Kreya — Postman alternative. Build and test APIs faster!
2
•
The BEST alternative to Postman and Insomnia! Kreya is a GUI client for REST, gRPC and WebSocket APIs. All data is stored locally. Kreya is designed for collaboration via git and other tools. Designed to be easy to use while also supporting advanced use cases.

We've been working on Kreya for nearly 5 years now. In the beginning, it only supported gRPC, but we've added support for REST, WebSockets and tons of other features in the meantime! That doesn't mean it has become a bloated mess, we try to keep the UI lean and clean. With the recent controversy around Postman and Insomnia (they now require an account and store all data in their cloud), we want to highlight that Kreya can be used without an account and that all data is stored locally on your computer. Kreya even goes out of its way to store the data in a JSON format that is easy to share with tools such as git. We won't change this behaviour in the future. An account is only required to access the paid features. In our opinion, Kreya is one of the best API testing tools out there!

Looks like a great Postman alternative! Good decision not to require account, big advantage.
