| Persistent history & exports | 14-day retention on free tier, export JSON or resend later | Short-lived logs, manual copy/paste, no replay or export |
| Replay & multi-destination forwarding | Replay captured events to any URL, branch to multiple services with transformations | Single destination bin with no forwarding or modification support |
| Visual debugger with diffing | Prettified JSON, header inspection, response diffing, tagging, and search | Raw payload viewer with no diffing, tags, or saved filters |
| Incident-ready monitoring | Failure alerts, automatic retries with exponential backoff, keyword notifications | No monitoring, alerting, or retry logic |
| Team collaboration | Shared inboxes, role-based access, masked secrets | Single-user bins with public URLs and no access control |

Migration checklist
Repoint your providers without downtime. Keep webhook.site as a safety net until you have validated replay and routing in Hooklistener.
Create a Hooklistener inbox
Generate a free HTTPS endpoint in seconds—no credit card required.
Point existing providers
Update Stripe, Slack, GitHub, or custom emitters to use the new URL. Keep webhook.site as a fallback during cutover.
Verify & replay historical payloads
Import saved JSON payloads or forward the webhook.site history into Hooklistener for baseline validation.
Enable forwarding & monitoring
Configure multi-destination routing, automated retries, keyword alerts, and on-call notifications.
FAQ
Is Hooklistener free for basic webhook testing?
Yes. The free plan includes persistent webhook history, replay, forwarding, and collaboration for individual developers. Upgrade only when you need longer retention or advanced automation.
How quickly can we migrate from webhook.site or RequestBin?
Most teams migrate in under 10 minutes. Create a Hooklistener inbox, update your provider URLs, and replay any saved payloads to validate the new flow.
Does Hooklistener support automated or CI-based webhook testing?
Absolutely. Use the CLI and API to script webhook simulations, integrate with CI pipelines, or trigger agent workflows that verify payloads automatically.
Can I forward webhooks to multiple environments?
Yes. Hooklistener natively forwards and transforms payloads, so you can fan out events to QA, staging, and production or to external tools like Slack and PagerDuty.
What makes Hooklistener more secure than webhook.site?
Hooklistener offers masked secrets, scoped access, audit trails, EU/US data residency, and signature verification helpers. webhook.site URLs are public by default and lack enterprise security controls.
Ready to level up from webhook.site?
Hooklistener keeps every webhook within reach and turns ad-hoc testing into a production-ready workflow. Join thousands of developers who ship confidently with replay, monitoring, and collaboration built in.
