About Kreya

Kreya is a privacy-first desktop API client developed by Riok, a Swiss/German team, with native support for gRPC, REST, GraphQL, WebSocket and Server-Sent Events. All requests, environments and authorisations are stored locally as files designed to be versioned in Git rather than synced through a SaaS backend. Kreya offers automated tests with snapshots, scripting, environment switching, dynamic fake-data templating and CI-ready workflows. A free-forever plan covers basic usage; paid subscriptions run between roughly $5 and $10 per user per month for advanced collaboration and pro features.
