Mother Brain

Live

Gives AI coding tools like Cursor and VS Code persistent local memory of your codebase, running on your own machine - priced at $25/year, not one-time, apart from a limited beta deal.

Works offline

What's different: 100% local-first with no cloud required, unlike most AI memory tools.
Pricing: $25/year, no tiers; beta testers get lifetime access for a $25 one-time payment.
Best for: Developers using AI coding assistants who want persistent, local memory of their codebase across sessions and team members.

API Test Base

Live

A tool for building and running automated integration tests across many API types — HTTP, SOAP, databases, message queues and more — for QA and engineering teams, not a hosted API itself.

FreeWorks offline

What to know▼

How it works: A tool for building and running automated integration test cases across many API types — HTTP, SOAP, relational databases (Oracle, SQL Server, PostgreSQL, H2), JMS, FTP(S), SFTP, AMQP, MQTT, IBM MQ and IBM ACE. Includes HTTP stubs/mock servers, data-driven testing, endpoint management and Git-based team collaboration.
What's different: Covers many non-HTTP protocols and database types, not just REST/HTTP APIs.
Pricing: Free.
Best for: QA and engineering teams doing integration, microservices, ESB or SOA testing who need low-code test authoring.
Watch out: Data is saved offline on your local machine rather than in the cloud.
