Split across apps
App size
$5per 512 MB + 0.5 vCPU, a month
Buy power once and split it across as many apps as you want. Processing power scales with memory, so there is only one number to pick.

Pay for power,
not per app.
Most hosts bill you again for every app you run. We don't. You buy one pool of power and split it across as many apps as you like. Start free, with no card, and add capacity only when something actually needs it.

Database included at every size, down to Free. Database memoryis query speed; storage is how much data you can keep, for a database or for an app's own files. They are separate. Prices in USD, VAT may apply.
Three things you can buy
Add only what you need, in the amount you need. Nothing else is metered.
Speed, not space
Database memory
$10per 1 GB of memory, a month
Working memory for your managed database, which is what makes queries fast. This is not disk space. Optional too: every account already gets a database on the free baseline.
A small database becomes a bottleneck before anything else does. With less memory it takes longer to fetch and cache your data, so queries feel slower. Size this up if your app spends its time waiting on the database.
Space, not speed
Storage
$0.20per 1 GB of disk, a month
Disk space, which is how much data you can keep. One pool: give it to a managed database, to an app that keeps its own files, or split it between them. The first 10 GB are free.
Running low on disk can stall writes, so grow it before you get close. Storage only ever grows, so you never lose data to a resize.
Database memory and storage are different things. Memory is how fast your database answers. Storage is how much data you keep, and the same pool also covers files an app keeps for itself. A 2 GB database memory is not 2 GB of space, and you buy them separately.
One pool, shared across your apps
Think of it like a power supply. Pick the size you need, then plug in whatever fits. Move power between apps whenever you want.
- Web app
- API
- Background worker
- Room to grow
Add power the moment an app needs it, and take it back when things calm down. You only pay for what you keep.
What real projects pay
A managed database is included at every size, free included.

An always-on app or agent
$5/mo
One app or agent with room to breathe, and a database.

- Room to keep growing
Several busy apps and a large database
$52/mo
About 3 GB of app power, 2 GB of database memory, and extra disk.
- About 3 GB of power across your apps

Included at every size
The things other hosts charge extra for are just part of it here.
Free and up
- A live HTTPS URL, with certificates handled for you
- A managed database, even on the free allowance
- Auto-deploy on every push to your main branch
- Deploy straight from your computer with one command
- Environment variables and encrypted secrets
- Live logs, CPU and memory charts, deploy history
- Scheduled tasks
- An exportable, tamper-evident audit log
Any paid capacity
- Private apps, reachable only with a token you control

Buying a single unit of app size is enough to unlock both. There is no separate premium plan to climb to.
Questions people ask first
Do I pay for each app?
No. You buy one pool of power and split it across as many apps as you want. Running five small apps costs the same as running one app five times the size. The limit is the size of your pool, never a number of apps.
What do I get for free?
256 MB of always-on app power and 10 GB of storage, with no card. That includes a managed database and automatic HTTPS. The free storage covers a managed database or an app's own files, not both. Free apps are public.
What is the difference between database memory and storage?
Memory is speed, storage is space. Database memory is the working memory your database uses to fetch and cache data, so more of it makes queries faster. Storage is disk: how much data you can actually keep. They are priced and bought separately, at $10 per GB of memory and $0.20 per GB of disk. So "2 GB of database memory" does not mean 2 GB of space, and most projects need far more storage than memory.
Can an app keep its own files?
Yes. Turn on app storage for that app and it gets a folder that survives restarts and deploys, which is what a SQLite file or an uploads directory needs. It comes out of the same storage pool as the managed database disk, at the same $0.20 per GB, so there is nothing extra to buy. An app with its own storage runs as a single copy. Most apps are better off with the managed database.
What happens when my app needs more?
We tell you, and you decide. Nothing scales your bill on its own. When an app is running close to its size we show a warning in the dashboard, and adding capacity is one click.
Can I shrink again later?
Yes, any time. You are not locked into a plan or a term. Dial capacity back down and you stop paying for it from the next billing period.
Is there a charge per deploy or per build?
No. Deploy as often as you like. You pay for the capacity your apps hold, not for the act of shipping.
How am I billed?
Monthly, in USD, through Stripe. You can manage or cancel the subscription yourself from the dashboard at any time.
