Mock APIs from your OpenAPI spec, with data that
actually connects.
Mocksmith reads your spec, infers how your entities relate, and generates one coherent dataset. The same customerId resolves across /orders, /customers, and /invoices — realistic values, no random UUIDs, no dead foreign keys.
Your spec is the contract. Mocksmith makes sure every mock honors it — built for contract-first teams.
Paste a spec, get a hosted mock URL. Live in under 5 minutes.
Other mock tools fake each endpoint. The data falls apart the moment it connects.
Generate a mock with Prism, Mockoon, or Postman and GET /orders/42 hands back a customerId that exists nowhere. Click through and you get a 404. The data is random per endpoint, so nothing lines up.
GET /orders/42
{
"id": 42,
"customerId": "9f3b1c7e-44a2-4f08-bd31",
"total": 129.00
}
GET /customers/9f3b1c7e-44a2-4f08-bd31
→ 404 Not FoundThe customerId points at a customer that doesn't exist. Your flow breaks the moment it follows the link.
GET /orders/42
{
"id": 42,
"customerId": 318,
"total": 129.00
}
GET /customers/318
{
"id": 318,
"name": "Alice Tan",
"email": "alice.tan@example.com"
}customerId: 318 resolves to the same realistic customer — everywhere it appears across your API.
Mocksmith infers the foreign keys from your spec and generates one coherent dataset — the same entity is identical everywhere.
How it works
Why Mocksmith, not another endpoint mocker
Every tool can stand up endpoints. Only Mocksmith makes the data between them coherent.
| Capability | Mockoon | Prism | Postman | WireMock | Mocksmith |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Generate a mock from an OpenAPI spec | |||||
| Realistic field values by meaning | |||||
| Cross-endpoint data coherence (foreign keys resolve) | |||||
| Auto-infers entity relationships from the spec | |||||
| Hosted, zero local setup | |||||
| No manual example authoring |
As of 2026, based on each tool's documented default behavior. “Partial” = possible, but manual or limited.

What's in the MVP
Turn any OpenAPI spec into live, hosted endpoints. No backend, no config.
Foreign keys resolve across endpoints. The same entity is identical everywhere it appears.
Emails look like emails, prices like prices — inferred from each field's role, not random noise.
Save and replay curated datasets and edge cases. Coming after the core release.
Get early access to coherent mock APIs.
Mocksmith is in early access. It's for developers tired of mock data that lies — random IDs, broken relationships, fixtures that drift.

Built by engineers tired of mock data that lies.
Random IDs, broken relationships, fixtures that drift from the spec — we've shipped around all of it.
Mocksmith is the tool we wanted: paste a spec, get mock data that behaves like a real backend.
