About
Stoplight is an API design and documentation platform for creating OpenAPI and JSON Schema definitions, generating interactive documentation, and running mock servers from the same workspace. It supports code-based editing, schema reuse, design validation, Git sync, and OpenAPI export.
The pricing page shows a free workspace with 1 user, 1 project, and access to the core API design, documentation, and mocking features. Paid plans add more users, private projects, multi-branch support, custom domains, analytics integration, and organization features such as SSO and activity logs.
- OpenAPI and JSON Schema visual designer
- Interactive API documentation
- Instant and automatic mock servers
- 1-user free workspace
- 1 project on the free plan
- Git sync and OpenAPI export
Free Tier Value
Stoplight’s pricing page shows a capped free tier with 1 project and first 3 users free, plus core features like the OpenAPI/JSON schema visual designer, interactive docs, and instant mock servers. Because the free tier is capped by users/projects and the cheapest paid plan is Basic at $44/month, the conservative recurring free-tier value is $0 for the free plan itself (no explicit dollar credit or quota-based monetization to price out beyond the included caps). A 14-day free trial is also mentioned on paid plans, but the requested FTV signal is for the free tier, not the trial.
