I just downloaded @use_bruno on Thursday after losing my entire Insomnia API collection after my Mac crashed! Love it.

Bruno lets you toss multiple requests into a folder and then right click that folder and run them all in one go. I use it for seeding data for specific cases. You can also have multiple requests open at the same time via tabs, which is nice for working with multiple endpoints.

Thanks! This year, I convinced my org to migrate to @use_bruno from postman. This was the single most demanded feature from my team. They are happy now :)

Switched from Postman to @use_bruno and I'm not going back. Collections are plain text files in Git. No cloud accounts. No per-user licensing fees. Your entire team can use it. 🔥 Open-source API client that finally gets it right

Bruno feels perfect concept for me. define easier than Swagger. test easier than Postman. share definitions with git repo. that is all i needed.

Stability and crash fixes are often the most important updates for a daily driver. It is great to see the team prioritizing the core user experience over just adding new features.

Congrats! New UI, Inbuilt Terminal, Git and Workspaces are game changer. Keep up the good work 💪

Bruno is a lightweight and fully local alternative for Postman. Really nice!

I've started to use @use_bruno more and more. I really like that you can store the API schema as a folder within the project and it's really good as well I am not using it for querying the prod apis but for local dev is it really nice

You don't need @getpostman anymore. @use_bruno is free, offline, and stores collections as git files. I pointed Claude Code at our backend and it: → Scanned every route file → Created 121 .bru requests across 17 collections → Set up dev + sandbox environments

@use_bruno is absolutely incredible! i should have done this a long time ago

start fast, organize later is such a good product principle. most tools get the order wrong and force structure before you even know what you're building

Bruno joins our tool stack as our de facto API client. Its benefits, from the offline work, to its performance, outweigh the effort needed to learn its UI.

When postman went rogue and you couldn't really use it anymore I switched to Insomnia a long while back. But for over a year now I am using @use_bruno and I am super satisfied with the whole experience! Compared to postman they understand what is important to users.

My favorite API testing tool is @use_bruno. It has two key advantages over Postman: 1) No account is needed to save and share requests 2) Bruno requests are saved in separate files rather than a collection with thousands of lines of JSON

bruno keeps shipping surprises. an AI-native API client is a fun direction

For those asking Bruno vs. Postman Basically Bruno offers better UI and integrations compared to a traditional post man setup

@use_bruno, it's open sourced, can save everything locally as plaintext files, git friendly (.bru), super lightweight, runnable js script support, has great learning curve for beginners

Love using @use_bruno for privacy (separate .env files and environments), for versioning with git, and being integrated inside @code

@use_bruno is a wonderful no nonsense API testing tool for all (Windows, Mac and Linux) platforms. Its free and open-source with all needed features in it.

I switched to @use_bruno a while ago. Just simpler… feels like what postman was early on.

@use_bruno is solid—especially the straightforward Git integration. It makes collaboration and versioning noticeably easier compared to most free alternatives.

Loved using @use_bruno instead of Postman lately 🚀 Local-first collections, Git-friendly JSON files, no forced cloud sync, and faster startup. Feels lightweight, dev-focused, and perfect for teams that version APIs properly. Highly recommend trying it.

Bruno is such a solid Postman alternative! Love that it's open source and stores collections as plain files. Git-friendly API testing is the way to go for team collabs.

Ashutosh Khanduala

@ashuvssut

i finally found it! im ditching Postman im gonna use @use_bruno instead It has everything, pre-request, post-request scripts, tests, using external deps what i love the most: - collaboration via git. I use VSCode's VCS for it!! - writing reusable utility functions in js files🤌

been using @use_bruno a fair bit recently and really enjoying it. super easy to keep on top of changes as they are easy to read in a PR and the ui is clean. excellent work folks! 🚀

I love how Bruno🐶 openly compares itself to Postman🙂‍↔️ it shows confidence and 🗣️I also choose @use_bruno over postman it feels very fast 🍀 That’s what I love about tech if you have a better solution, you can put it out there and challenge what already exists.

Switched from @getpostman to @use_bruno. Clean UI & no noise. Got me thinking…what if an agent could understand intent and hit multiple endpoints without manually filling these fields here? New startup idea? xD
