Our take
Webhooks - the inverse of standard APIs - enable servers to send data to clients based on specified triggers, and are vital for the functionality of modern apps. Sviz supplies Webhooks-as-a-Service for all scales of business, enabling them to transform their software products into critical, real-time data infrastructure.
As webhooks become increasingly popular and are regarded as more and more important, Svix is positioned well to serve what will undoubtedly be an increase in demand in the future. The company has good funding at its back as it continues to expand its teams across the business, as well as its market availability.
