OK JSON - Viewer & Formatter

OK JSON is a fast, native JSON viewer for the Mac. Copy some JSON and press ⌘ V — or drop in a file — and it’s on screen as a clean, browsable tree. No browser tab, no upload, no waiting.

VIEW ANYTHING

• Paste from the clipboard, drag and drop, open files, or fetch JSON straight from a URL — even from a copied curl command.

• Browse documents in the Navigator, trace your location in the Path Bar, and zoom into any node to focus on just that part.

• Preview values with a tap of the Space bar: images, colors, timestamps, links, multiline text, and JSON hiding inside strings.

• JSON Lines and NDJSON open like regular documents, and OK JSON offers to repair broken JSON instead of just rejecting it.

FIND & QUERY

• Press ⌘ F to search the whole document.

• Process data with jq, built right in.

• Query with JSONPath, built right in.

• Compare two documents and get the difference as a JSON Patch.

EDIT

• Edit values in place, format the document, undo freely, and save changes back to the original file.

AUTOMATE

• Write scripts in JavaScript to transform JSON your way, with built-in APIs for text, files, alerts, jq, and more.

• Control OK JSON from AppleScript, the Raycast extension, or URL schemes.

• Preview JSON files right in Finder with the bundled Quick Look extension.

HISTORY

• Everything you view is saved locally and automatically. Organize items into folders, or let old ones clean themselves up.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN

• OK JSON works fully offline. Your JSON never leaves your Mac.

• No accounts, no analytics, no tracking of any kind. The app is sandboxed, and the only network requests are the ones you explicitly ask for.

NATIVE & FAST

• Built with AppKit for the Mac — quick to launch, light on memory, at home in light and dark mode.

• Localized in 12 languages.

QUICK LOOK

• OK JSON comes with a quick look extension for JSON files. You can view formatted JSON string with beautiful syntax highlight simply by tapping Spacebar in Finder.

OK JSON requires macOS 15 or later.
