# Reqable

Traffic-capture proxy with a built-in REST client, free on Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS and Android.

38 points out of 100. #11 of 11 API clients. Vendor: Reqable. Website: https://reqable.com/

- The Community plan is free for all platforms, with limits such as 1 online device and 100MB storage [1].
- Premium costs $49.90 a year ($4.16 a month) and raises the limit to 6 online devices and 1GB storage [1].
- Official apps cover Windows, macOS, Linux, Android and iOS [3].
- Without signing in, collections are stored offline on your device [8].
- Collections import from Postman, Swagger, Insomnia, Hoppscotch, cURL and HAR files [8].

Verdict: Reqable suits developers who debug app traffic as well as call REST APIs, and want apps on five systems with a free plan [1][3]. The catch: its docs show no GraphQL, gRPC, CLI, collection runner, mock server or API docs publishing, and the app is not open source [4][6][12]. Best for: Developers who want to capture app traffic and send REST requests in one tool.
