From API to JSONs
Keep your backend or CMS as the source, but publish stable JSON files that are read from CDN instead of generated on every request.
Smooth Product
Turn your API into a
JSONs served on CDN
Smooth API Accelerator adds a delivery layer on top of your existing backend or CMS. Instead of serving the same dynamic API response again and again, you serve prepared JSON files from CDN and edge infrastructure.
Origin load becomes edge delivery
Clients read the same prepared output from edge locations, so your origin stops doing the same work over and over again.
The product idea
This is not just JSON generation. It is a way to replace repeated origin API reads with a file-based JSON delivery stack served globally.
Step 1
Take existing responses
Start with the API responses you already have in WordPress, Strapi, or your own backend.
Step 2
Publish JSON files
API Accelerator turns those responses into JSON files that become the new delivery layer.
Step 3
Serve from CDN and edge server
Apps and frontends read the prepared files from Smooth CDN instead of repeatedly querying the origin.
WordPress
Transform selected WP REST endpoints into a CDN-served JSON layer for headless and frontend delivery.
Strapi
Turn Strapi Content API responses into prepared JSON files delivered from Smooth CDN.

Guest is a special account type for testing dedicated plugins and custom integrations. Free is the regular self-serve plan for personal projects, experiments, and ongoing use.
Turn your current API into a faster delivery layer
Start from the backend or CMS you already have, then ship JSON files through Smooth CDN instead of scaling repeated API reads at the origin.
