# Reliability

> How webhook.co protects your events end to end — durable capture, at-least-once delivery, automatic retries, and dead-lettering.

Here's how webhook.co is built to hold onto your events, so a hiccup on any side doesn't lose them.

<CardGroup cols={2}>
  <Card title="Durable before anything else" icon="floppy-disk">
    A request that reaches your ingest URL is written down **before** it's verified or processed. A
    bad signature, an unknown provider, or a downstream outage labels an event — it doesn't discard
    it.
  </Card>

  <Card title="At-least-once delivery" icon="paper-plane">
    Outbound events are delivered at least once, with automatic retries on a fixed schedule and
    **dead-lettering** when a receiver stays down — so a brief outage on your side doesn't drop
    events.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Retries that don't cost you" icon="rotate">
    A delivery counts once, when first dispatched — however many retry attempts it takes. A
    receiver's downtime is never your cost.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Replay whatever you've captured" icon="clock-rotate-left">
    Every captured event stays replayable within your [retention window](/help/usage/data-retention)
    — recover from an outage by replaying, instead of asking the provider to resend.
  </Card>
</CardGroup>

<Note>
  webhook.co runs on a best-effort basis and doesn't publish an uptime or service-level guarantee.
  What it does provide is the durability model above: your captured events are safe to inspect and
  replay, and delivery keeps retrying rather than dropping.
</Note>
