APIs Break. That's Why Toqool Has a Keeper.
The downside of owning code is that code can break when a platform changes its API. The Keeper is the fix: a warranty that keeps your owned connectors current.
Here is the honest objection to owning your API connectors: APIs change. Platforms deprecate endpoints, rotate authentication, rename fields and tighten rate limits, often with little warning. When that happens, an integration that worked last month simply stops. If you own the code, is that suddenly your problem?
API decay is normal, not rare
Every platform evolves its API. It is a sign the platform is alive. The side effect is that any integration built on top of it slowly rots unless someone maintains it. This is true whether you rent the connector or own it. The only question is who does the upkeep.
- Authentication methods get replaced, and old tokens stop working.
- Endpoints are versioned, then retired on a deadline.
- Fields get renamed, split, or dropped, quietly breaking reports.
- Rate limits change, and yesterday's sync pattern starts failing.
What the Keeper is
The Toqool Keeper is our answer to that objection: a warranty for the connectors you own. For 49 euros a year, we watch the platforms whose connectors you bought, and when an API changes, we ship you the updated code before the change breaks your setup.
- We monitor the APIs behind the connectors you own.
- When a platform changes something that matters, we update the connector.
- You get the corrected code, so the thing you own keeps working.
- Your first year of Keeper is included when you buy a connector.
Why it is a separate, optional line
We keep the Keeper separate from the connector price on purpose. The connector is a real thing you own outright, with no strings. The Keeper is the one genuinely recurring cost in the model, because keeping up with changing APIs is genuinely ongoing work. You should pay for what is actually a service, and own what is actually a product.

Owning your connectors is the right default. The Keeper is what makes that default hold up on the day a platform decides to change the rules.
