Reviewer scorecard

Builder
80/100 · ship

Clean UI, open source, and supports every protocol. The git-based sync is useful for teams.

80/100 · ship

Type-safe database queries with auto-generated client. Prisma Migrate and Studio round out the developer experience.

Skeptic
80/100 · ship

Lighter than Postman and open source. For most API development needs, it's the right balance of features.

80/100 · ship

Some performance concerns at extreme scale, but for 99% of apps the DX and type safety are worth it.

Creator
45/100 · skip

Functional but the UI isn't remarkable. It gets the job done without inspiring joy.

Prisma Accelerate (edge caching) and Pulse (real-time) expand Prisma from ORM to data platform.
