About
n:point is a lightweight JSON storage service that exposes JSON bins over an API and a web editor. It lets developers create a JSON endpoint in seconds, edit data online, and attach JSON Schema to validate or lock the structure of stored data.
The service is aimed at prototyping, internal tooling, and simple data sharing. It supports flexible JavaScript object syntax, sub-property access through API URLs, protected editing for logged-in users, and CORS-enabled responses. The pricing page states that all current features are free with reasonable use, subject to rate limiting.

Free Tier Value
This free tier is genuinely usable for small projects because all current features are available, but it is capped by reasonable-use limits and rate limiting. With no paid plan or published monthly price to anchor against, a modest estimate of about $3/month fits a small but practical always-available service that is free forever yet not unlimited.
What's included in the free tier
- All current features are free for reasonable use.
- Free access is subject to reasonable use limits.
- API usage should not be hammered to avoid rate limiting.
See n:point pricing for current limits.
