Know which skyhooks to hit, and when.
HookWatch records every skyhook window in New Eden, day and night. It forecasts when each hook will open next, shows what is actually in the bay, and plans a run that gets you the most ISK for the time you have.
Log in with your EVE character. No API scopes are requested and there's no real money involved: a 7-day free trial, then 350M ISK per 30 days, paid in game. Made for a desktop or laptop screen.

How it works
Recording, around the clock
We check ESI's list of raidable skyhooks every five minutes and log every window, including the ones that get raided early.
Forecasting
Hook timers follow a pattern. From the windows we've seen, HookWatch predicts each hook's next window and works out what's in the bay.
Planning your run
Tell it where you're starting and how long you've got. It picks the hooks and the order, and uses Thera or Turnur where that saves jumps.
Inside a hook
Click any hook and its tab tells you what you need before you undock.
- When it opens next, worked out from every window it has had, with how sure that is.
- What's in the bay: set the fill or let HookWatch estimate it, and see the units, the m³ to haul and the value at Jita.
- How risky the system is: live kills, cloaky hunters, camps, ratting, and when it usually gets killed in.
What you get
What's open right now
Hooks raidable now or opening within two hours, the time left on each, and a warning when there isn't enough for your raid.
When the next window opens
A forecast time and a confidence for every hook, getting better as more windows are recorded.
What's in the bay
Valued at Jita, counting only what the recording can account for, so a hook emptied an hour ago doesn't look full.
Run planning
Compare plans for the most loot, the best ISK per hour, the quietest systems or the shortest trip.
Danger in the system
Recent kills, cloaky hunters, gate camps, ratting, and the hours the system usually sees kills.
Routing
Gate routes plus live Thera and Turnur connections, with shortest, safest and low/null options.
7 days free, then 350M ISK per 30 days
A week is long enough to raid a few hooks and see whether the forecasts hold up before you pay anything. To pay, send ISK in game to our payment character with your personal code as the reason. It's usually credited within the hour. Any amount counts pro rata, time stacks, and nothing renews automatically. CCP's developer licence allows tools to charge ISK, and HookWatch never takes real money.
Bring a friend: every player gets an invite link. When someone who joins through yours has paid for their first 30 days, you both get 7 days free.
One free trial per player: the character needs to be at least 30 days old, and it's one trial per browser and internet connection. To check that, we keep a hashed marker of each for 90 days, never your IP address itself.
