webhooks.xyz vs Pipedream
A developer-first integration platform: HTTP triggers plus code steps and prebuilt actions.
What Pipedream does well
Code when you want it, prebuilt actions when you do not, and a generous free tier for developers.
Where webhooks.xyz differs
- Pipedream is a place to run code on events. webhooks.xyz is a place to receive events reliably. The common cases need no code, and your own keys plus the API cover the rest.
- Retries, replay and alerts are built around every bin here, not something each workflow handles.
Pick Pipedream when
You want serverless code steps triggered by events, with many prebuilt app actions.
Pick webhooks.xyz when
You receive webhooks from Stripe, GitHub, Shopify or any of 50+ providers and want to see, verify and deliver them reliably, for free, without building a workflow.

| Multi-step workflows (like Zapier) | ◐In progress, off until you turn it on: a request starts steps (send, set, if, switch, foreach, wait, http, forward). No catalogue of app actions; connections and HTTP cover them. | ● |
