VERDICT

Should I use Mockfly?

Create hosted mock REST APIs in seconds: import OpenAPI or Postman, add conditional responses and Faker.js data, share them with your team. Free plan, no credit card. - mockfly.dev

Worth it. Buy if you're a frontend dev, startup, or small team that needs hosted API mocks fast — the free tier is genuinely usable. Skip if you're an enterprise needing vendor security docs, SLAs, or a proven track record.

Confidence

Medium. Based on 13 public sources; G2 review base is very small (6 reviews), so user sentiment is directionally useful but thin.

Gotchas - check before you buy

high

No public security page — enterprise procurement and security review will likely stall

medium

Free tier stops at 500 requests/day and 1 project — over the limit means €15/mo Pro

medium

5.0 G2 rating comes from just 6 reviews — tiny sample

medium

Vendor is a founder-run side project; support and long-term commitment are unproven

Great free hosted API mocker for small dev teams; too indie and security-light for enterprise procurement.
