    🚀 Caido releases, wiki and roadmap

  • Hi there! Co-founder of Caido (https://caido.io) here.

    Glad to see more competition in the space, we also went the route of using an API (built in Rust). We decided to focus only on a web UI in vue.js I will look how you are storing data and all, we went the sqlite way to save on RAM.

    Looks like we are both going after Burp, it's not going to be an easy ride for sure. What we found is it is very hard to make people in enterprise switch and the 100$/y pricing really isn't enough to build a serious business without enterprise clients at a higher price point.

    Anyway, best of luck!

  • ZAP

    The ZAP core project

  • Briefly reviewed your product. Seems like OWASP ZAP is your competition: https://www.zaproxy.org/

    It runs entirely in the browser so it uses the browser "native" frameworks.

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.

  • Proxyman

    Modern. Native. Delightful Web Debugging Proxy for macOS, iOS, and Android ⚡️

  • I previously used Proxyman [1] on iOS to the http requests send over TLS. It worked rather nicely. Proxyman in this case starts a VPN which handles all the traffic. It uses custom certificate to decrypt the messages.
