What does API testing cost your team?
Drag the slider to your team size and compare the typical yearly cost. The API Spector desktop app is free and local-first, so equipping developers with the client costs nothing; the cloud is an optional add-on.
Beyond a request client, what does your team need?
Tick what you need; each tool shows whether it covers it. API Spector bundles all of these in one product.
Figures are the typical paid team plan, in euros, as of 2026-10-24. Vendors that quote in USD are converted at about 1.09 USD/EUR; verify the exact figure on each pricing page. Many of these tools also have a free tier (shown with a "free tier" badge): the numbers compare paid collaboration plans, not the cheapest possible setup.
Prices change often; verify each on its own pricing page before relying on it:
Free or open-source clients not charted here include: Hoppscotch, Yaak, Milkman, SoapUI (OSS), Dredd, Microcks.
API Spector Cloud (optional) is Free to start, then Pro €120 per user/yr, or Team €190 per user/yr (adds SSO and unlimited).
"Save" is the yearly difference between a tool's paid team plan and API Spector Cloud for the same number of developers. The API Spector desktop client itself is free.
A "~" means the feature exists only on a higher or Enterprise tier. For example, SSO is typically Enterprise-only elsewhere; API Spector includes it in the Team plan.
