About WebhookDebugger

The Story Behind WebhookDebugger

WebhookDebugger was born out of frustration. I was building a SaaS application and needed to test Stripe webhooks. The existing solutions were either too basic (Webhook.site with only 24-hour history) or too expensive (Hookdeck at $49/month for features I didn't need).

As a solo developer, I couldn't justify spending $50+ per month on a webhook testing tool that I'd only use occasionally. But I also couldn't rely on free tools that lost my webhook history after 24 hours. I needed something in between - something that was both affordable and reliable.

I thought: "There has to be something in between." But there wasn't. So I built it myself.

WebhookDebugger is designed specifically for developers like me - solo developers, small teams, and startups who need reliable webhook testing without breaking the bank. It combines the simplicity of free tools with the reliability of enterprise solutions, all at a price that makes sense for indie developers.

This is my first micro-SaaS product, and I'm learning as I go. I ship fast, fix bugs when they appear, and genuinely value feedback from developers who use the tool. If you find issues or have ideas for improvement, I want to hear about them.

Why WebhookDebugger Exists

Webhook debugging shouldn't be complicated or expensive. Every developer deserves access to professional-grade webhook testing tools without the enterprise price tag. That's why I built WebhookDebugger - to bridge the gap between free tools that disappear your data and expensive enterprise solutions that most developers can't afford.

Affordable Pricing

Free tier that's actually useful, and paid plans at $9-29/month instead of $50+. Pricing for indie hackers, not enterprises. No hidden fees, no surprise charges.

Real-Time Updates

See webhooks arrive instantly without refreshing. Because waiting is annoying. No more manual page refreshes or wondering if your webhook endpoint is working.

Built by a Developer

I use this tool myself every day. If something's broken or could be better, I want to know about it. This isn't just a side project - it's a tool I depend on.

The Problem We Solve

Traditional webhook debugging is a nightmare. You either use basic tools that lose your data, or pay enterprise prices for features you don't need. WebhookDebugger solves this by offering:

Persistent webhook history (7-90 days depending on plan)
Real-time webhook capture without page refreshes
Clean, developer-friendly interface
Affordable pricing that makes sense for solo developers
No complex setup or configuration required
