In their own words
Apidog
Apidog is an API platform for designing, debugging, mocking, testing, and documenting APIs, with GraphQL and SOAP support. Its specification-led workflow can generate request parameters, body content, and mock data, then check responses against specifications. For automated testing, users can arrange request sequences, add assertions, extract variables, and save requests as endpoint cases. It imports Postman data and supports Postman scripts. Database operations include MySQL, SQL Server, PostgreSQL, and Oracle on Free; ClickHouse, MongoDB, and Redis are listed for paid tiers. The CLI can connect to Jenkins, GitHub, and GitLab, and activity notifications can go to Slack or webhook-compatible tools. Deployment choices include Global and Europe SaaS services and an on-premises option hosted on customer servers. Apidog says desktop requests travel directly from the user's computer to the target server, not through Apidog servers. The free plan is time-unlimited for four users; paid plans start at $9/user/mo (annual), with a 14-day trial.
Firecamp
Firecamp is an open-source, multi-protocol API platform with playgrounds for REST, GraphQL, WebSocket, and SocketIO APIs. It supports API collections and collaboration in shared workspaces, while guests can test requests before creating an account. Accounts add saved requests, collections, and team collaboration. REST tooling includes authentication, scripts, code snippets, interactive variables, headers, cookies, timelines, statistics, body mockers, and protocol support through HTTP 1.0, 2.0, and 3.0. GraphQL tools include an explorer, query collections, generated variables, multipart uploads, documentation browsing, history, and introspection. WebSocket and SocketIO playgrounds provide message or emitter collections and connection settings. Firecamp lists an API test runner plus CLI and CI/CD support for collection tests. The Free plan costs $0 per month for up to five seats. Team supports up to 15 seats at $49 per month billed yearly or $59 monthly. Enterprise pricing is custom.
