Builds the tunneling and mesh-networking core — NAT traversal, SSH reverse proxies, and Iroh-based peer-to-peer transport behind PanicTunnl and PanicMonitr.
PanicLab is an independent, founder-run lab building panic-resistant, peer-to-peer infrastructure. We're builders, researchers, and homelabbers who got tired of renting access to our own machines — so we started shipping the escape hatches: tools that break through NATs and firewalls without cloud middlemen, walled gardens, or telemetry.
Everything we make is self-hostable, peer-to-peer, and yours — from PanicTunnl (a zero-knowledge SSH reverse proxy) and PanicMonitr (mesh monitoring over Iroh) to Who-Owes (a local-first expense splitter that never touches a server).
Builds the tunneling and mesh-networking core — NAT traversal, SSH reverse proxies, and Iroh-based peer-to-peer transport behind PanicTunnl and PanicMonitr.
Drives product direction, documentation, and the local-first sync model behind Who-Owes — turning the digital-sovereignty thesis into shippable tools.
