HttpWatch integrates with Google Chrome and Microsoft Edge to provide unrivaled levels of HTTP monitoring, without the need for separately configured proxies or network sniffers. Simply interact with a web site and HttpWatch will display a log of requests and responses alongside the web page itself. It even shows interactions between the browser and its cache. Each HTTP transaction can be examined to see the values of headers, cookies, query strings and other HTTP related data. Commercial web sites often use technologies such as HTTP compression, SSL encryption and chunked encoding to provide the best levels of security and performance. HttpWatch works with these technologies to provided a detail view of HTTP activity within the browser. HttpWatch has two components; an extension used to collect, view and save HTTP traffic within the browser and a standalone log file viewer know as HttpWatch Studio.

HttpWatch Basic is a browser extension designed to monitor and analyze HTTP traffic directly within Google Chrome and Microsoft Edge. It simplifies web debugging by displaying detailed logs of requests, responses, and interactions between the browser and its cache without requiring additional proxies or network sniffers.
