Pingo is a lightning-fast API scratchpad built for the macOS menu bar. It gives you a focused place to fire off small HTTP requests without opening a full API client.
Designed for quick checks while building, debugging, or exploring APIs, Pingo keeps the essential request flow close at hand: choose a method, paste a URL, add headers or a body when needed, send the request, and inspect the response directly from a compact scratchpad window.
Features
- Menu bar first: open Pingo from the macOS menu bar whenever you need it
- Common HTTP methods: send GET, POST, PUT, PATCH, and DELETE requests
- Quick URL input: paste an endpoint and run it immediately
- Header editor: add request headers in a simple Name: Value format
- Body editor: write plain request payloads for methods that need a body
- Stateless requests: does not automatically store or resend cookies, cached responses, or HTTP credentials
- Request control: cancel in-flight requests, with network timeouts to keep unresponsive endpoints from hanging
- Response viewer: inspect status, duration, content type, headers, and text response previews
Requires macOS 14 or later.
