Hookdeck provides a hosted, reliable webhook and external-event infrastructure that lets developers receive, route, test, and deliver webhooks without managing the backend themselves. Its features include inbound event processing via Event Gateway (routing, filters, queueing, rate limiting, observability) and outbound delivery via Outpost (event destinations, tenant management, topics, test tooling, and localhost debugging). The platform scales to billions of events per week and offers tooling for testing, debugging, monitoring, and latency alerts (Radar) to support asynchronous APIs.
