Run your app straight from Git

Yes. If you end up with a project in a Git repo, you just connect the repo, and the app is built and rolled out automatically. Your AI tool can even trigger publishing for you – all it takes is pushing the changes to Git.

Even though we often talk about Node, the platform isn't limited to it. Nixpacks automatically recognizes most common stacks – Node.js, Python, Go, PHP, Ruby, Rust, Java and .NET, as well as static websites. If you have something special, you run your own Dockerfile and decide for yourself.

When you roll out a new version, it's started and health-checked alongside the one already running. Traffic only switches over once the new version responds as it should. If the health check fails, the old version keeps running – so a failed rollout causes no downtime.

Nothing. The database and files live outside the app itself, so they're untouched when a new version is rolled out. Only the code is rebuilt from Git. If something does go wrong, you have daily backups of both database and files for 30 days.

Most apps, APIs and websites built with AI run fine on small, which has 1 GB of memory. If your app uses a lot of memory, for example for image processing, or gets a lot of traffic, medium or large is a better fit. You can switch between small, medium and large yourself at any time, and the staging environment is always included.

Your app runs in its own container with fixed memory and processing power: small has 1 GB of memory and one CPU, medium 2 GB and one CPU, large 4 GB and two CPUs, and extra large 8 GB and four CPUs. The staging environment runs in its own small container. Database and storage live outside the container and are the same for all sizes.

Yes. Auto-build with Nixpacks is the easiest option, but if you have your own Dockerfile, it runs instead and gives you full control over the build step.

Yes. You follow the startup log directly in the control panel, and with the built-in terminal you can connect to your app while it's running – handy when you need to find out why something isn't behaving as expected.

Yes, a MySQL or PostgreSQL database is included, and we manage it for you. It runs outside the app itself and is untouched by rollouts. Your app gets the credentials automatically as environment variables (including DATABASE_URL), and daily backups are included.

You set environment variables and secrets in the control panel – never in the code. They apply both when the app is built and when it runs, in every size, so keys like your OpenAI or Stripe key stay safely outside the repo.

Yes. Add management and support, and you get technical help when you're stuck, plus help with setting up and publishing your app. If you need closer follow-up, get in touch, and we'll find the level that suits you.

You do, fully and completely. The code lives in your own Git repo, and your data lives in your own database – nothing is locked in with us. If you want to move to another provider, you take your repo with you, download a backup of the database and the volume, and carry on. We're happy to help with the export. There's no minimum term, and you're never locked in.

You pay a fixed monthly price for the size you've chosen – no surprises based on traffic or usage. If your app needs more memory or power, you switch to a larger size in the control panel. The price follows the size, so you always know what your next invoice will be.

Yes. Point your domain at the app, and a free SSL certificate is put in place automatically, so your app is secure from the very first visit. Don't have a domain yet? We're happy to register one for you. We're an accredited Norid registrar.

Same basic flow: connect Git, push, live. The difference is that your app runs on Nordic servers with data inside the EEA, that a managed database and daily backups are included in a fixed price – and that you get Norwegian support.
