Webhook retry proxy
Persistent logging and one-click retries for webhooks, so small teams stop losing events
- Problem
- Small teams wire critical flows to webhooks, but when the receiver times out or returns a 500, the event is gone and there is no reliable record of what arrived or whether it should be replayed. Developers end up writing throwaway scripts or digging through provider dashboards.
- Solution
- A low-config proxy layer that gives each webhook a dedicated URL, stores every inbound request with response status and latency, and supports automatic or one-click replay. A simple dashboard shows failures and lets users retry without changing receiver code.
- Users
- Indie developers and small teams using Stripe, Shopify, GitHub, Slack webhooks; technical leads building integrations.
- MVP
- Unique inbound URL with transparent forwarding; store headers, body, response code and latency; failed-event list with one-click replay; basic email or Slack alerts; per-project isolation.
- Revenue
- Tiered monthly subscription by event volume (free tier plus overage), or charge by retention window and retry count; team plan adds members and audit logs.
- Why now
- Webhooks are the default integration mechanism for SaaS, yet most small teams lack queueing and retry infrastructure. A single small server plus a database is enough for an indie developer to ship a proxy layer without competing with platforms.
