Hoist hunted 2 years has pivoted to a microservice platform that talks to API's. Trigger code when events happen in your favorite web services.
Seamlessly connect to your favorite data sources and Hoist will watch them in the background. When something happens in your data sources, Hoist runs an event. You choose which events you want watch by selecting them from the 'trigger' menu.
@kwdinc Hi Kevin, Thanks for submitting us on Product Hunt. I’m Jamie the CEO of Hoist. We’ve recently launched the platform into Open Beta so we’d love as much feedback from people as possible. Sign up have a go and be sure to tell us what you think!
Looks really cool. In the past I've had to code up and deploy simple, single-purpose Ruby or Meteor apps to interface between two services, this looks like it could replace them pretty well.
@idmtr Hi Dimitar. Hubot is a great bot script that works by listening to chat rooms and parsing messages. Hoist could be used to build a hubot style application, but it's powers are different. Unlike a chatbot, Hoist can be plugged into all sorts of events (we're building more connectors all the time) so you can code actions when a change is made in a GitHub repository, or when someone mentions you on Twitter and then use that event to trigger an action in another service. So Hoist is focused on event triggered code modules from APIs rather than monitoring a single channel for key words. Also Hoist is fully managed and hosted so there's no need to find another service to host your code. it lives and runs right on the Hoist platform itself
Great reply@buildmaster! Thanks for clearing this out. Now the trouble is that I see too many applications of this, so where do I start humm humm, head scratch:) Thanks!
