HookWatch provides automated monitoring for webhooks and cron jobs, giving developers visibility into the invisible parts of their infrastructure. The platform helps stop firefighting silent failures and enables shipping with confidence by tracking every webhook hitting endpoints and monitoring cron job execution.
Key features include real-time webhook feed with full payload inspection, failure detection and alerts, one-click replay functionality, and support for services like Stripe, GitHub, and Shopify. For cron monitoring, it offers human-readable schedules, execution logs and history, automatic retries with exponential backoff, local-first CLI, and cloud sync with dashboard integration.
The platform operates with a local-first, cloud-optional approach that works 100% offline. It provides smart alerts through Slack, Discord, PagerDuty, and email notifications with actionable context. The unified dashboard displays webhooks and cron jobs in one place with real-time metrics showing what's healthy, what's failing, and where to look.
Benefits include debugging issues in seconds instead of hours, never missing payments or notifications, and preventing silent cron job failures. Use cases include monitoring Stripe payments, GitHub deployments, Shopify orders, Slack notifications, and Twilio SMS integrations.
The product targets indie hackers and small teams, specifically developers who need reliable monitoring without enterprise complexity. It offers a developer-first CLI for managing webhooks and cron jobs from the terminal with simple configuration and powerful commands.
