These tools all serve one goal: turning JSON from machine-readable into something you can read, edit and verify. Debugging an API mostly means formatting and minifying; config files often need comments and trailing commas repaired; integration work means converting between JSON, YAML, XML, CSV and Excel; and diagnosing a production issue usually comes down to diffing two responses or pulling one field out with JSONPath.
All parsing happens in your browser, so you can paste a real response containing tokens, phone numbers or order IDs without redacting it first for some online service.
