A low-code solution to declaratively trigger webhooks based on changes and updates to your Postgres database. Useful for quickly setting up SMS notifications, transactional emails, automated payments, etc.
Hi Product Hunt!
We made Quailrunner, and we're excited to soft launch and show it to you.
Quailrunner is a low-code solution to trigger webhooks based on changes to your Postgres database. So far we've used it to set up SMS notifications, transactional emails, and automated payments in just a couple minutes for some side projects, and we think it can accomplish a lot more.
We built Quailrunner based on the needs of previous companies and side projects to have a robust and dependable system to do things based on changes and updates to a database. We think it's better than a quick slapdash system for a couple reasons:
- Idempotency and retries
- Observability to see what's going right or wrong
- Compatible with any third-party service with an API
We're hoping Quailrunner can help you save some time building, or enable you to take care of some pesky features that would not otherwise be worth the effort.
There's a free tier to give it a spin, but we also wanted to make sure the PH community got the full experience, so we've set up the promo code PHLAUNCH for a free month of the standard plan.
We're really excited to get the community's feedback on this, specifically on
- Bugs
- UX and clarity of experience
- Use cases (and if Quailrunner might work)
We'll be active in the comments for quite a while, and you can also contact us at [email protected].
Thanks so much!
Congratulations on the launch. A question and perhaps a suggestion
Why is this limited to Postgres ? If I wanted to say integrate it to any database and do say a slack integration on an event update it should allow me to do that right ?
Congratulations @angelofu. Does this solution support complex conditions for triggering webhooks?
I appreciate how I can manage webhook triggers without diving deep into code. It makes life so much simpler for developers.
Congrats to the Quailrunner team on the launch! This low-code solution sounds like a powerful tool for automating webhooks and streamlining database-driven workflows!
Triggering webhooks declaratively sounds super intuitive. @angelofu I think this tool is perfect for quickly setting up notifications or automating processes. Great job.
This looks fantastic, @angelofu!
Quailrunner seems like a game-changer for anyone looking to automate processes without diving deep into code. The emphasis on idempotency and retries is particularly reassuring, as it addresses a common pain point in webhook management. Plus, having observability built-in to monitor the workflows just adds another layer of confidence.
I'm especially intrigued by the potential
Thanks for creating this! The low-code approach is going to make things so much more accessible for people like me who want powerful features but don’t want to build everything from scratch.
In the next update version you can include more detailed analytics about trigger actions in the future. It would be helpful to see success/failure trends over time.
I am glad I won't have to keep hitting refresh on my database updates manually. Who has time for that . right?
This is a significant time saver for applications that require speedy automation. Great job!
Big congrats The idea behind this is so practical and well-executed. It’s clear you’ve put a lot of thought into making things efficient and user-friendly on the launch!
It's the kind of product that just makes sense. Simple, effective, and built to solve real problems. Congrats on a great launch,
Quailrunner sounds like an amazing tool! The low-code approach to triggering webhooks based on Postgres database updates is a game changer for developers. It's about time we had a solid solution that doesn’t compromise on features like idempotency and retries. Love how you’ve thought about observability too—being able to see what's going on can save so much time debugging.
Having a free tier is a great move, especially for the PH community! I'm definitely going to test it out with the promo code PHLAUNCH. Curious to see how it handles integration with various APIs as well—automating those pesky notification and transactional tasks can really streamline workflows.
Looking forward to seeing what other use cases you hear from the community, and keep up the great work! @angelofu, can't wait to see where Quailrunner goes from here!
I think this tool is perfect for quickly setting up notifications or automating processes. @angelofu one suggestion would be to add built-in integrations with popular third-party services like Twilio or Stripe. That way, users don’t have to set up webhooks separately and can manage everything in one place.
This product definitely fills a need, but I’m curious how does it handle large scale or high traffic databases? If a database is constantly updating, wouldn’t that trigger a ton of webhooks? Is there any way to batch or limit the number of triggers to avoid potential overloads?
Congrats, it looks promising. But how it is different from Firebase’s Real-time DB?
