AI app preview and localhost sharing use cases

AI development

Let AI publish the work it just made.

Ask a supported coding agent to create a temporary localhost tunnel for the local project through Pubto Desktop and return the public address.

Publish with an AI agent

Example requestPreview this project with Pubto for 30 minutes.

Office access

Connect to the office without carrying the office computer.

Map an authorized remote HTTP, WebSocket, or TCP endpoint to a local port. Keep source authentication and TLS enabled; TCP uses Desktop-to-Desktop mapping and is not a raw public port or a recommended path to a production database.

Map an authorized service

Example requestMap the team MySQL endpoint to localhost:13306.

Client handoff

Present the file without carrying the computer.

Publish a selected PowerPoint, PDF, spreadsheet, or folder from your computer. Supported formats open in the browser and other formats use a download fallback.

Share files and folders

Example requestShare the product deck with a password until 8pm.

Team preview

Give every reviewer the same working page.

Publish a frontend, API, and WebSocket service as independent endpoints, then collect their links on one share page. Every publication keeps its own address, state, and expiry.

Create a review link

Example requestPublish the frontend and API, then build a review page.
