Q: "How is @tellerapi better than X?"
A: Teller has real APIs into each bank while X screenscrapes HTML pages. This makes our API the fastest and most reliable available. If you’ve ever used a screenscraper you’ll know how badly they limit the quality of your product. 2/n

Screenscrapers are dumb and brittle. Many things will break them: layout changes, an unexpected advert before showing accounts, etc. So much of fintech rests on broken Rube Goldberg contraptions made of sticky tape and bubblegum. YOU DESERVE BETTER. USERS DESERVE BETTER. 3/n

Others talk of “opening the financial ecosystem” but can't deliver table stakes functionality. Put random breakages, stale account balances and transactions behind you. Build products on equal footing with banks themselves. THE GAME CHANGES TODAY. teller.io/user/new 4/n

We hypothesised that a combination of Stanford, Patagonia, and Yeezy would render super cool valley peeps powerless to resist dunking on us, thereby greatly expanding the reach of our news. Played like a damn fiddle 🎻
