They also do reverse tunnels, which are handy if you want to expose your website, web app, API ect to the internet without exposing your whole ass network to the internet and deal with the security implications of that, or if you don’t have/don’t want to have full control over the upstream local network (eg you want to stand up a web app on a weird port inside a corporate network where the ICT team won’t let you do port forwarding on the router firewall) including not having a static public IP address. It also handles SSL so you don’t need to install your own certs.
This lets me run websites and an API from servers in my house, without needing to do any firewall stuff on my router or having a static IP issued by my ISP. I only need one tunnel to each server, and each tunnel can handle routing all of the sites on a server to their various domain names.
