LoadForge: Scalable load testing for web apps & APIs

👋 Hey Product Hunt! We've just released a huge new update to LoadForge, marking our version 2: - Real browser testing - Lighthouse and performance monitoring - Anomaly detection - and much more I'm Dave, founder of LoadForge - a modern load testing platform built for real developers. We created LoadForge to make it insanely easy to run powerful load tests at an affordable cost. LoadForge can test 4,000,000 concurrent users for $595. 🔍 Whether you're: - Stress-testing your latest SaaS, - Validating infrastructure before a big launch, - Or just making sure your site won’t crash on Black Friday... ... LoadForge gives you the tools to test it like it’s real traffic. 💡 Some highlights: - Simple Python scripting allows easy HTTP/API tests - Real browser load testing with Playwright - CI/CD integrations + API access - Core Web Vitals + Lighthouse performance scoring - Beautiful dashboards + alerts We built this because most load testing tools are either too basic or too expensive - we wanted something powerful and developer-friendly with easy to understand reporting. Would love your feedback, questions, and ideas — and if you try LoadForge, let me know how it holds up against your site! 🚀 Thanks for checking us out!
