Alchemy provides a set of webhooks for tracking address activity and gas prices on several blockchains.
You can manually create webhooks from within the Alchemy Dashboard, or programmatically create webhooks to track activity for 10+ addresses using the Notify API.
Alchemy webhooks provide real-time notifications for primarily onchain data. They're often used to stream onchain activity for a set of wallets, events and traces on a set of smart contracts, and all block data for a particular chain, but are customizable to many different use cases. Here are a few quick links and an introduction video:

| Webhook Type | Description |
|---|---|
| Custom | Custom webhooks let you track any smart contract or marketplace activity, monitor any contract creation, or any other onchain interaction. This gives you infinite data access with precise filter controls to get the blockchain data you need. |
| Address Activity | Alchemy's Address Activity webhook tracks all ETH, ERC-20, ERC-721 and ERC-1155 transfers. This provides your app with real-time state changes when an address sends/receives tokens or ETH. Specify the addresses you want to track via API as well. A maximum of 100,000 addresses can be added to a single webhook. |
| NFT Activity | The NFT Activity webhook lets you track ERC-721 and ERC-1155 token contracts for NFTs. This provides your app with real-time state changes when an NFT is transferred between addresses. |
