HookDeploy Lite – Local-first webhook debugging and forwarding

Capture, inspect, and forward webhooks locally without relying on third-party cloud services

Problem

Debugging webhooks requires a public endpoint to receive and inspect requests, but existing tools either depend on third-party clouds (privacy risk) or are too complex, lacking a smooth local-to-prod workflow.

Solution

A locally runnable webhook relay that provides a temporary public URL to capture requests, view/edit/replay them, and forward to local or private infra (optional mTLS) — no external SaaS required.

Users

Indie developers and small teams integrating third-party webhooks, and privacy-conscious engineering teams.

MVP

Generate temporary public URL; capture and display headers and payload; manual replay; forward to local port; simple request filtering and modification rules.

Revenue

Open-core; hosted version subscription by webhook count or request volume (from $9/mo); enterprise with mTLS and private deployment.

Why now

API economy and automation workflows make webhook debugging a common pain, but existing options are costly or complex; local-first and privacy awareness are rising.
