Reviewer scorecard
“API collections in git, no account required, and offline-first. This is how API clients should work.”
“Instant GraphQL API from a schema definition. Edge deployment and federation are well-designed.”
“One-time purchase vs subscription is refreshing. Git-native collections mean your API tests are version-controlled.”
“GraphQL is losing mindshare to tRPC and REST. Building a platform around GraphQL is a risky bet.”
“Offline-first, git-native tools represent a pushback against SaaS subscriptions. Bruno leads this movement in API tools.”
“Edge-first GraphQL with AI gateway is an interesting combination. The gateway approach could be the differentiator.”
