Larry Fitzgerald Jr joins investor roster at 'API anything' startup Deck
Deck has added former Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Larry Fitzgerald Jr. as a strategic investor and launched an "Impossible Integrations" campaign.
Retired NFL player Larry Fitzgerald Jr has backed an innovative software company that's attempting to 'turn the web into an API'.
The company, Deck, is an infrastructure platform that allows its users to ship integrations in one prompt and maintain reliable connections to over 100,000 systems, including those without APIs, without unreliable scrapers.
As well as investing, Fitzgerald Jr is featuring in a new campaign, "Impossible Integrations," which the tech firm says draws a parallel between Fitzgerald’s hands and Deck’s ability to catch and secure complex integrations.
“I’m excited to support Deck’s vision to empower developers to build boldly and ship confidently,” said Larry Fitzgerald Jr.
Deck CEO Yves-Gabriel Leboeuf, meanwhile, highlighted that the platform handles authentication and anti-bot defenses so teams can stop maintaining broken scripts and focus on shipping value.
“Larry Fitzgerald’s career was built on doing the hard work to make difficult plays look routine. That is exactly what Deck does for developers,” he said. “We handle the heavy lifting of authentication and anti-bot defenses so teams can stop maintaining broken scripts and start shipping value.”
