The backstory
Postman remains the default place teams keep API collections, and its enterprise governance features are real. What changed is the daily use: developers increasingly ask an agent to call the API, inspect the response and write the integration, rather than clicking through a GUI. Wounded — the collaboration layer holds, the individual power-user seat is under pressure.
