Key Takeaways

  • Amplify has evolved from API gateway to multi-pattern integration platform, building each capability on what came before rather than replacing it.
  • AI governance isn’t a new direction for Axway, but a natural extension of decades of expertise in securing and governing enterprise data flows.
  • The same systems enterprises already rely on, like APIs, MFT, and B2B, are becoming part of the AI execution path, making trusted integration infrastructure more critical than ever.
  • Thousands of enterprises across the most demanding industries already trust Axway. That proven foundation is exactly what the AI era requires.

If staying abreast of the AI revolution were just a matter of investing in the flashiest new models, more enterprises would be reaping the benefits by now. But it is never that simple. Seasoned industry leaders know that the biggest challenge these days is making it all work together.

Teams aren’t starting from a clean slate. They’re working across fragmented systems, siloed data, and increasing regulatory pressure, all while being asked to move faster. They need a partner they can trust to help them navigate this.

That’s where Axway comes in.

Our technology is designed to solve precisely these challenges. As Amplify General Manager Mourad Jaakou outlined in another blog, many vendors today can only expertly address one slice of the problem, as opposed to offering a holistic, multi-pattern integration foundation to truly operationalize AI safely and at scale.

Axway is uniquely positioned because AI governance isn’t really a new direction: it is a natural extension of decades of expertise in APIs, gateways, and enterprise integration, applied to a rapidly expanding and more complex landscape.

Equally important, Axway is a proven partner in the most challenging industries and use cases.

Here’s why thousands of enterprises across the most demanding industries already rely on Amplify,  and why that trust continues to be foundational in the age of AI.

The Amplify advantage: built through every phase of enterprise integration

Amplify has continuously evolved alongside the enterprises it serves.

It began with an API gateway, and as APIs became core enterprise infrastructure, Amplify grew into what the industry came to call full-lifecycle API management: the ability to design, deploy, secure, and manage APIs end to end.

Enterprise API adoption was just getting started. Organizations soon found themselves managing APIs across multiple gateways, clouds, and teams. Axway recognized early that only a federated approach that governs APIs wherever they live could provide real oversight at scale.

That bet paid off. Axway has been named a Leader in the Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for API Management ten times,¹ receiving the highest score for the Distributed API Management Use Case for three consecutive years.2

With Amplify, enterprises gain a unified view and control of their entire API ecosystem, whether on-premises, cloud-based, or third-party.

Axway was also positioned as a Leader in the IDC MarketScape: Worldwide API Management 2026 Vendor Assessment.4

But managing APIs well was only part of the equation. Enterprises also needed them to generate business value. Teams and partners need to discover, adopt, and reuse APIs efficiently. Amplify Engage emerged to address this need: a marketplace-driven approach to turning APIs into business assets, not just technical endpoints.

The impact has been tangible. CoVantage Credit Union delivers new API-powered services 85% faster using Amplify. Bosch Digital uses Amplify to curate over 2,000 secured APIs for internal and external developers, handling some 200 million API calls per month.

“The open and active collaboration between Axway and Bosch will help us deliver new, data-driven
solutions to customers all over the world,” says David Geiger, Head of API Management at Bosch Digital.

On G2, customers consistently rate Amplify 4.4 out of 5, with verified users calling it “powerful, scalable, and easy to use” and “a key enabler of digital transformation.”

These capabilities didn’t replace what came before; they built on it. Amplify API Management remains at the core of the platform, now complemented by tools that extend its value into adoption, integration, and AI governance.

Enterprise complexity has hardly slowed since then—quite the contrary. What customers tell us they need now is deceptively simple:

  • A way to connect everything without rebuilding it
  • A way to govern APIs and data across teams and environments
  • A way to confidently bring AI into the business

That’s exactly what Amplify’s newest capabilities are designed to deliver.

The next evolution: from iPaaS to (AI) control plane

The pattern behind Amplify’s evolution has always been the same: listen to what enterprises actually need, then build on what already works.

Today, that need is unmistakable. AI agents are multiplying. They consume APIs, trigger workflows, access sensitive data, and operate across clouds, partners, and legacy systems… often autonomously.

Natural language capabilities might simplify the end user experience, but for enterprises, AI makes the backend exponentially more complex. And it’s amplifying the integration and governance challenges that already existed.

