What's an API mean in this context? Is this the workflow? Upload a BOM, gerbers, drill files, pick and place files, test plan, and they outsource it to a board house and contract manufacturer?

That's the basic idea yes. We dont just outsource to the CM though, we're integrating deeply with them.

The API statement is a bit premature, right now the only client is our own AngularJS app, but it's coming.
