Render runs your TanStack Start server, Postgres, Key Value store, cron jobs, and background workers on one intuitive cloud. Push to Git and Render builds, deploys, and scales the Node service for you.
"Render has enabled us to deliver AI features much faster with a very lean engineering team." - Maor Shlomo, Founder of Base44
No credit card required. Free compute plans cover web services, Postgres, and Key Value.
Render keeps the whole application, not just the frontend, on one platform. Here's what makes it the right fit for TanStack developers.
TanStack Start builds a Node server through Nitro. Render runs it as a standard web service with the render-com preset.
Single-service previews are included on every plan. Pro and above add full-stack previews of your whole architecture.
Run fully managed Postgres with point-in-time recovery, plus Redis-compatible Key Value, in the same workspace as your app.
Services reach each other over a private network with no VPC to configure. WebSockets and managed TLS are handled for you.
Merges ship without dropping traffic, and you can roll back instantly to a retained build when a deploy goes wrong.
Horizontal autoscaling on Pro and above keeps services responsive through launch days and traffic spikes.
Describe your whole architecture in one render.yaml and version it with your app. The TanStack CLI writes the first one.
Every service gets a firewall and automatic DDoS mitigation. SOC 2 Type II, ISO 27001, and a GDPR DPA cover all plans.
The TanStack CLI adds the Nitro setup, the Node start script, and a render.yaml Blueprint while it creates your app.
npx @tanstack/cli@latest create my-tanstack-app --deployment rendercd my-tanstack-appgit add render.yaml && git commit -m "Add Render Blueprint"git push origin mainDashboard > New > BlueprintFollow the TanStack Start hosting guide to install Nitro, configure Vite, add the Node start script, and commit the render.yaml Blueprint Render reads.
Render charges a flat workspace plan plus compute for each service, prorated to the second. Free compute plans cover web services, Postgres, and Key Value while you are still building.
Real teams, real migrations. These are quotes from engineers who moved their production workloads onto Render.
"It's been refreshing. We're saving money, shipping faster, and actually enjoying the way we work."
"There are fewer knobs to turn, and fewer things you're expected to be aware of."
"Render has enabled us to deliver AI features much faster with a very lean engineering team."
Common questions from TanStack developers evaluating Render.
Yes. TanStack Start builds a Node server through Nitro, and Render runs it as a web service. Create a Render-ready app with the TanStack CLI, or add the Nitro setup from the Start hosting guide to an existing app.
Yes. Render Postgres and Render Key Value run in the same workspace as your app and reach it over automatic private networking, with no VPC to configure. Paid Postgres instances include point-in-time recovery.
Render bills three things: a flat workspace plan, compute for each service prorated to the second, and metered usage such as bandwidth. Hobby workspaces are $0/month plus compute, and free compute plans are available while you build.
Render runs the whole backend rather than the frontend alone: web services, private services, background workers, cron jobs, durable workflows, Postgres, and Key Value in one workspace. Compute is a fixed instance size prorated by the second, so the bill stays predictable as traffic grows.
Yes. Every plan includes single-service previews for pull requests. Pro workspaces and above add full-stack preview environments that spin up your entire architecture for each change.
Yes. If your app builds to a Node server or ships a Dockerfile, Render deploys it from GitHub, GitLab, or Bitbucket. Add a render.yaml Blueprint to describe the service, and set NITRO_PRESET to render-com so Nitro builds the output Render runs.
No credit card required to start. Free compute plans cover web services, Postgres, and Key Value while you build.
