HookWatch vs Spectate

Each endpoint gets a HookWatch URL that receives and forwards webhooks, recording status, provider, response code, latency, and attempt count for every delivery.

Re-send an exact captured payload after a fix, with manual replay and retry policies instead of recreating the event by hand.

Failed deliveries are categorized by reason — signature mismatch, timeout, 5xx, rate limit — so you know what broke without grepping logs.

Recurring failures group into a single incident routed to Slack or a webhook, so a flaky endpoint shows up as one problem.

Web and HTTPS endpoint checks with status code, keyword, response time and certificate validation, plus ping, TCP port, DNS record and mail server monitors — checked every 30 seconds from four regions.

Branching escalation paths decide who is notified, where and when, so severe alerts page someone immediately while warnings can wait for working hours.

Page the on-call engineer by SMS or phone call with one-key acknowledgement, and run the whole incident from Slack with /incident declare.

Publish branded status pages that follow every incident update, available in six languages and matched to the visitor.
