Webhook Inspector with TypeScript export

Build a tool that captures webhook payloads, displays them in a clean UI, and generates TypeScript interfaces automatically. For developers integrating third-party APIs.

Why now

As APIs proliferate, developers need better tools to debug webhooks quickly and generate type-safe code.

Debugging webhooks is time-consuming without proper tooling to inspect payloads. Developers often resort to logging or manual inspection.

Build a web service that captures incoming webhooks, displays them in a structured format, and generates corresponding TypeScript interfaces with one click. Add features like replay and diff comparisons.

Monetize through a SaaS model with paid tiers for history retention and team features. Enterprise customers would pay for on-premise deployment.

Start with a simple web interface that captures payloads and shows raw JSON. Add TypeScript generation as the first premium feature.

The biggest risk is existing solutions like ngrok or Postman adding this as a feature.
