OutboundIQ helps you understand and optimize your outbound API calls in real time, not just monitor them. Instead of guessing when a provider is down, slow, or degrading, OutboundIQ gives you visibility and decision-making power across your external dependencies. The problem ----------- [](#the-problem) Your app depends on APIs. Payments, KYC, messaging, analytics, everything. When something breaks: - Dashboards stay green - Errors spike quietly - One endpoint fails while others work - You do not know which provider to trust The solution: API Intelligence ------------------------------ [](#the-solution-api-intelligence) OutboundIQ tracks outbound requests and turns them into actionable insights: - Real-time provider health - Endpoint-level visibility (not just provider status) - Smart routing recommendations - Collective intelligence across your traffic Installation ------------ [](#installation) ``` composer require outboundiq/outboundiq-php ``` Setup ----- [](#setup) ### Option A: one-liner bootstrap (recommended) [](#option-a-one-liner-bootstrap-recommended) ``` require_once 'vendor/autoload.php'; $client = outboundiq_init('your-api-key', [ 'transport' => 'async', // async | sync | queue ]); ``` ### Option B: explicit client construction [](#option-b-explicit-client-construction) ``` use OutboundIQ\Client; $client = new Client('your-api-key', [ 'enabled' => true, 'transport' => 'async', // async | sync | queue 'batch_size' => 50, 'timeout' => 5, 'retry_attempts' => 3, 'url' => 'https://agent.outboundiq.dev/api/metric', ]); ``` Note: this package uses API key authentication. You do not pass `project_id` in the client constructor. Quick example: smart routing ---------------------------- [](#quick-example-smart-routing) ``` $decision = $client->recommend('payment-processing'); $provider = $decision['decision']['use'] ?? 'stripe'; // Use the recommended provider dynamically ``` Instead of hardcoding providers, your app adapts in real time. Track your API calls -------------------- [](#track-your-api-calls) OutboundIQ supports multiple transport layers: - cURL interception (registered by `outboundiq_init`) - `file_get_contents` interception (registered by `outboundiq_init`) - Guzzle middleware (available after `outboundiq_init`, then attach handler stack on each Guzzle client you want tracked) ### Guzzle example [](#guzzle-example) ``` use GuzzleHttp\Client as GuzzleClient; use OutboundIQ\Interceptors\GuzzleMiddleware; $http = new GuzzleClient([ 'handler' => GuzzleMiddleware::getHandlerStack(), ]); $response = $http->get('https://api.example.com/status'); ``` Important: Guzzle requests are tracked only for clients created with `GuzzleMiddleware::getHandlerStack()`. If you already have existing Guzzle clients, update their handler config to use that stack. API Intelligence methods ------------------------ [](#api-intelligence-methods) ### Provider health [](#provider-health) ``` $status = $client->providerStatus('stripe'); ``` Use this to inspect provider-level health, incidents, and decision data. ### Endpoint intelligence [](#endpoint-intelligence) ``` $endpoint = $client->endpointStatus('stripe-post-v1-charges'); ``` Because providers do not fail uniformly, endpoints do. ### Smart recommendations [](#smart-recommendations) ``` $decision = $client->recommend('kyc-verification'); ``` OutboundIQ recommends which provider path to use based on live performance signals. Why OutboundIQ -------------- [](#why-outboundiq) Most tools tell you what happened. OutboundIQ helps you decide what to do next. - Not just logs, decisions - Not just monitoring, intelligence - Not just alerts, actions Works anywhere -------------- [](#works-anywhere) Framework-agnostic: - Vanilla PHP - Laravel (or use `laravel-outboundiq` for framework-native integration) - Symfony - Custom stacks Configuration reference ----------------------- [](#configuration-reference) ``` $client = new Client('your-api-key', [ 'enabled' => true, 'transport' => 'async', // async | sync | queue 'batch_size' => 50, 'buffer_size' => 100, 'flush_interval' => 30, 'timeout' => 5, 'retry_attempts' => 3, 'temp_dir' => sys_get_temp_dir(), 'url' => 'https://agent.outboundiq.dev/api/metric', ]); ``` Environment convenience: ``` export OUTBOUNDIQ_KEY=your-api-key ``` When `OUTBOUNDIQ_KEY` is set, bootstrap auto-initialization can kick in. Use cases --------- [](#use-cases) - Payment provider failover - KYC provider optimization - API reliability monitoring - Multi-provider routing - Detecting silent endpoint failures Learn more ---------- [](#learn-more) - Website: - Docs: Contributing ------------ [](#contributing) Contributions, feedback, and ideas are welcome.
