What you get

What you actually get.

Build forwarding rules that fan a single incoming webhook out to your local dev box, staging, and Slack — based on event type, status, headers, or any custom condition. Toggle rules on and off without losing config. Pair with the CLI tunnel to forward straight to localhost without ngrok.

  • Forward to any http:// or https:// destination
  • Per-rule timeout and exponential backoff
  • CLI tunnel for direct-to-localhost forwarding
  • Toggle rules without losing configuration
Why it matters

Built for the moments where minutes turn into hours.

  1. Conditional routing

    Send only payment.succeeded events to staging, but every event to localhost during a debugging session.

  2. Retries with backoff

    Configurable timeout and exponential backoff per rule.

  3. No tunnel sprawl

    Built-in CLI tunnel replaces ngrok and friends.