As Axway Chief Product Officer Meetesh Patel recently put it: the job to be done hasn’t changed—it’s how the job gets done that’s shifting. Enterprises still need security, integration, and scale. But now they also need to govern how AI interacts with all of it.

Amplify Fusion is Axway’s answer to this moment. It unifies APIs, applications, events, file-based exchanges, and data—across legacy and modern environments—into a single integration and orchestration layer. Rather than requiring enterprises to rebuild what they have, Fusion connects what already exists and brings it under a unified control plane, so teams can build once and reuse everywhere.

Dutch mobility insurer Bovemij Verzekeringen has been using Amplify Fusion to modernize legacy systems without disruption, reducing manual work and FTE costs. Early successes highlight a low-risk, gradual approach to scaling modern integrations.

But Fusion is more than an iPaaS or a hybrid integration platform (HIP). Because it is built on Axway’s proven gateway and governance foundation, it extends naturally into AI governance. Amplify Fusion gives enterprises the ability to control how AI models and agents access their systems, enforce policies across distributed environments, and maintain the traceability and compliance that regulated industries demand.

It’s the same discipline Axway has applied to APIs and integration for decades, now extended to AI.

With a 5-star rating on Gartner Peer Insights, early adopters are already validating this. As one enterprise customer shared: “Integration with existing systems is smooth… with robust security.”

What this looks like in practice:

  • A bank connecting AI models to live transaction data to improve fraud detection without exposing core systems
  • A manufacturer linking predictive maintenance AI to IoT and ERP data, governed end to end
  • A healthcare organization enabling AI-driven insights while maintaining strict data residency and compliance controls

And it doesn’t stop at integration and AI governance. With the explosion of AI, the complexity and risk it can bring multiply the need for control exponentially. It’s why we extended federation beyond APIs, bringing AI assets such as MCP servers and agents under the same governance model through Amplify Engage.

Just as Engage made it possible to discover, adopt, and reuse APIs across teams and partners, it’s now expanding to give enterprises the same visibility and control over their AI assets. And, when they are ready, productization and monetization are the next steps for deriving value from these valuable digital assets.

The goal is consistent governance across the entire digital ecosystem, from APIs to integrations and AI, as organizations prepare to operate AI at scale.

Why enterprises stay with Axway

Amplify’s evolution tells one part of the story. The other part is simpler: enterprises trust Axway because the partnership delivers, year after year.

Axway’s Net Promoter Score has risen steadily over six consecutive years, reaching 55 in 2025, placing Axway at the top of the range in an industry where the average sits at 41. We believe this sustained growth came from consistently showing up for customers in the moments that matter most.

And those customers aren’t experimenting at the margins. Leading enterprises rely on Axway to move, integrate, and govern their most sensitive data, whether through APIs, managed file transfer, or B2B/EDI exchanges:

  • 9 of the top 10 global manufacturers
  • 3 out of 4 major credit card companies
  • 17 of the top 20 pharmaceutical companies

In the age of AI, these aren’t separate concerns: AI agents don’t just call APIs. They request and generate files, trigger partner workflows, and orchestrate long-running business exchanges. The systems enterprises already depend on, such as API management, MFT infrastructure, and B2B integration, are becoming part of the AI execution path whether organizations plan for it or not.

Our track record speaks for itself; in an era where AI is expanding the attack surface and regulatory scrutiny is intensifying, Axway maintains one of the strongest security records in the category.

Amplify API Management remains at the core of the platform today, just as it has for over a decade. Every capability Axway has added since, from Amplify Engage to Amplify Fusion and the AI gateway capabilities, has been built to extend that foundation, not replace it.

Earlier this year, Axway CEO Roland Royer put it this way:

“Axway’s deep expertise in security, integration, and federated governance positions Axway as a trusted enabler for enterprises seeking to secure and govern data exchange in this new era of AI.”

Unify Integration. Scale AI with Confidence.

Enterprises today need a smarter way to bring everything together. Axway’s proven multi-pattern integration heritage is a strategic advantage for this age.

By unifying diverse integration styles under a common control framework, enterprises can operationalize AI at scale while maintaining security, compliance, and operational resilience. Axway helps you:

  • Connect systems without disruption
  • Govern APIs and data at scale
  • Turn AI into real, secure business value

With Amplify, you’re building on a foundation that’s been proven across the most demanding industries in the world. That’s why organizations continue to rely on Axway as a trusted partner in the AI era.
