Beam

Features

Everything you need to expose your local environment to the world, securely and effortlessly.

P2P Domain Registry
Register domains that live in the distributed hash table. No central authority, no fees, no censorship.
Tor Integration
Built-in Tor instance creates hidden services on the fly. 100% anonymous routing with end-to-end encryption.
Local & Global Resolving
One domain name (e.g. app.local) works on localhost and across the internet simultaneously.
Zero Configuration
Auto-detects your framework (Next.js, Vite, Astro, etc.) and forwards the correct port.
Encrypted Tunnels
Military-grade encryption for all traffic. Even we can't see what you're transmitting.
Offline Capable
Local resolution works even without internet access. Develop on a plane or train without breaking links.
Mobile Testing
Test on any device instantly. Just scan a QR code or type the local domain.
Performance Modes
Choose between Fast (P2P), Balanced, and Private (Tor) modes depending on your needs.
Open Source
MIT licensed. Audit the code, fork it, or contribute back. No vendor lock-in ever.
