Slingshot is an API client that's the opposite of other API clients.
It's fast as ⚡ and light as a feather. It's privacy-respecting and local-first. Your data and your requests don't ever have to pass our servers (unless you want to). Oh, and did we mention it's entirely free and open-source software?

Break free from the bloat!
We hope you find Slingshot to be a breath of fresh air.
Start the appHow it works
Make API calls in the following 4 steps:
Test any API or backend service by making HTTP calls using any HTTP method, query parameters, headers and body payload (e.g. send raw body in JSON or XML or send text or binary data using form-data).
Slingshot shows you everything you need to know about the result of your HTTP calls - latency, resopnse code, headers and returned body, so that you can make a detailed analysis of the output.
cURL is the industry standard for making HTTP calls. Import cURL commands into Slingshot, or copy an existing request as a cURL command to paste into your terminal.
What good is a service that doesn't play well with others? Import API collections in OpenAPI/Swagger format, or import your existing Postman collections. You can also export your data in Postman collection format.
