I built a free JSON storage API — no signup required

I kept needing a quick place to store JSON for prototypes without spinning up a database. So I built JSONBin.

How it works

POST any JSON to the API, get back an ID and URL. That's it.

curl -X POST https://jsonbin-zeta.vercel.app/api/bins \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"hello": "world"}'
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

Retrieve with GET, update with PUT, delete with DELETE.

Features

  • No signup required for basic use
  • API keys for private bins
  • Edge-deployed globally (sub-100ms response)
  • Free tier: 100 bins, 1K daily requests

Pricing

Plan Bins Daily Requests Price
Free 100 1,000 $0
Starter 1,000 10,000 $9.99/mo
Pro 10,000 100,000 $19.99/mo

Tech Stack

  • Next.js on Vercel
  • Neon (Postgres) for storage
  • Stripe for payments

Perfect for prototypes, config storage, webhook testing, or quick data sharing.

Try it: jsonbin-zeta.vercel.app

Would love any feedback!
