CookifyA Postman alternative for APIs with Swagger docs
If your API has a Swagger UI page, you may not need to import it anywhere. Cookify turns that page into a client, and it stays up to date on its own.
When Cookify fits
- You call and check an API that has Swagger UI
- You don't want to import a collection and keep it in sync
- You want to work on an API you don't own, straight from its docs
- You don't want an account or a desktop app
When Postman fits better
- You need collections, test scripts or mock servers
- You work in shared team workspaces
- Your API has no Swagger UI page
Cookify can export all your endpoints, or only your favorites, as a Postman collection, so you can use both.
