Octrafic is an open-source AI-powered API testing tool that runs entirely from the terminal. Instead of writing brittle test scripts or dragging blocks around in a bloated GUI, users can describe what they want to test in plain English and let the AI generate and execute the workflow.
It is clearly built for serious development workflows rather than demo theatrics. With support for real API requests, schema validation, OpenAPI generation, CI usage, and PDF reporting, Octrafic feels more like a practical developer utility than another “AI for developers” toy someone launched after one too many energy drinks.
Is Octrafic Free?
Yes, Octrafic is free and open source. There are no usage limits on the tool itself, but you do need to bring your own LLM API key if you want to use cloud-based models. Which is honestly a better pricing model than being trapped in yet another “developer SaaS” subscription for the privilege of testing your own endpoints.
Pricing Plans

- Model Requirement: Requires your own LLM API key for cloud providers
