Example Use Cases for APIs/SDKs

• Integration into Existing Marketplaces: Suppose an existing freelance platform wants to integrate CRE8’s escrow for crypto payments. They could use the SDK to create listings in parallel on CRE8 when users list on their site, and use the API to manage escrow when a user opts to use blockchain settlement.

• Automation and Bots: A service provider might use the API to automatically list a new service every week, or adjust prices based on demand. They could also use it to fetch new orders and integrate with their project management tools. E.g., a developer could write a script to fetch any new purchase every hour via the API and then send themselves a text or create a Trello card for the task.

• Analytics Dashboards: Third parties could use public endpoints (or require user auth for personal data) to analyze trends – e.g., average price of services, categories with most activity, top earners (by analyzing on-chain events and using API to resolve user-friendly data).

• Custom Frontends or Niche Marketplaces: Because CRE8’s backend is open via API, someone could build a niche front-end that focuses only on a category (say, a “Devs on Chain” site focusing only on software development gigs via CRE8) and use the APIs to read/write data, while all actual transactions still settle through CRE8’s contracts.

• Mobile Apps by Third Parties: Although CRE8 has its own mobile apps, a third party could incorporate parts of CRE8 into their own app. For instance, a wallet provider might integrate CRE8 marketplace browsing inside their wallet app, using the APIs to fetch listings and the SDK to let users buy services directly from their wallet interface.
