Svix is an open source webhooks-as-a-service platform that handles delivery, retries, signing, and a customer-facing developer portal for managing webhook endpoints in your application. MIT licensed.
Use Svix when webhook reliability, retries, signing, and customer debugging are part of your public API promise.
Your webhook volume is tiny and failures can be handled manually by support.
Use Svix to move delivery attempts, event history, and endpoint controls out of ad hoc application code.
Your event system must stay inside an existing internal platform with no new service dependencies.
Webhook delivery looks simple until customers start depending on it. Failed endpoints, retries, signatures, event logs, rate limits, and replay tools quickly turn a background job into customer-facing infrastructure.
Teams that build webhook delivery themselves often spread the logic across queues, workers, dashboards, and support scripts. That creates hard-to-debug delivery failures and a poor developer experience for customers integrating with the API.
Svix handles delivery attempts, retries, and endpoint management so product teams do not have to maintain this logic inside their own background job system.
Signed payloads help receivers verify that events came from the right sender and were not modified in transit, which is a baseline requirement for production webhook APIs.
Svix includes a developer portal pattern for endpoint management, giving API customers a clearer way to configure and debug their integrations.
Svix solves outbound webhook delivery: retries, signing, endpoint management, logs, and customer-facing debugging.
Yes. Svix has an open source repository and can be evaluated for self-hosting when teams need more control than a hosted webhook provider.
Use Svix when webhook delivery is a customer-facing product feature. A queue is enough for internal jobs, but it does not provide the receiver experience and delivery controls webhook customers expect.
