Current Development Pain Points:

• Security Risk: Exposing development environments to the internet creates potential attack vectors
• Cost Concerns: Professional tunneling services often require paid subscriptions
• Configuration Overhead: Setting up tunnels requires additional software and configuration
• Unrealistic Testing: Mock data rarely captures edge cases found in real webhooks
• IP Restrictions: Corporate firewalls often block tunneling services

The Public Webhook Relay solves these challenges by creating a secure relay that allows real webhook data to reach your local environment without exposing your network to the internet.
