Witness vs OpenTimestamps: Tamper-Proof Logs Without a Blockchain
OpenTimestamps anchors to Bitcoin for trustless proof. Witness uses cryptographic signatures for instant proof. Different trust models for different needs.

Hookdeck manages incoming webhooks with routing and transformation. Relay schedules outgoing webhooks with delays and retries. Different tools for different jobs.
Webhooks arrive when your app is down. Catch buffers them, verifies signatures, lets you replay on demand. Always-on ingestion, zero data loss.
Create, verify, rotate, and revoke API keys via API. Custom prefixes, scope model, sub-millisecond verification, zero infrastructure.
Prevent duplicate webhook processing. Coordinate deploys. Ensure only one worker runs a job. FIFO fairness, auto-release, no Redis required.
No dashboard required. Create monitors via API, get alerts via webhook, automate everything with code or AI agents.
Need to send a webhook later? Skip the infrastructure. One API call schedules it, fires it automatically, and retries on failure.
What went right, what went wrong, and what I'd do differently if starting over. A transparent look at building a micro-SaaS.
Every millisecond of API latency compounds through your stack. Here's why we built on Cloudflare's edge and what it means for your architecture.
You need provable audit trails. You don't need a blockchain. Hash chains and digital signatures give you cryptographic guarantees without the baggage.
Retry libraries feel like solutions. They're actually complexity you now own. Here's why webhook delivery needs infrastructure, not code.
We run four products on Cloudflare Durable Objects. Here's what we learned about the programming model, gotchas, and when they're the right choice.
Seat-based pricing punishes growth. Usage-based pricing aligns incentives. Here's why Solenoid bills by API call.
LaunchDarkly is powerful. Gate is simple. Here's how to decide which your team actually needs.
Feature flag platforms keep adding complexity. But most teams just need on/off. Here's the case for minimal flags.
Your users are burning through AI credits. Here's how to track and limit usage without building billing infrastructure.
Job queues are infrastructure debt. Here's how to schedule webhooks without Redis, without workers, without ops.
One command connects your AI assistant to all Solenoid APIs. Feature flags, metering, webhooks, and more — directly from Claude or Cursor.
OpenMeter is a full billing platform. Meter is a credit balance API. Here's how to pick the right tool for your metering needs.
