Convoy

Convoy is a high-performance, cloud-native webhooks gateway designed to securely ingest, persist, debug, and deliver webhook events at scale. It sits at the edge of your network to send outgoing webhooks to customers and to receive incoming webhooks from providers without exposing internal services.

Key Features

• Ingests and queues webhook events for reliable delivery at high volume
• Supports both outgoing webhooks (to customers) and incoming webhooks (from third parties) with routing
• Horizontal scalability with independently scalable components (API server, workers, scheduler, socket server)
• Delivery controls including retries (constant time and exponential backoff with jitter) and batch retries
• Endpoint management features such as per-endpoint rate limiting and fan-out to multiple endpoints
• Security features including payload signing, bearer token authentication, rolling secrets, and static IP support
• Customer-facing, embeddable webhook dashboards for endpoint management and event debugging
• Endpoint failure handling with automatic disabling and notifications (email and Slack)

Use Cases

• Provide a robust webhook infrastructure for a SaaS product, including delivery retries and observability
• Centralize and secure webhook ingress/egress for microservices without exposing internal systems publicly
• Offer customers an embedded portal to manage webhook endpoints, subscriptions, and retries

Convoy helps teams avoid building and maintaining complex webhook delivery systems in-house by providing a dedicated gateway focused on reliability, security, and developer workflow. It is well-suited for product and platform teams that need consistent webhook delivery at scale with strong operational controls.
