Sydney, New South Wales, Australia
Summary
👤
SeniorAden Forshaw is a serial founder and technology CEO with over a decade building high-scale APIs, developer platforms, and data products from Sydney. He created TheDogAPI and TheCatAPI—used by 150,000+ developers and powering vet-validated, breed-specific datasets and enterprise AI for IoT, insurance and vet-tech—and leads ThatApiCompany, which helps SaaS teams design, ship and monetize APIs and integrations. Aden combines hands-on engineering with product and go-to-market experience across GCP, BigQuery and Vertex AI, and has a track record of scaling developer-first platforms (and profitable adtech at Coull) to billions of interactions. Less obvious: he bridges charity and commerce too, having built donation infrastructure at Folo that links retail transactions to measurable social impact.
