The Challenge: Can You Trust What You’re Shipping? You Will with Insomnia v12
Learn about Insomnia v12 and the need for an AI trust layer
The first time you push an API to production, you’re excited it’s finally live. You’re relieved that you can move on to your next big project. You’re also nervous. You’ve tested as much as you thought you should, but somewhere in the back of your mind is a whisper of, “What if I missed something? What if the commits are messy? Should I have tested that again?”
Your dev teams are under constant pressure to deliver more, faster. New products. More integrations. Flawless user and customer experiences. And while your teams sprint to hit deadlines, you’re asking yourself the big questions:
- Are we shipping reliable, secure APIs?
- Do we have clear visibility across teams?
- Are we reducing friction for our devs?
- Are we future-proofing investment in dev tools?
Speed in development is everything, but speed without confidence is chaos. Downtime, data leaks, and integration failures go beyond technical issues. They are brand, revenue, and compliance risks. You don’t need a bigger stack of tools — you need smarter ones.
At API Summit 2025, you’ll see how Kong Insomnia enables organizations to move fast, break nothing, and trust what you ship — all powered by Insomnia v12. Make sure to register for API Summit to learn more, and keep reading for an overview of what we'll be disucssing.
AI Assist: Clean commits, transparent teams
Building trust starts with small things, like making sure every commit tells the right story. That’s where Insomnia’s v12 AI Commit capability comes in.
Developers want to write code. It’s what they’re good at and what they enjoy doing. But writing detailed, well-structured commit messages takes away time from actual development. Under tight deadlines, commit messages become rushed afterthoughts. The result? A messy git history that makes debugging and governance difficult. Let Insomnia handle the commits and give developers their time back to do what they do best.
At API Summit, we’re previewing AI-powered commit generation, an Insomnia capability that addresses just this:
- As developers work, Insomnia collects context: a diff of the current Git status and a history of previous commit messages.
- It suggests logical groupings of files to commit and proposes clear, descriptive commit messages for each one.
- Your teams can accept, edit, or ignore these suggestions (i.e., they’re guides not mandates).
The outcome? Commits become consistent and transparent without slowing teams down. Everyone can have a clear picture of changes while developers can focus on building.
There will be much to come on this in the upcoming v12 release, but make sure to register for API Summit for the first sneak peak at AI Commits in action.
MCP testing: One pane of glass for tools and resources
While AI-powered commit generations save developers time, Insomnia’s new MCP Client gives them the critical tools they need to validate their MCP servers.
Why should you care? One broken MCP interaction can cascade through an entire agentic workflow, creating failures that are difficult to reproduce and expensive to fix. Insomnia’s MCP Client gives you the tools to catch these problems before they hit production. When Kong Konnect instantly transforms your APIs into MCP servers, Insomnia completes the workflow by ensuring these servers are product-ready and thoroughly tested.
At the demo, you’ll see how devs can connect any MCP server, whether via HTTP or STDIO, and immediately explore and test tools and resources, all from the comfort of Insomnia. Trust begins with transparency. At API Summit, see a live demo of how Insomnia’s new MCP Client builds both into every workflow.
Giving developers back time to build with natural language Mock Servers
MCP Clients give you the confidence in AI agent interactions, but now your developers are stuck waiting for dependencies to be ready. We’re solving that problem, too, with Mock Server generation from natural language.
Instead of spending hours manually configuring mock servers, provide a simple description of what you need, a URL, JSON Blob, or OpenAPI Spec, and Insomnia will automatically generate a complete mock server. Building a new feature while the backend API is only half-complete? Describe the expected behavior and start developing immediately instead of waiting. Need to test against a metered public API like Stripe or Twilio without burning through your usage limits? Generate a mock that replicates the exact scenarios you need. The possibilities are endless.
Come to API Summit to watch us transform “I need a mock payment API” into a working server in just a few minutes. This isn’t justabout faster mock creation and removing dependency bottlenecks, but it's about giving your developers time back to do what they love — building.
From individual productivity to team transformation
At API Summit, you’ll find hands-on workshops that showcase how modern API development transcends individual developer productivity. With sessions diving into enterprise-grade collaboration, security models that scale with AI complexity, and governance approaches that maintain control without sacrificing innovation velocity.
These security and operations workshops will show you exactly how organizations can maintain compliance and control while enabling their teams at AI speed.
What’s next (and a few surprises)
Investing in a trustworthy API development isn’t just a cost; it’s a competitive advantage. Companies that can deploy AI agents with confidence in their API infrastructure will capture market share in the agentic economy. Those who can’t trust their APIs will fall behind.
At API Summit, we’ll be sharing exciting news about how we’re making these capabilities more accessible than ever before.
