Live in ~90s

We boot a Vultr VPS, point DNS, run our ansible playbook, install your code, request the SSL cert. Total: 60-120 seconds.

What's under the hood (we don't hide this):
  • Vultr for compute — same provider that runs Free.ai's GPUs.
  • Let's Encrypt for SSL — auto-renewed by certbot.
  • VPS.org manages the app.free.ai DNS zone.
  • Open ansible playbooks — read them in our repo if you want to know exactly what we install.
  • You get root SSH — change anything you want once it's live.

Frequently asked questions

A real Vultr VPS — root SSH, your own IP, 25-80 GB SSD, dual-stack IPv4 + IPv6 — with nginx, Let's Encrypt SSL, and your app's runtime (Node, Python, etc.) pre-installed by our ansible playbook. Boots in ~90 seconds.

Static sites, Next.js, React/Vite SPAs, Node.js APIs, Django (with Postgres), or FastAPI. Each has its own playbook — no Docker required.

<your-slug>.app.free.ai by default — Pro tier lets you point your own domain.

Yes. Certbot runs the HTTP-01 challenge during provisioning, and the cert auto-renews via the standard certbot timer. We don't proxy or terminate SSL — your VPS owns it.

Yes — you get root SSH on the box. We install our own deploy key during provisioning so we can run upgrades, but you can add your own keys (or remove ours) anytime.

It bounces you to the deployments dashboard with the current Coder session attached. We zip your workspace, transfer it to the new VPS, and run the post-install step (npm install + build, pip install, etc) on first boot.

Hit the re-sync icon next to the deployment. We pull the latest from your linked Coder session and reinstall — no need to destroy and re-provision.

Monthly. We charge your card on file for the first month at provision time, then bill the same amount every 30 days using the same Stripe customer that powers your Free.ai subscription.

Click the trash icon — VPS is destroyed and DNS is removed immediately. We don't refund partial months, but the box runs through the end of the period you've already paid for.

5-day grace period — we email you, the dashboard shows a warning. After grace expires we destroy the VPS automatically so you don't keep getting charged for a box you can't reach.

Pro tier only. Point your domain's A and AAAA records at the VPS, then click the globe icon and paste your domain. We add it to the existing nginx vhost and run certbot --expand so one cert covers both names.

We resell Vultr — same provider that powers Free.ai's GPUs and inference servers. We add the orchestration (provision + DNS + ansible + SSL) and a flat monthly markup. No surprises.
