SmartBear announced the availability of SmartBear API Hub featuring HaloAI, an advanced AI-driven capability being introduced across SmartBear's product portfolio, and SmartBear Insight Hub.

SmartBear has consolidated its most trusted developer tools into dynamic, modular hubs that streamline workflows and scale seamlessly as teams grow. With the flexibility to adopt only what they need, when they need it, teams can integrate their preferred workflows without sacrificing usability or quality.

“Development teams are overwhelmed by fragmented tools and vendor sprawl, slowing their ability to innovate and deliver software that meets today’s high standards,” said Dan Faulkner, CEO of SmartBear. “With API Hub and Insight Hub, we’re redefining what’s possible for software quality—removing complexity, amplifying insights, and enabling teams to scale confidently without compromise.”

API Hub, powered by Swagger, streamlines the API development process for modern teams seeking to deliver valuable and reliable APIs. API Hub includes an integrated set of robust tools that simplifies the API lifecycle with API Hub for Design (formerly SwaggerHub), API Hub for Portal (formerly SwaggerHub Portal), API Hub for Contract Testing (formerly PactFlow), and API Hub for Explore (formerly SwaggerHub Explore).

Insight Hub delivers observability features, giving development teams the visibility they need to monitor application performance and reliability at scale. By providing real-time insights into user behavior and application performance, development teams are empowered to identify issues early and optimize their workflows to meet high-performance standards. Insight Hub includes the robust error monitoring, performance monitoring, and distributed tracing capabilities of BugSnag.

SmartBear Test Hub, coming later, integrates advanced test automation and management designed to streamline testing and drive continuous quality improvements. By enabling end-to-end testing that includes UI functional, visual, and performance testing, Test Hub will equip QA teams with the tools they need to deploy resilient software quickly and effectively. Last month, SmartBear acquired AI-enabled digital quality platform provider, QMetry, accelerating Test Hub’s availability.

SmartBear’s hubs support growth at any stage, offering flexibility, usability, and targeted integrations. API Hub, recognized with the 2025 DEVIES Award for API Management & Support, exemplifies SmartBear’s commitment to innovation in software quality.
