Why Hookwing?

The only webhook platform built to work without a human in the loop. Reliable enough for production. Simple enough for a three-line setup.

01 / Agent-Ready

Your agents don't need a babysitter.
Neither does your webhook infrastructure.

Every other webhook platform was built for humans, then adapted for agents. Hookwing was designed for agents first. And it shows.

No 2FA or CAPTCHA by default. Agents authenticate with long-lived, scoped API keys. No browser. No human in the loop. They create endpoints, inspect events, upgrade plans, and decommission themselves, all over HTTP.

Developers get the same clean API. Everyone wins.

No 2FA or CAPTCHA by default — add them when your use case needs them. Agents authenticate with API keys. Long-lived, scoped, revocable. No browser. No human in the loop.

Agents can provision themselves. POST to /v1/endpoints. Get a webhook URL. No dashboard required. No human approval. Agents can spin up infrastructure and tear it down autonomously.

MCP server: native, not an afterthought. Install hookwing-mcp. Your IDE (Claude, Cline, Cursor) gets full webhook support. Create endpoints, inspect events, set routing rules in natural language.

HTTP-native billing. Agents can pay. Agents can upgrade plans via API. POST to /v1/billing/upgrade. No browser. No form. No credit card flow. Stored payment method, single call.

Structured everything, built for machine consumption. Pricing in JSON at /api/pricing. Errors with machine-readable codes and suggested fixes. Status at /api/status. Schemas everywhere. LLMs read structure. We give them structure.

02 / Reliable

Events land,
every time.

Webhooks are the connective tissue of modern software. When they drop, things break. We're obsessed with delivery guarantees: automatic retries, edge-based delivery, and full payload visibility from source to destination.

Automatic retries with exponential backoff. Failed delivery? We retry with intelligent spacing, not blind hammering. Your downstream systems get time to recover.

Edge delivery via Cloudflare Workers. Events route through the nearest edge location. No single point of failure. Global infrastructure, no datacenter dependency.

Full event history, forever queryable. Never lose a payload. Every event is stored, searchable, and replayable. Debug confidently.

Real-time delivery monitoring. See event status as it happens, not post-hoc logging that shows up an hour later.

bash - 3-line setup

# 1. Create your endpoint
curl -X POST https://api.hookwing.com/v1/endpoints \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $HW_KEY" \
  -d '{"name": "my-endpoint"}'

# 2. Send an event
curl -X POST https://api.hookwing.com/v1/ingest/ep_abc123 \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"event": "user.signup", "id": "u_42"}'

# 3. Read your events back
curl https://api.hookwing.com/v1/endpoints/ep_abc123/events \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $HW_KEY"

03 / Simple

Webhooks shouldn't need a PhD.

One API call to create an endpoint. Predictable responses. Clear, machine-parseable errors. We made it simple on purpose, because complexity is a product failure, not a feature.

Zero config to start. No YAML. No config files. No proprietary format. Standard HTTP, standard JSON.

Errors that explain themselves. Every error includes a status code, a machine-readable error code, a human message, and a suggested fix. No mystery.

Playground with zero signup. Get a live webhook URL in under 5 seconds. No credit card. No account. Just a URL.

OpenAPI 3.1 spec. No proprietary SDK required. Any HTTP client works. Full spec at /openapi.json.

04 / Transparent

No bait-and-switch. No asterisks. No 'contact sales'.

No bait-and-switch. No surprise invoices. No "contact sales" for basic information. Public status page. SLA coming soon. Pricing you can read in 30 seconds and JSON you can read in 10.

Public status page with live metrics. Not a hand-curated blog post after the fact. Real-time status, incident history, and structured JSON at /api/status.

Uptime SLA coming soon. We're building out our SLO tracking. Paid plans will include a published uptime commitment.

Pricing with no asterisks. Free tier is 25,000 events per month. No credit card required. No expiry. That's ~833 events per day, real enough for production projects.

Machine-readable pricing at /api/pricing. Agents and scripts can query our pricing programmatically. No scraping required.

05 / Secure

Your webhook data is sensitive. We treat it that way.

Security isn't a checkbox. It's the default. Every request is signed. Every transmission is encrypted. Every action is logged. And every key is scoped to the minimum access required.

Webhook signatures

HMAC-SHA256 on every payload. Verify your source.

TLS 1.3 everywhere

No plaintext. No exceptions. Zero-downtime cert rotation.

Immutable audit logs

Every action recorded. Tamper-proof trail for compliance.

Least-privilege keys

Scoped API keys: read, write, or admin. Revoke anytime.

Encrypted at rest

Event data encrypted in storage. Keys rotated regularly.

GDPR-conscious

Data residency controls. DPA available on Jet plan.
