Proxyman

What it is for

Proxyman is an HTTP/HTTPS debugging-proxy desk: you capture GET https://httpbin.proxyman.app/delay/2 from curl, read the 200 JSON, and you can start Free (limited rules). Use it when the job is a live request you start at a public $, not when you need Postman’s Solo $9 catalog only.

Soft-note: Free to start (Starter / Trial; 1 debugging-tool rule) + Standard $89 / 1 seat + Personal $99 for 2 seats (list $178) + Team perpetual from $99/seat (optional renewal $79/seat; ≥5 seats) or Team Subscription $12/seat/mo billed yearly. Distinct from Insomnia, Postman, and Yaak.

What makes it unique: the cover is Proxyman’s official dashboard (Listening on 10.75.100.213:9090, Apps / curl / Chrome, selected 5 https://httpbin.proxyman.app/delay/2 GET 200, Request GET /delay/2 + Response JSON url) from proxyman_dashboard_v6_dark.webp — not a wordmark. The /delay/2 row itself is ops of the log.

Key features

• Request log — URL / Client / Method / Status / Duration (cover still; product). One desk. Cover /delay/2 sits here.
• App sidebar — Favorites / Apps / Proxyman / Chrome / WhatsApp (cover). A tree, not a Standard tile.
• Method + status — GET 200 / CONNECT 200 / Active (cover). A status, not a $89 meter.
• Request inspector — Header / Query / Body / Raw / JSON (cover). A request, not Get started.
• Response JSON — args / headers / url on the cover (cover). A response, not Enterprise.
• Capture HTTP/HTTPS — Mac / iOS / Android + browsers (pricing; getting started). A capture, not SSO.

Download / Buy license are CTAs (not desks). Standard / Personal / Team $ stay in Pricing. MCP / “AI tools via Model Context Protocol” stay out of Key features as an AI extra. Breakpoint / Map Local / Scripting are paid desks (not Free defaults) — see Limitations.

Who it's for

Best fit: developers who will stay on Free while they capture a first /delay/2 row — then Standard at $89 (1 seat) when they need unlimited rules / Breakpoint / Map Local, or Personal at $99 for 2 seats + mobile, not Postman Solo $9 first unless they want a hosted collection catalog, and not if they refuse to install/trust a Proxyman CA.

Pricing

Verified 2026-10-23 (Asia/Shanghai) from proxyman.io/pricing (also proxyman.com). Soft-note: USD; VAT may apply. Perpetual licenses include 1 year of updates; after that you keep the last PRO build.

• Free / Starter (Trial) — $0 to start. No credit card. Comparison table: capture HTTP/HTTPS + JSON preview; 1 debugging-tool rule. Breakpoint / Map Local / Map Remote / Scripting / Multiple Filters are No on Starter.
• Standard — $89 perpetual / 1 seat (1 device; macOS / Windows / Linux). Unlock premium tools. 1 year of updates.
• Personal — $99 perpetual for 2 seats (list $178). Includes 2 mobile seats (iOS / Android apps).
• Team (one-time) — $99/seat (≥5 seats). Optional renewal $79/seat for another year of updates. License Manager / invoice / wire.
• Team Subscription — $12/seat/mo billed yearly. Cloud extras (Sharing Logs / Team Workspaces / 10GB). SSO listed as coming soon on the page we fetched.
• Education — 50% off via support@proxyman.com (printed). Do not invent the student $.

Limitations / costs

• SSL proxying needs installing/trusting the Proxyman CA (and the Helper Tool). HTTPS plaintext is not free of that trust step.
• Breakpoint / Map Local / Map Remote / Scripting sit behind paid SKUs. Starter is capped at 1 rule.
• A debugging proxy, not Postman’s collection catalog. For that platform see Postman.
• The product is not OSS. We omit a GitHub CTA rather than treat community mirrors as the app.

Alternatives

• Insomnia — a Kong API client when you want Essentials $0 / Pro $12, not a live /delay/2 proxy log.
• Postman — a hosted API platform when you want Free $0 / Solo $9, not SSL-intercept debugging.
• Yaak — a local-first API client when you want Free personal / Individual $79/yr, not a MITM proxy.
