Hookscope features
📥 Bins that accept anything
Named capture endpoints — every HTTP method, any content type, any subpath. Huge or malformed payloads get truncated and flagged, never rejected.
🔍 Full capture
Method, path, query params, headers, raw body, pretty-printed JSON with syntax highlighting, source IP, size, timestamp.
👁️ Live inspector
Request list updates every 2 seconds. Detail tabs for headers / raw body / pretty body / query, plus method filter and body search.
🔁 Replay
Send any captured request to any target URL — headers and body preserved, hop-by-hop headers stripped. Target's response shown inline, full replay history per request.
➡️ Auto-forwarding
Set a target URL per bin and every new capture forwards immediately, with the result recorded on the request row — inspect production webhooks without dropping them.
📋 Copy as curl
Reproduce any captured request from your terminal, with correct quoting.
🎭 Configurable responses
Per bin: status code, body, content type and an optional delay — perfect for testing your sender's retry logic.
🔒 100% local
One Node process, SQLite storage, ring-buffer retention so it never eats your disk. No telemetry, no external services.
$69 once — that's the whole pricing page
Pipedream charges $29/mo — roughly $348 a year, every year. Hookscope is a single payment, and it keeps working whether or not we ever sell another copy.
Or get Hookscope inside the full suite — every app in the catalog, currently $97 for the bundle. See the bundle →

Honest answers
Is it really free on GitHub?
Yes — the full source is MIT at github.com/bensblueprints/hookscope-mvp, always. The $69 gets you the 1-click Windows installer and updates instead of npm i && npm start.
Isn't Pipedream way more than a request bin?
It is — Pipedream is a full workflow-automation platform, and if you need webhooks to trigger multi-step integrations, it's genuinely great. But if you're paying $29/mo mostly to inspect and replay JSON, Hookscope does that part for $69 once.
Does forwarding retry on failure?
No — forwarding is fire-once by design, to keep behavior predictable. The result (status or error) is recorded on each request row, and you can replay any capture manually. If you need a durable retry queue, that's the cloud platforms' territory.
