Run a structured checklist against OpenAPI Studio. Surface real bugs, real friction, real ideas — and we'll ship fixes against your reports. Earn a hand-picked Special Gift and a permanent Founding Tester badge.
The checklist watches what you do inside OpenAPI Studio and auto-marks items as you complete them. Only a few items need a quick note or a short video.
GitHub or Google. Confirm your Discord handle if you have one. No card, no payment, no commitment.
~30 seconds
25 items across 6 categories. Most mark off automatically as you actually use OpenAPI Studio. File a structured report when you spot a bug or UX snag.
~15 min for Tier 1, longer for deeper tiers
Contributor, Critic, or Edge Hunter. We send hand-picked Special Gifts in weekly batches and credit you publicly in the Hall of Fame.
Gifts ship weekly
Use the product — import a spec, add an endpoint, run an executor call — and the checklist marks off in the background. Only video / suggestion items need manual input.
Bug reports and friction notes go straight into our triage — only the OpenAPI Studio team sees them. We may quote anonymized findings in our "what we fixed" updates, never with your handle attached.
Local custom gifts, not codes or vouchers. Sent in weekly batches once you hit a tier. Posting on social is optional and earns a Hall-of-Fame shoutout — zero bearing on the gift.
Each tier unlocks a hand-picked Special Gift and a permanent Founding Tester badge in your profile. Critic is the realistic sweet spot for most testers.

Hand-picked rewards from brands real testers actually use — no digital codes, no generic gift cards we'd buy from a vending machine. The bucket is small today and grows as the program does. Edge Hunters and privileged testers get first pick of new additions.

From everyone on the OpenAPI Studio team
The full 25-item checklist opens in your tester portal after you sign in. Categories: Onboarding · Import · Editing · Flow · Sharing · MCP · Evidence.
Create your first workspace and a blank spec
Import a larger spec (>500KB) — note any lag
Add a $ref component schema and reference it from an endpoint
Create a public hotlink and open it in incognito
Connect an MCP client and make at least one request
Submit a 30–60s screen recording of one painful moment
A real, hand-picked thank-you gift for each tier — local to your region, not a digital code or voucher. We pick something useful and ship in weekly batches. Allow a few business days after you hit a tier.
When you do the actual thing in the product — import a spec, add a $ref, run an API call — the checklist marks itself off in the background. You only need to manually input two kinds of items: screen recordings and Suggestion reports.
No. Posting on social is optional and earns you a Hall-of-Fame shoutout, but it has zero bearing on whether you receive your gift. Recognition is the bonus, the gift is the base.
Only the OpenAPI Studio team. Reports are not public, and other testers cannot see yours. We may quote anonymized findings in our "what we fixed" updates — never with your handle attached unless you opt in.
No. Any plan tier — including the free plan — can enroll. The Founding Testers program is free to join and includes no card requirement.
Your enrollment runs for a fixed window from the day you join. After it closes, the checklist stops accepting new completions for you, but your badge and tier are permanent.
Yes, anytime. Stop using the product and your enrollment goes idle. Nothing else happens — no spam, no follow-ups.
Sign in, enroll, and import any spec — the first three items mark themselves while you're still figuring out the editor. No card, no commitment, drop out anytime.
