API Detective is a Chrome add-on that allows users to discover and analyze hidden API requests made by any website. It provides a seamless experience for developers, QA engineers, and API integrators by revealing network requests such as REST endpoints, GraphQL queries, and WebSocket connections without the need for complex setups. The tool integrates directly with Chrome's DevTools Protocol, ensuring that all requests are captured and displayed in an easily navigable interface.

Users can interact with a website while monitoring API calls in real time, inspecting request and response details including headers and bodies. The add-on supports various filtering options and allows for exporting data in multiple formats, including cURL commands and Postman collections. With both free and Pro versions available, API Detective caters to a wide range of needs, from casual exploration to professional API documentation and debugging.
