VERDICT

Should I use API Navigator?

Find the best public APIs faster: structured metadata, availability signals, and powerful filtering. - public-api.org

Depends. Fine as a casual lookup for developers hunting public APIs. Anyone needing vetted data, pricing transparency, or vendor accountability should use established directories instead.

Confidence

Low. Based on ~50 public sources; nearly all describe same-named products (Box, Archman, browser navigator APIs), not this site. Low confidence.
