Open-source API development and testing platform

Hoppscotch adds an enterprise cloud tier and an AI assistant, then turns to desktop trust.

◆Current state
Hoppscotch's September release introduced Enterprise Cloud, a tier with IAM, SSO, audit logs and dedicated support, and an AI Assistant for Enterprise Self-Host that can edit and run requests, manage collections and publish documentation. October was quieter: 2026.10.0 made the desktop app honor the operating system's trust store and hardened self-host default secrets, and 2026.10.1 fixes bundle origin permissions on Windows desktop and opens chat reply links in the browser.
◆Where it's heading
After August's unified workspace, the visible direction is commercial. New capability is arriving in enterprise editions, and two patch releases in September were enterprise-only or version syncs with no Community Edition change. The October work on corporate CAs and default secrets suits the same buyer, because both are problems that show up inside managed networks.
◆Prediction
Expect the AI Assistant to expand from Enterprise Self-Host toward Enterprise Cloud, since both now exist. Whether any of it reaches the Community Edition is not stated in these notes.

    REST and GraphQL collapse into one workspace; MCP server debuts

    ⚡ SPARK

    The unified REST-GraphQL workspace ends the split that has shaped Hoppscotch's collection model since the GraphQL client was added, and dataset-driven runs turn saved collections into parameterised suites. Against a year of patch-level consolidation, this is the release that changes what the workspace is.
