Summary

Stripe's API and documentation quality set the standard the rest of the payments industry gets compared to. It's the go-to for anyone building custom checkout or subscription billing. Non-technical founders usually access it through a platform (Shopify, etc.) rather than integrating directly, since its power really shows for developers.
