API security testing platform using dynamic analysis to automatically discover and test REST and GraphQL APIs. Paris-based; distinctive GraphQL scanner covers introspection abuse, nested query attacks, and auth bypass patterns at CI/CD speed.
Escape is an API security testing platform that uses dynamic analysis to automatically discover, map, and test REST and GraphQL APIs for security vulnerabilities, providing development and security teams with continuous API security coverage that keeps pace with the speed of modern API-driven development cycles. The platform's GraphQL security testing capability is a distinctive focus area — GraphQL APIs present a unique attack surface with introspection queries, batching attacks, deeply nested query abuse, and authorization bypass patterns that REST-focused scanners handle poorly, and Escape has built specific detection logic for the GraphQL threat model rather than adapting generic API testing to a protocol it was not designed for. The platform automatically generates test cases based on the API schema and observed behavior, covering authentication, authorization, input validation, and data exposure vulnerabilities across both REST and GraphQL endpoints.
Kong-acquired (2019) open-source API testing and development platform with 1M+ users; Insomnia 10 added AI Runner, competing with Postman for the API client developer tooling market.
Insomnia is an open-source API development and testing platform that provides developers with a powerful client for designing, debugging, and testing REST, GraphQL, SOAP, and WebSocket APIs — offering an intuitive interface for crafting API requests, inspecting responses, organizing API collections, and writing automated tests without the complexity of commercial alternatives. Founded in 2014 by Gregory Schier in Victoria, Canada, Insomnia was acquired by Kong (the leading API management company) in October 2019 and has grown to over 1 million users as of September 2024.
