Hey Product Hunters! 👋 We're thrilled to launch Pinggy to the Product Hunt community! Using Pinggy, with a single command, you can share your apps running on localhost over the internet. Just paste this command on your terminal to get a tunnel to port 8000: ssh -p 443 -R0:localhost:8000 qr@a.pinggy.io That's it! No downloads required. Here’s what you can do with Tunnel: ⚡ Instant tunnel, no downloads: One command to put localhost on the web. No package / tool is downloaded. No root access required. 🧑‍💻 Debugger: Built in HTTP request response debugger. 🌐 HTTPS, TCP, TLS tunnels: Connect any service, SSH into your raspberry Pi, remotely connect to your home PC, etc. Pinggy lets you tunnel to any service. 🚀 Get custom domain and persistent URLs 🔐 Password protect your tunnels or set IP whitelist to restrict access.

OMG that's INCREDIBLE! Making local dev so much easier for remote teams (which there are more and more of because, well, that's how things should be). Incredible work!!

@trent_kennelly Glad you like Pinggy. We will be adding more features to help remote teams work in collaboration.

Just created an account on Pinggy. I think Pinggy is the only logical ngrok alternative I have seen in years. I could easily use it to present my notebook and a streamlit app running on my localhost. Super useful for remote presentation of web apps! Great product indeed and very generous pricing.

@souvic_chakraborty Glad you found Pinggy useful! We are also working on a GUI app to manage tunnels easily.

This is really cool, I've been thinking of a couple different projects I'd like to have shared with others outside my network and this seems like a great, simple solution to that. Congrats on the launch!
Bishakh Ghosh
@bradydowling Thank you! Yes, sharing is just one command away. No need to install anything either.

How does this compare to something like ngrok? Your pricing is a lot better so I'm seriously considering switching.
Bishakh Ghosh
@mikias it is similar to ngrok. You can definitely try the one month free trial!

Pinggy helped me tremendously when I was looking for a cheap way to expose small game servers hosted locally for friends. The support on discord was really helpful too, I like how involved the devs are with their userbase.
Adam Gold
Oh super nice! going to give this one a try.
Bishakh Ghosh
@adamgold7 Definitely! Just copy the Pinggy command and you are good to go :) . No need to install anything.
Bishakh Ghosh
Thanks a lot! It's super easy to try. Just one command on the terminal will start a tunnel.

I'd like to know more about the security measures in place—how does Pinggy ensure the tunnels remain secure, especially with sensitive data? Additionally, does Pinggy have limits on the number of tunnels or restrictions on usage for different account types?
Bishakh Ghosh
@vasily_kolosov1 to secure a tunnel, Pinggy supports (a) http basic authentication, (b) header based key authentication, or (c) ip whitelist. Pinggy pro starts at $3 per tunnel per month.
