NAT traversal as a service

Offer simplified NAT traversal for developers building peer-to-peer apps. Abstracts away networking complexity.

Why now

Growing centralization concerns are reviving interest in decentralized networks, but NAT remains a barrier.

Who for
P2P developers
Business model
Pay-per-usage API
Effort
A few months

Developers building P2P applications waste months solving NAT traversal problems.

A service providing reliable NAT punching with simple API endpoints and fallback options.

Indie devs and startups building decentralized apps would pay to save development time.

Start with STUN/TURN servers and basic connection brokering.

Biggest risk is WebRTC and WebTransport making custom solutions obsolete.
