In their own words
Beeceptor
Beeceptor is a developer-focused API simulation platform for mocking services, virtualizing them, testing contracts, and simulating failures. It supports HTTP, HTTPS, HTTP/2, mTLS, REST/OpenAPI, SOAP, GraphQL, and gRPC. Users can build no-code mocks with request-matching rules and set response status codes, headers, and bodies. Uploading an OpenAPI specification can create a populated mock server with AI-generated data. Beeceptor can proxy requests to live backends, record traffic, and switch to mock behavior when a backend is unavailable. Latency, timeouts, and errors can be simulated to check client resilience. Its CLI exposes a localhost service through a public HTTPS URL and runs on Windows, macOS, and Linux. Management APIs support mock-server configuration, while MCP connectivity supports AI agents including Claude and Cursor. API Connections store OAuth credentials and generate tokens for outbound requests. Beeceptor says it is SOC 2 Type II audited, adheres to ISO 27001, and complies with GDPR; it also says data is encrypted in transit and at rest. The free plan has public endpoints, a 1 MB request payload limit, and cleanup rules for unclaimed endpoints.
Mockfly
Mockfly provides hosted mock REST API endpoints for teams building or testing before a backend is ready. An endpoint can return JSON, XML, or files such as PDFs and CSVs, and can select among several responses using rules tied to incoming requests. Mock data can use Faker.js templates or AI-generated JSON. Projects can start from OpenAPI, Swagger, Postman collection, or HAR imports; a Chrome extension can capture browser requests and add selected endpoints. Teams can share and edit mocks, inspect request logs, and review response-body history. For offline work, the mockfly-cli npm package pulls projects to serve locally. A public REST API and MCP server support programmatic mock creation and editing. Mockfly lists API, extension, Linux, self-hosted, and web platforms, and supports REST and WebSocket. The free Starter plan allows 500 requests per day, one project, four endpoints, and two responses per endpoint. Pro costs €15 a month; Team costs €49 a month; Company is listed from €199 a month.
