    EchoRelay

    N/AN/AEchoRelay is a managed runtime for custom API integrations. Teams that maintain their own adapters carry the cost of every change at the other end. A vendor renames a field and someone edits adapter code, deploys it, and hopes nothing else moved. A credential rotates and the adapter breaks until somebody notices. EchoRelay moves that work out of application code. An integration is described once as configuration: what comes in, the target system, its credentials,…

    Additional DetailsThree ways to pay, and you can move between them. Start free with no card. Buy credits when you need them, with no subscription. Or subscribe for a monthly allowance and a lower rate on anything above it. One request fans out to its targets, and each delivery is charged separately, so cost follows how many systems a request actually reaches. Deliveries that fail on our side are not charged. Nothing is priced per seat, and every plan includes the full REST API, the MCP server and the web panel. Current plans, add-ons, credit packs and the full comparison are on the pricing page linked above. Prices exclude VAT; applicable taxes are calculated at checkout.—

    Routing, protocol transformation, message transformation and service aggregation are very well performed by WebSphere Message Broker (WMB). It is not very suitable for integration with databases.

    ScreenShots

    EchoRelay Screenshots

    Screenshot of One address in. Many systems out, each shaped by a configuration you can preview, publish and roll back. Deploy nothing.Screenshot of Lines are versions of the API, v1 and v2, each with its own base URL. Build the next one beside the version that is serving traffic, then activate it when it is ready.Screenshot of Set the target, how it authenticates, and whether it gets queued delivery, synchronous delivery or streaming. Anything still undelivered lands in failed deliveries.Screenshot of A mapping is a tree of typed nodes. Edit it as JSON or build it visually. Both read back the same thing, so what an agent writes opens in the builder unchanged.Screenshot of Filter by request id, method, status or path. Open a row to see what each target answered.Screenshot of Deliveries that ran out of attempts wait here with the reason and the payload. Replay one, or all of them.
