How is Apideck different from Nango?Nango is integration infrastructure: it manages auth, credential storage, sync scheduling, and webhooks, but developers write and maintain custom TypeScript functions to fetch and transform data for each API. Apideck is a unified API: normalized data models and full CRUD endpoints are pre-built across 200+ connectors, so there is no per-API integration code to own. Is Nango open source?Nango is source-available under the Elastic License v2, which is not an OSI-approved open-source license. Self-hosting is offered on its Enterprise tier. Apideck is a managed cloud platform with EU hosting and data minimization by design. How does Apideck pricing compare to Nango?Nango has a free testing tier (10 connections) and usage-based plans from $50/month that meter connections, compute hours, function runs, records, and webhooks. Apideck charges per consumer with unlimited API calls per consumer — no compute or per-record metering to forecast. Do I have to write integration code with Nango?Yes — syncs and actions are custom TypeScript “Nango Functions” you write, test, version, and maintain per API, unless a community template covers your use case. With Apideck, the normalized models and CRUD operations ship out of the box. What SDKs does Nango provide?Nango ships an official Node.js backend SDK and a frontend SDK for its Connect UI; its Python SDK is listed as “coming soon”. Apideck ships official SDKs for Node.js, Python, PHP, and .NET. Does Nango support AI agents and MCP?Yes. Nango operates a hosted MCP server and publishes llms.txt — its agent ergonomics are strong. Apideck also operates a hosted MCP server at mcp.apideck.dev, with the difference that agents get normalized tools across categories rather than raw per-API access. Is Nango SOC 2 Type II compliant?Nango lists SOC 2 Type II, GDPR, and HIPAA (BAA) on its security page, with SOC 2 report access and HIPAA noted on its Enterprise tier. Apideck is SOC 2 Type II certified and GDPR compliant on all plans. [Vendor-neutral buyer's guide Still figuring out which unified API is right for you?
