- Stoplight Platform is a collaborative, design-first API platform: teams author and validate OpenAPI and JSON Schema specifications in a visual editor, generate interactive documentation and hosted mock servers, and manage a governed API portfolio in a central repository synced to Git.
More detail
- It sits upstream of runtime services, helping teams standardise design and documentation before development begins.
- Best for
- API designers, platform teams and program leads who want a shared, Git-synced source of truth for OpenAPI and JSON Schema design, docs, mocks and style guides.
More detail
- Scales from a solo designer on Basic up to enterprise programs needing SSO, shared style guides and unlimited teams.
- Pricing
- Subscription per workspace with users included and per-seat add-ons, billed monthly or annually.

About
- Stoplight Platform is a collaborative, design-first API platform: teams author and validate OpenAPI and JSON Schema specifications in a visual editor, generate interactive documentation and hosted mock servers, and manage a governed API portfolio in a central repository synced to Git.
- It sits upstream of runtime services, helping teams standardise design and documentation before development begins.
What it helps with
- API development starts before requirements are clear, causing rework and frontend/backend blocking
- API styles drift across teams without shared style guides or validation
- Documentation goes stale and is hard for consumers to use
- API sprawl makes existing specs hard to find, reuse or track changes
- Schema components get duplicated manually instead of reused
