HookForge — Webhook testing, debugging & replay tool

One-liner: Inspect, debug, replay, and mock webhooks during development.


🔍 Competitor Research (Feb 2026)

Competitor Pricing Notes
Webhook.site Free basic / $19/mo Pro Simple inspection tool. Very popular for quick tests.
Svix Enterprise webhook sending SaaS. $500+/mo Different angle — helps you SEND webhooks, not debug incoming ones. Open source core.
Hookdeck Free 100K events / Growth plan $ Event gateway — more infrastructure than debugging tool.
HookRelay Exists at hookrelay.dev Small player, webhook comparison content.
ngrok $8/mo+ Tunnel, not webhook-specific debugging.

Gap: Webhook.site is basic (no replay, no team sharing, no CI integration). Svix/Hookdeck are infrastructure, not dev tools. There's a real gap for a "Postman for webhooks" — inspect, replay, mock, share with team, integrate into CI.

Domain: hookforge.com TAKEN.

Verdict: (4/5) — Clear gap between basic Webhook.site and enterprise Svix. Natural extension of PingRelay. Good DX play.
