Spitfire

Free 30-day pilot: on your own systems, with your first test ready

The first 5 teams get a free 30-day Scale license, a starter test written for their case and e-mail support. Find out at which load and in which service your system struggles before your busy season; Kafka, MQTT, SQL, gRPC and HTTP in one test, without scripts.

What you get

  • A 30-day Scale license. No card, no automatic renewal; the key comes by e-mail.
  • A starter test. Tell us what you want to test (endpoints, Kafka topics, queries, the expected load) and we send you a test file (.json) written for it. Open it with Tests → Open file, add your connection details and run it.
  • E-mail support during the pilot, in English or Turkish; we reply within two business days.

The first week

  1. Install. One command on Docker, or Helm on Kubernetes (installation guide); paste the license key on the License page.
  2. The first test. From the test file we send, or recorded, or imported from OpenAPI or an existing JMeter/k6 file.
  3. A breaking-point run: a plain capacity answer such as "held at 200 req/s, not at 230" and an estimate of the instances you would need.
  4. The backend view. If you have OpenTelemetry, Prometheus or Tempo, which service slowed down; if not, we explain by e-mail how to connect it.

Wherever you get stuck, write to us with a screenshot or a support bundle (secret values are masked).

In return

Short written feedback at the end of the pilot, a few questions by e-mail: what helped and what was missing. If you agree, we write a short case study from your results; named or anonymous ("a payment company"), and nothing is published until you approve the text.

After the pilot

If you want to continue, you get 15 % off a yearly Growth or Scale license within 14 days after the pilot. Your installation, tests and results stay as they are; you only enter the new key. Your data is already in your network.

Apply

Fill in the form; we will reply by e-mail with your license key within two business days. The more clearly you describe what to test, the more ready the starter test will be.

The system (web, API, Kafka, databases…), the expected load, where it would run (Docker, Kubernetes).

Your details are used only to answer this request; see the privacy notice.

Frequently asked

Is the pilot really free? Do you need a card?
Yes, it is free. We ask for no card or payment details and nothing renews by itself. We send the license key by e-mail.
What happens when the pilot ends?
If you want to continue, you get 15 % off a yearly Growth or Scale license within 14 days after the pilot. If not, there is nothing to do: your installation and data stay where they are, and after a 14-day grace period the free edition's limits apply.
Does any of our data come to you?
No. Spitfire runs on your server; test definitions, connection details and results never leave your network. Support goes by e-mail; we never ask for screen sharing or remote access. We write the starter test from what you describe, without passwords or tokens. Details are in the security statement.
Is the case study required?
No. At the end we only ask for short written feedback, a few questions by e-mail. A case study is optional, named or anonymous, and nothing is published until you approve the text.
Who can apply?
Company teams that will load test on their own infrastructure, in Türkiye or abroad. There are 5 places; we will say so on this page when they are taken.
