The console, in sixty seconds.
Create an app from a repo, organise it in folders, deploy, add a domain, read the logs, watch the metrics and see the bill. The tour below is the real console, drawn.
Deploy your first app today
Push a repo, upload a folder, or ask your assistant. Free for unlimited sites and three apps, no card.
Pricing
Unlimited sites. Three apps. $0.
Free includes $1 of usage a month with no card. A typical site uses about a cent of it; if you ever use it all, server apps pause and your sites stay up.
Add what you run. Watch it stay free.
Unlimited on every plan.

Each line assumes
Static site: 1 deploy a month (the measured median), a 1-minute build at $0.01 a minute. Bandwidth included up to 20 GB a month per workspace on Free, 1 TB on paid plans.
Preview URL: 2 builds a month, 1 minute each.
Server app: 2 deploys a month (2-minute builds). Scale to zero is billed only while serving: 200 ms a request on Micro at $0.12 an hour, quiet traffic only. Steady and busy traffic keep an instance running all day, so they are priced always on. Always on runs one Micro instance all month at $52, Starter and up.
Database: Shared Postgres or MySQL, $4 a month each.

Never billed. At $1 of usage, server apps pause; sites stay up.
Create
Pick a repo. The framework is detected.
Connect GitHub, GitLab or Bitbucket, or upload a folder. Light Cloud reads the code, names the framework and the build, and asks nothing else. One click to deploy.

Deploy
Every push goes live. Every deploy can roll back.
After the first deploy, a push to the branch builds and ships on its own, with the commit, the author and the build time kept for each one. Rollback is a click.

Database
Postgres next to the app, with a data explorer.
Create a database in the same project, get the connection string wired into the app, and browse tables or run a query without leaving the console.

Credentials wired
Frontend, backend, and a database in one place.
Static sites go to a global CDN. Containers scale to zero when idle. Postgres sits right next to them, provisioned from the same project.
- Static and containers
- Ship a static site to the CDN or a container that scales to zero. Light Cloud reads your repo and picks the target.
- Managed Postgres
- Provision a database with a tier, region, and storage size. Credentials are encrypted and wired to your app.
- A preview per branch
- Every branch and pull request gets its own URL, built on push and removed when the branch is gone.
- Scale to zero
- Idle containers stop billing. You pay for the time your app actually runs.
Deploy with AI
Deploy from Claude Code. One command to install.
Then ask "Deploy this project to Light Cloud." Claude signs you up if you have no account, asks two questions, and hands back a live URL. The same MCP server works in GitHub Copilot and Claude Desktop; the CLI does it from a shell.
