Hey, this is a great idea! Are you going to put out an API for this?

You should elaborate on whether you mean an affiliate API or something else. An API means nothing when the subject is a user-catered service

Ok sure, let me elaborate. Will you have an API where I'll be able to send a request with a gif and an address to send it to, similar to lob?

Hi! Yes, we are planning on having a way to integrate with Gifpop. We're talking to a few gif app makers and hopefully will have something put together soon!

(for the interested, we're currently built on node and express, which has been really great for prototyping and building out new endpoints that require lots of processing. our previous website, http://meshu.io, was built on python/django)

Awesome! Thanks for your answer. Looking forward to that.

Yes thanks! If you have a specific usecase, please feel free to email omg@gifpop.io and we'll let you know when we have more information!
