a standards-first orchestration layer is open and growing. To stand out you must be pragmatic: prioritize a small set of high-value adapters, ship robust governance and audit capabilities with compliance attestations, and provide a low-code orchestration surface that reduces integration time from months to days. The challenges are real — achieving distribution against cloud providers and proving ROI to conservative security teams — but a focused, standards-aligned product that demonstrably reduces incidents and developer toil can capture a defensible niche.
