CatchHook vs. Webhook.site
The most popular webhook testing tool, rebuilt for modern developer workflows.
Webhook.site is a well-established tool for capturing and inspecting HTTP requests. It's been around since 2017 and serves 400,000 monthly users. CatchHook builds on the same core idea but adds developer-focused features: one-click replay, automatic forwarding with retries, localhost tunneling, AI-powered debugging, and team collaboration.

Where CatchHook Stands Out
Replay & Forward in One Click
Re-send any captured webhook to localhost, staging, or production. Automatic forwarding with retries and circuit breaker protection means you never miss a delivery.
Built-in Localhost Tunneling
No separate tool needed. The CatchHook CLI streams real webhook traffic to your local machine over WebSocket -- works with temporary endpoints too, no account required.
AI-Powered Debugging
Get instant plain-English summaries of complex payloads and generate handler code in Ruby, Python, and Node.js. Like having a senior dev review every webhook.
Alerts That Actually Route
Detect missing webhooks, error spikes, and traffic anomalies. Route alerts to Slack, PagerDuty, Discord, Teams, email, or any webhook URL.
