If your product is completely dependent on a third-party API or service in order to function you really only have two possible exits: 1. Get bought out by the company implementing the API
2. Get shut out by the company implementing the API
This should serve as a cautionary tale: never place the fate of your company in the hands of someone whose interests may not align with yours. |

Corollary: when the other company is figuring out how generous of an offer they need to make for choice #1, they know that your next best alternative is choice #2 (for $0).
