Parsee is a modern JSON viewer for macOS that helps you read, search, and understand JSON quickly — whether you’re inspecting an API response, troubleshooting a payload, or exploring a large dataset. It combines smooth navigation, expand by depth, smart filters with depth control, and instant computed node insights to make complex structures easy to follow. It’s built to stay responsive with large files (up to 200 MB), and it also includes optional power features like AI-assisted summaries and comparisons (bring your own key), plus Xcode/LLDB integration and a live debug window for viewing in-memory JSON in real time. Your files stay local by default.
Work with JSON your way
• Open files, paste JSON, or drag & drop
• macOS Services: select JSON anywhere → Open with Parsee
• Multiple windows, Recents, and custom names to recognize files fast
Find & filter — fast and precise
• Quick search and smart filters
• Control filter depth to focus on what matters
• Export filtered results as JSON
• Auto-expand, collapse, and focus tools, plus keyboard shortcuts
Node insights
Select any node to see computed insights such as occurrences, unique values, and other helpful summaries — so you can understand structures at a glance.
Built for big files
Parsee is engineered to stay smooth on real-world data, comfortably handling JSON files up to 200 MB without sacrificing features.
Optional advanced workflows
• Xcode/LLDB integration to open in-memory variables in Parsee
• Live Debug Window that updates from your Xcode scope in real time
Optional AI (Bring Your Own Key)
Ask questions about structure and values, compare JSONs, or generate summaries. AI features are opt-in and require your own API key — only the data you choose is sent.
