Data format toolkit
Validate JSON Against a Schema
Paste a JSON Schema and a data payload to check whether the data actually conforms — get back the exact path and reason for every violation (user.age: must be >= 0), not just pass/fail. The same engine is available as a CLI with a proper exit code, for gating a CI pipeline on schema conformance.

Convert from your scripts and pipelines.
Same conversions as the browser tool, available over a simple REST API. Ideal for backends, CLIs, and internal tools. Prefer zero network dependency? The recast-cli npm package runs the identical engine locally.

The API is in private beta. You'll get a personal key, 10,000 conversions per month, support for all conversion, diff, and schema modes, and webhooks.
