Keep Zapier or Make
Non-engineers own the workflow, or you truly glue a dozen SaaS products together every week.
Self-hosted webhooks
Route Stripe and form webhooks without a monthly pipe
Most “integrations” are a POST, a JSON rewrite, and a second POST. You do not need a monthly automation platform for that.
Stripe fires a webhook. A form tool fires a webhook. GitHub fires a webhook. The useful work is almost always: accept the payload, reshape a few fields, send it somewhere you already own. Zapier and Make are excellent when that “somewhere” is twenty SaaS apps. They are expensive when the destination is your database or a Discord channel.
What the router does
01
Receive
A lightweight endpoint you host. Point Stripe, forms, or any vendor at it.
02
Transform
Rules that reshape the payload before it moves. Keep the mapping next to the code.
03
Route
Fan out to a database, Discord, or your own APIs. One hop you control.
When a hosted pipe is the wrong default
Run Webhook Router
You already ship code, the events are sensitive, and you do not want customer payloads sitting in another tenant.
Pair it with self-hosted cron if some of those events also need a timer. The Webhook Router product page has the license.

Questions people ask before they switch
Is this a Zapier replacement?
For simple receive-transform-forward jobs, yes. If you need a thousand SaaS connectors and a visual builder for non-engineers, keep Zapier. Webhook Router is for developers who already know the payload.
Can it take Stripe webhooks?
Yes. Point Stripe at your instance, write the transform rules, and fan the event out to a database, Discord, or your own API.
Where does the data sit?
On the host you deploy. There is no vendor inbox holding customer events between hops.
Do I buy this with NexusCron?
They solve different jobs. Cron is the timer. Webhook Router is the inbound pipe. The Complete Dev Suite is both licenses together.
