Why Bruno
Everything a platform does,
without the platform
Your collections are plain-text files in your repo. Everything else follows from that.
Developer First
An API client,
not a platform
Bruno is the open-source challenger to bloated, cloud-locked "platforms". A devtool should be extensible and work with the rest of your stack, not against it.
Open-source & endlessly extensible
OpenCollection YAML, human-readable and diff-friendly
Runs in your IDE, terminal, and agents
Collaborate
Collaborate via Git
Everything is folders and text files on your filesystem, co-located with the code they belong to.
Branch, diff, review, and merge your API collections with the exact workflow your team already trusts.
Secure & Local
Your data never leaves your machine
No cloud sync. No account. No login. We have zero visibility into your requests, and we're not training AI models on your data. Share only when you choose, through Git.
SOC 2 Type II
Independently audited
Enterprise Ready
Scale without the
security overhead
Bruno runs inside the security perimeter you already have. Whatever your enterprise has configured applies automatically. No cloud tenant. No new admin console. No new attack surface.
Inherited automatically
