Bruno review

Bruno ranks third because it solves a problem many teams have with cloud API tools: where the collections live. Bruno stores collections as files in your own Git repository, so requests and tests are reviewed and versioned like the rest of the code. The open source edition is free and includes the client for HTTP, REST, GraphQL and gRPC, testing, scripting, documentation, code generation and unlimited collection runs, with up to 2 workspaces. Pro at $6 per user a month billed annually adds unlimited workspaces, full Git operations such as push, branches and merge conflict resolution, data-driven runs and email and chat support with a 48 hour SLA. Ultimate at $11 adds secret manager integrations, report generation and more license admins, and Enterprise at $18 adds SSO, SCIM, audit logs and AI governance. Bruno has fewer hosted extras than Postman, such as monitors and cloud mocks, which is the trade-off for its local-first design.

Who it is for
