Requestly

Design, build, and test APIs in one desktop client with local projects, Git sync, and team

Visit Requestly

Requestly is a desktop API client for macOS, Windows and Linux that stores collections locally as plain JSON files and syncs with Git, keeping API data under the user's control. It supports REST, GraphQL, SOAP, gRPC, WebSocket, Socket.IO and MQTT, and imports collections from Postman, Insomnia, Bruno, OpenAPI, HAR, cURL and WSDL.

Features include pre/post-request JavaScript scripting, assertions, a collection runner, a CLI runner for CI/CD pipelines, mock servers generated from collections, environment variables, authorization helpers, and code-snippet generation. AI capabilities cover test and assertion generation, AI-assisted debugging, and an in-app assistant. It is part of BrowserStack.

Requestly is aimed at developers and engineering teams, with local projects for individual use and team projects for shared workspaces. It is packaged as a free 30-day trial with no credit card required, followed by seat-based Team and Team Pro plans, with an Enterprise edition for organization-scale security and governance.
