Secure connectivity to dev/test is hard
We’ve all been there! As a developer, you waste a lot of time and effort tweaking firewall settings and routing configurations when we want to:
- Test integration with webhook providers and
external APIs - Preview websites and applications with fellow
team members - Test and validate mobile backends
solution

Serve apps and APIs securely from localhost or your dev/test/sandbox environment with just one command or one line of code.
- No need to spend cycles changing network configurations on firewalls, proxies, and gateways
- Share apps with teammates instantly
- Reproduce HTTP and webhook requests with a single click
Boost developer productivity
Save time and effort
Achieve 90% time savings with development, testing and debugging in real-time. Free developers from having to navigate complex networking and firewall configurations.
Accelerate time to market
Iterate faster by speeding up dev/test cycles and feedback loops from customers and other team members.
Deliver higher quality software
Improve quality and minimize risks in production by testing real-world scenarios.
Robust security and controls
Authenticate and authorize
Use your preferred Identity provider such as Okta, Azure AD, or Google Suite to restrict access to developer apps.
Enforce policies
Apply policies such as mTLS and IP restrictions to your services and validate webhook request signatures at the edge. Prevent account sprawl through a centrally-managed, IT-controlled ngrok account for all developers.
Monitor traffic
Block unauthorized requests even before they reach your service, and monitor events in your SIEM or observability tool by forwarding logs and traffic flow.
