EchoRelay is a managed runtime for custom API integrations.
Describe one integration once: what comes in, the target system, credentials, the retry policy, and how the answer maps back. EchoRelay validates each inbound request, maps it, replies synchronously, passes streams through, fans out to multiple targets, or queues delivery with automatic retry, a dead-letter queue and replay.
Every configuration change is versioned. Preview, diff, dry run, schedule, publish and roll back. When a vendor changes their API or rotates a credential, you update the configuration and publish. Deploy nothing.
Build and operate each integration through the REST API, an MCP server so an AI agent can do the wiring, or the web panel. Free to start, no card required.

LiveAgent stands out with its ultra-fast performance, robust ticketing system, and user-friendly interface. It is a scalable solution equipped with over 180+ features and 200+ integrations, capable of growing as your customer service needs expand.
EchoRelay.dev's answer:
What costs you money in an integration is not building it, it is the week a vendor renames a field. EchoRelay holds each integration as configuration instead of code you deploy: what comes in, where it goes, how it authenticates, what happens when the target is down, and how the answer maps back. Change any of it, preview the diff, publish, roll back if you were wrong. Deploy nothing. Every request leaves a delivery receipt, so when someone asks whether an order reached the warehouse, you answer from the record rather than from the logs.
LiveAgent's answer
LiveAgent offers 24/7 availability, an exceptional 20-second average response time, and extraordinary usability. Suitable for any type of business, its unbeatable value for money makes it a top choice for reliable and efficient customer service.
EchoRelay.dev's answer:
Most alternatives are one of two things: a catalogue of prebuilt connectors for popular products, or a workflow canvas. Neither helps with the adapter you had to write yourself, because the system on the other end is a customer's ERP or a partner's ordering API that nobody ships a connector for. EchoRelay is for that one. You describe it once and we operate it. The real comparison is the adapter service you would otherwise build and maintain in-house, and the difference is that a schema change becomes a mapping edit instead of a release.
LiveAgent's answer
Our primary audience consists of businesses of all sizes seeking to enhance their customer service experience. This includes startups, SMEs, and large corporations across various industries.
EchoRelay.dev's answer:
Software teams that maintain a handful of custom integrations and have nobody whose job that is. There are developers, which is why they can run a runtime and read a mapping, but no integration team, so every vendor change competes with the product roadmap for the same people. Typically a shop wired into an ERP, a tax office, a fulfilment partner and a few marketing tools, or a product reselling a dozen vendor APIs behind one format of its own.
LiveAgent's answer
Born out of the need for better customer interactions, LiveAgent was founded in 2004. Driven by the philosophy 'to treat customers as people, not tickets,' we've grown into a leading customer service solution.
EchoRelay.dev's answer:
It started from a pattern that shows up in almost every software team that talks to systems it does not control. The integrations that hurt are never the popular ones with a ready-made connector. They are the customer's ERP, the partner's ordering API, the tax office endpoint: one-off adapters somebody wrote once and now nobody wants to own.
The cost is not writing them. It is everything after. A vendor renames a field and someone edits adapter code, deploys it and hopes nothing else moved. A credential rotates and the adapter quietly breaks until a customer notices. The vendor has an outage and the retry logic you wrote yourself has to absorb it. Then someone asks whether an order actually arrived, and the honest answer is buried in logs.
EchoRelay was built to move that work out of application code. Describe the integration once as configuration: what comes in, where it goes, how it authenticates, what happens when the target is down, and how the answer maps back. When the vendor changes something, you change the mapping, preview the diff, publish, and roll back if you were wrong. Deploy nothing. Every request leaves a delivery receipt, so the question about that order has an answer you can point at.
LiveAgent's answer
As a cloud-based solution, LiveAgent employs cutting-edge technologies to ensure a fast, secure, and reliable customer service platform. Our intricate infrastructure guarantees optimal functionality and high performance at all times.
EchoRelay.dev's answer:
Nothing you have to install or operate. From the outside EchoRelay is plain HTTP: a REST API, an MCP server so an AI agent can do the wiring, and a web panel. You send a request to an address and we handle the rest.
