SteadIP today announced the launch of its new free FRP tunnel platform, designed to simplify how developers, homelab users, makers, and small businesses expose local services to the internet. The platform eliminates the need for complex cloud networking, VPN routing, or expensive infrastructure, offering a straightforward solution for publishing web apps, development servers, APIs, and more.
Originally built around dedicated IPv4 access over WireGuard, SteadIP has been refactored into a more accessible tunneling service that prioritizes speed and simplicity. Users can quickly publish local services using clean public hostnames powered by FRP, making the tool especially useful for developers testing webhooks, indie hackers launching side projects, and small teams that require reliable public access without managing reverse proxies, certificates, or cloud load balancers.
SteadIP’s goal is to provide a lightweight alternative to traditional tunnel platforms. The setup process is straightforward: install the client, authenticate, configure a tunnel, and go live. The platform is built for people who want control over their infrastructure without spending hours fighting networking problems. Future development will focus on custom domains, verified-user features, improved tunnel health checks, uptime visibility, richer dashboard controls, and scalable gateway infrastructure.
“SteadIP is being built for the people who just want their local service online without turning it into a DevOps project,” said Maxime Labelle, founder of SteadIP. “The new free tunnel model lets us help more developers, makers, and homelab users immediately.”
The platform is now available at steadip.com. SteadIP is a networking platform designed to help developers, homelab users, indie hackers, and small businesses expose local services to the public internet quickly and reliably. Originally created around dedicated IPv4 connectivity, SteadIP now focuses on free FRP-based tunnels, simple configuration, public hostnames, and practical infrastructure tools for people building and self-hosting projects.
