What HookBytes is

HookBytes provides webhook infrastructure through managed cloud hosting or open-source self-hosting. It creates dynamic endpoints with HMAC authentication and routing rules, then delivers events asynchronously using exponential backoff and a dead letter queue for failures. Users can search, filter, inspect, and replay events from the dashboard or CLI. Stored payloads include event history and metadata such as headers and delivery status. The Open Source plan is a self-hosted Laravel gateway with full source access, an MIT license, unlimited webhooks, and community support. Cloud Starter costs $29 a month for up to 100K webhooks monthly, standard support, a 99.9% uptime SLA, email and Slack alerts, API rate limiting, and real-time monitoring. Enterprise has custom pricing, unlimited webhooks, a 99.99% SLA, multi-region deployments, dedicated support, on-premise options, and custom integrations.
