About Probe

Probe is a high-performance, native API client designed for developers who need a seamless way to interact with HTTP, GraphQL, and WebSocket APIs across multiple platforms. Its local-first approach means it runs natively on macOS, Windows, and Linux, eliminating the need for cloud-based workspaces, accounts, or Electron dependencies. Developers can leverage a single OpenCollection workspace to manage their API interactions across desktop environments, CLI, CI pipelines, and coding agents, promoting consistency and efficiency in API testing and development. What sets Probe apart is its focus on simplicity, speed, and cross-platform compatibility, making it an ideal tool for developers seeking a lightweight yet powerful API client without the overhead of traditional solutions.
