The git-native API client
Tiger keeps your API collections as plain-text .tiger files in your
own Git repo, runs every request on your machine, and ships a built-in MCP server
so AI assistants can drive your API. No account, no cloud, no lock-in.

How Tiger compares to Postman, Bruno, Insomnia and Hoppscotch.
Why Tiger
- Git-native. Collections are human-readable text files. Diff them, branch them, review them in a PR.
- Local-first & private. No backend and no telemetry of your traffic - requests, tokens and responses stay on your machine.
- No account. Download and go. Free for personal and commercial use.
- Broad import support. Bring collections over from Postman, Insomnia, Bruno, OpenAPI, WSDL/SOAP or a curl command.
- Built for AI. The bundled MCP server exposes your saved requests as tools any MCP client can call.
- Cross-platform. Native desktop builds for macOS, Windows and Linux.
