Beautify raw API responses, validate structure, and inspect parsed keys quickly.
Quick answer: API Response Formatter
Pretty-print JSON so nested errors and fields are readable in seconds.
Example: A 1-line error becomes indented: `error.code`, `error.details[0].field` - you spot the bad phone format without squinting.
Calculations follow the documented formula on this page; rounding and input units can change the last digit-treat outputs as educational estimates unless you reconcile with source systems.
* This is an estimate. Actual amounts may vary slightly based on input assumptions.
Logs and curl dumps arrive minified. Formatting reveals structure - handy before you diff two payloads or paste into a ticket without blinding your teammates.
