AI makes it easy to build SaaS–but webhooks still break in production

I’ve been building a small SaaS around webhook monitoring and kept running into this problem.

It’s surprisingly easy now to scaffold a full app with AI and get Stripe working locally. Everything feels “done” really quickly.

But production behavior is different — retries, out-of-order events, schema changes, and especially webhook silence where events just stop arriving.

Curious how others here are handling this in practice. Are you just logging webhooks, or do you have any monitoring/alerting around them?
