// api reliability layer

One reliability layer.
Dozens of use cases.

Relay every request safely. Retain every payload before it reaches your backend. Recover from failures without losing a single request — without managing the underlying stack.

// scenarios

Pick your scenario.

Every scenario below is a real situation teams face when building on APIs. getrequest covers all of them.

Free

Launch APIs without a backend

Your backend isn't ready. Launch a getrequest endpoint that returns real JSON and unblock your frontend team immediately — no server to provision, no config to manage.

action: mock_json
Free

Capture and inspect webhooks

A third-party service is firing webhooks and your handler is broken. Point the webhook URL at getrequest — every payload is captured and inspectable before you write a single handler.

POST /webhooks/stripe → captured
Free

Observe upstream API traffic

Replace your upstream URL with a getrequest forwarding endpoint. Every request your system sends and every response it receives is now fully visible — without touching your code.

destination: api.stripe.com
Pro

Recover from production failures

A request failed in production. Find it in the log, replay it against your fixed build, confirm the issue is resolved — before it ships. Failure recovery with one click.

Pro

Share incident evidence across teams

Generate a permanent link to any captured request and paste it in the incident ticket. Your whole team sees the exact failure — headers, body, response — without needing access to your environment.

Free

Validate integration contracts

Verify that a third party is sending the right fields in the right format before your handler goes live. Capture inbound requests and inspect the schema against your expectations.

POST /webhooks/partner → inspect
Free

Protect against traffic spikes

A sudden surge hits your API. getrequest absorbs inbound load as a controlled relay layer — so your backend isn't exposed directly to unpredictable traffic. Every request is relayed safely and retained in full.

route: inbound spike → relay layer
Pro

Recover lost requests after downtime

Your backend went down. Requests kept arriving. Because getrequest retains every payload before forwarding, none of them are lost. When systems recover, replay the retained queue with exact original payloads.

// who uses getrequest

Built for every team that builds on APIs.

getrequest scales from a solo side project to a platform team managing production API traffic.

Backend & API engineers

Relay traffic through a controlled layer, retain every request before it hits your backend, and recover from failures with one-click replay. The reliability layer you'd otherwise have to build yourself.

Platform & DevOps teams

Replace piecemeal gateway configs, log pipelines, and retry infrastructure with one layer. getrequest Relays, Retains, and Recovers — without a dedicated engineer maintaining three separate tools.

QA & reliability engineers

Validate exactly what your system relays, inspect every retained payload against expected schema, and replay failures precisely to confirm fixes. Full request lifecycle visibility without custom instrumentation.

Relay. Retain. Recover. From day one.

The API Reliability Layer your team can activate today — no gateway config, no code changes, no ops overhead.
