ApiForge — The API lightweight client .
ApiForge — The open-source API client with built-in AI.
ApiForge is a free, open-source API client built for developers who want speed without bloat. It comes with a built-in AI assistant powered by Claude that helps you: Debug API requests Generate code in 9 programming languages Manage variables — all locally Import your Postman collections, organize requests with environments, and ship faster. No account required. No cloud sync. No telemetry. Your data stays on your machine.
Hey everyone! 👋
I built ApiForge because I was tired of Postman getting heavier with every update — cloud sync I didn't ask
for, login walls, and features buried behind paid tiers. All I wanted was a fast, local tool to test APIs.
So I built one from scratch. Electron + React, everything stored locally in IndexedDB. No accounts, no
telemetry, no cloud. Just open it and start working.
The AI assistant came naturally — I was already using Claude while debugging APIs, so I wired it directly into
the app. Now it sees your request, response, and variables in context. It can suggest fixes, generate code,
or help you build requests from scratch. It's not a gimmick — it genuinely saves time.
A few things I'm proud of:
- 9-language code gen — get working snippets in Python, Go, JS, PHP, Ruby, C#, Java, and cURL instantly
- Paste a cURL, get a full request — just paste into the URL bar
- Collection + environment variables — with {{autocomplete}} everywhere
- Pre/post scripts — for auth flows, chaining requests, assertions
- Import your Postman collections — zero friction to switch
The whole thing is open source. I'd love feedback on what to build next — WebSocket support, team sync, and a
Windows build are all on my radar.
Thanks for checking it out! Happy to answer any questions 🙏
