About us
We enable, educate, and support API connectivity through innovation & technology
FixSpec is on a mission to change the way financial service organisations understand, create, and maintain API integration.
A decade of experience connecting trading counterparties
Our founders have worked for major exchanges, brokers and software vendors across Europe, Asia, and the U.S. We’ve written API specifications, built systems tools and processes for industry-leading investment banks, exchanges, and trading venues. We’ve seen the inefficiency first-hand and are uniquely positioned to build the innovative solutions needed to make a difference.
