How it works

One command to a public URL

01

Install

One command installs the CLI globally on your machine.

$ npm i -g prevbox
02

Run

Point it at your local server. The TUI opens — sign in via the browser if needed.

$ prevbox serve http 3000
03

Share

A public https URL appears instantly. Share it with anyone.

$ https://happy-fox-42.previewbox.dev
Features

Built for developers

Everything you need to share your work

Instant tunnels

Get a public URL in seconds. No configuration, no port forwarding. Just works.

Custom subdomains

Choose your own subdomain or let us generate one. Your project, your brand, your URL.

HTTPS by default

Every tunnel gets a free SSL certificate. Your traffic is encrypted end-to-end.

Multi-tunnel dashboard

Run several tunnels at once. Watch live requests, latency, and errors from one screen.

Live metrics

Per-tunnel request counts, response times, bandwidth, and status — all updating in real-time.

Full-screen TUI

A Claude Code-style interface in your terminal. Keyboard-driven, no mouse needed.

Use Cases

Get Stripe, GitHub, or Twilio webhooks delivered to your local machine during development.

Team collaboration

Share your work-in-progress with teammates. No need to push to staging just for a quick review.
