Reviewer scorecard
“API collections in git, no account required, and offline-first. This is how API clients should work.”
“One-time purchase vs subscription is refreshing. Git-native collections mean your API tests are version-controlled.”
“Offline-first, git-native tools represent a pushback against SaaS subscriptions. Bruno leads this movement in API tools.”
“Too expensive for what it offers. Plenty of open-source alternatives.”
“Fast, reliable, and the docs are actually good. Ship.”
