New relay service allows developers to receive webhooks without exposing systems to the public internet.
Businessnet today announced the launch of AgentWebhook, a webhook relay platform designed to allow developers and automation teams to receive webhook events without exposing internal systems to the public internet.
The service introduces a pull-based webhook model where external services send events to a relay endpoint, and developers retrieve them when their systems are ready. The approach removes the need for public URLs, open ports, or tunneling tools that are commonly required to receive webhooks from providers such as Stripe, GitHub, Slack, or other integrations.
Webhook usage has expanded as automation platforms, AI agents, and developer integrations become standard components of modern infrastructure. Many teams rely on webhooks to trigger workflows and coordinate services, yet these integrations traditionally require inbound access to private systems.
AgentWebhook addresses that constraint by storing incoming webhook events until a client retrieves them via CLI or API. The system includes event lifecycle features such as retries, acknowledgments, replay capability, and encrypted storage for event payloads.
"AI agents and automation workflows are accelerating across every part of the developer ecosystem, but webhook infrastructure hasn't evolved with that shift," said Ben Simkin, CEO of Businessnet. "Most tools still assume you can expose a public endpoint. AgentWebhook changes that model by letting developers receive and process webhooks without opening their systems to the internet. It's a simpler, safer approach that fits how modern teams actually build."
The platform provides a dashboard for monitoring event volume, payloads, sources, and delivery status. Developers can also replay failed events or inspect payloads during debugging and integration work. The relay is designed to support environments where inbound network exposure is restricted, including local development machines, private infrastructure, enterprise networks, and edge devices.
Growth in automation tooling and developer integrations has expanded the market for webhook infrastructure. Industry analysis estimates the global opportunity for webhook relay and related developer tools at approximately $352 million, driven by demand for secure integrations, DevOps automation, and AI-driven workflows.
AgentWebhook is available globally beginning today. Developers can create a webhook source, obtain an ingest URL and secret, and begin receiving events through the platform’s dashboard, CLI, or API at https://app.agentwebhook.com
