toran vs Webhook.site
Webhook.site is a lightweight request capture endpoint. Developers commonly use it to inspect a single inbound webhook or callback during development.
What Webhook.site is good at
- ✓Capturing a single inbound HTTP request to a temporary URL
- ✓Debugging webhook payloads from third-party services
- ✓Quick, no-setup inspection during early development
Where it falls short
- △Does not observe real outbound API requests from your application or agent
- △Cannot be placed inline between your app and a third-party API
- △Limited visibility into timing, retries, or production behavior
How toran is different
- →toran sits inline as a forward proxy by swapping a base URL
- →Shows live outbound API requests exactly as it happens
- →Works for servers, CI, containers, and AI agents - not just webhooks
- →Read-only by design: no retries, caching, or mutation
💡
Quick decision rule
Use Webhook.site if you need to inspect a single inbound webhook or callback. Use toran if you need visibility into real outbound API calls made by your application or agent.
