Apidog

API Development · Free · since 2022

Apidog is a all-in-one platform for API design, debugging, testing, documentation, and mocking. It handles api design, debugging, mock server, and automation, and it's best suited for api teams wanting an all-in-one api development platform. Launched in 2022, it's a relatively recent entrant that's been gaining traction.

The free plan is free for 3 users — enough for most people to evaluate whether it fits. It's designed for small teams, striking a balance between simplicity and collaboration features.

pros

Includes API Design as a core feature, purpose-built for api development workflows
Includes Debugging as a core feature, purpose-built for api development workflows
Free for 3 users — generous enough for most small teams to get real work done
Includes mock server alongside the core feature set — fewer separate tools needed

cons

Free plan exists but key features are locked behind the paid upgrade
Developer-oriented tooling may not suit non-technical team members
Ecosystem of third-party integrations is smaller than the market leaders in api development
Limited team/admin features if your organization eventually scales up
