Show the thing you are building
Send a client or teammate a link to the app on your Mac. No staging deploy, no cleanup later.
A small tool for people who build things
A free localhost tunnel
for your Mac.
Expose your local app with a public HTTPS URL. Share development servers, test webhooks and open localhost from anywhere.
macOS 14+ · Apple silicon and Intel · Free to start
01 / The point
Infrastructure should feel like a shortcut, not a second job.
There is already enough software between an idea and the person you want to show it to. Pervio stays in the menu bar, gets out of your way, and leaves you with a URL.
02 / In practice
Useful in the moments that usually get complicated.
Receive webhooks locally
Point Stripe, GitHub, or any webhook provider at your local endpoint and keep the real feedback loop.
Test on a real device
Open your local server from a phone, tablet, or another machine on the internet.
03 / The deal
Free forever.
If that's all you need.
The free version is not a demo. It is one real tunnel with real HTTPS and no expiration. Pro is for the day Pervio becomes part of how you work.
Free
- 1 tunnel
- Real HTTPS
- 5 GB / month
Pro
- Unlimited tunnels
- Custom subdomain
- TCP + HTTP/HTTPS
€39 once for Pro.
No subscriptions. Fair use applies: we are an indie project and may limit abuse.
04 / By design
Native
A proper macOS app, not a browser tab wearing a desktop costume.
Honest
Clear limits on Free. One lifetime price on Pro. No fake urgency.
Small
One useful action: make a local service reachable, then leave you alone.
05 / FAQ
Questions before you open localhost.
What is a localhost tunnel?
A localhost tunnel gives a local development server a public URL so other people and services can reach it over the internet.
Is Pervio a free localhost tunnel?
Yes. Free includes one real tunnel, HTTPS and 5 GB of monthly bandwidth. It does not expire and no card is required.
Can I use Pervio with Angular, React or Vite?
Yes. Run your development server normally, choose its local port in Pervio and share the generated public URL.
Can I receive webhooks on localhost?
Yes. Use the public URL as the endpoint for Stripe, GitHub or another webhook provider while your local app handles the request.
Does Pervio require a command line?
No. Pervio is a native macOS menu bar app. Click the P icon, choose a port and start the tunnel.
