The Europe PMC APIs are used by academic institutes, commercial industries, publishers, funders, infrastructure providers, text mining groups, open science apps and tools, and Research Information (CRIS) systems. The APIs are a powerful tool for programmatic users, enabling access to open content and metadata for building diverse applications for discovery of biomedical data.
For more information about the APIs, see the Developers overview, and the Europe PMC Tech blog.
We use EuropePMC API in our citation harvesting pipeline. Europe PMC has a well documented, reliable, and production-ready API allowing any user and service to build an open ecosystem of tools that empowers researchers.

The EPMC API is well designed and well documented, and has allowed a high quality integration between Elements and Europe PubMed Central. It is frequently updated, but the changes are thoughtful and the versioning system is clear.
