Reviewer scorecard
“This is the kind of tool that makes you wonder how you worked without it.”
“Cloudflare Tunnel provides similar functionality for free. ngrok's paid features need to differentiate more.”
“Solid execution. Does what it promises and the DX is clean.”
“Simple tool that solves a real problem. The free tier is enough for development. Cloudflare Tunnel is the free alternative.”
“The team ships fast and responds to feedback. Good sign.”
“One command to expose localhost. Essential for webhook development and quick demos. The inspection UI is useful.”
