Reviewer scorecard
“The most mature AI API with the largest ecosystem. Function calling, JSON mode, and assistants API cover every use case.”
“Still the best API development environment. Postbot generating tests from your API schema saves hours. Collections shared across teams are essential.”
“Reliability has improved significantly. The ecosystem and tooling around OpenAI's API remain unmatched.”
“It has gotten bloated over the years but the core functionality is unmatched. The AI features are genuinely useful, not just checkbox items.”
“OpenAI set the standard for AI APIs. The Assistants API and real-time API point toward increasingly capable agent platforms.”
“In an era of AI agents that can call APIs directly, do we still need a GUI for API testing? The future might be AI testing APIs autonomously.”
