Intuit has announced major changes to their API ecosystem, introducing usage-based pricing for developers starting July 28th while simultaneously launching new APIs for inventory adjustments, custom fields, projects, sales tax, and payroll compensation. Hector Garcia joins Alicia and breaks down how these changes will impact everything from app pricing models to the future of third-party integrations, explaining why smaller developers may struggle while larger companies like Bill.com and Avalara will likely absorb the costs. The discussion explores whether this represents a strategic move toward platform consolidation and what it means for the freemium model that many QuickBooks-connected apps currently rely on.
