Bruno
Bruno — My pick for developers who want a fast, local-first, Git-friendly API client without turning API testing into another cloud platform, while retaining collection runs and a CLI for CI.
ChatGPT
Postman
Postman — My default recommendation for teams that need the broadest all-in-one API workspace, because Collections, scripted tests, scheduled runs, monitoring, performance testing, collaboration, and CI/CD execution via Postman CLI are unusually complete in one product.

Where the models split.
Across the 1 category Bruno and Postman both appear in, the models never break ranks: in each one, the same brand leads on ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, and Perplexity alike.
No model runs against the grain here: each of the four ranks Postman ahead at least as often as not, with Gemini the most lopsided.
