DeployOS Helps Solo Entrepreneurs Deploy & Manage Multiple Apps On Any VPS

No. You paste your server's IP address and SSH key once - DeployOS installs Docker, configures the firewall and HTTPS routing, and from then on you deploy from a visual app. There's a Simple mode that hides the infrastructure entirely, and an Advanced mode with every dial when you want it.

Shared hosting rents you a slice of someone else's server and caps what you can run - usually one site, PHP only, hard CPU and RAM limits. A VPS is a full server that's entirely yours, but managing one yourself usually means learning Docker, Nginx and Linux first. DeployOS is that missing piece: it turns a bare $5 VPS into something as easy to run as a hosting panel, except there's no per-site cap - host as many apps, databases and background jobs as the hardware can hold, for one price instead of one bill per site.

If you're already comfortable maintaining playbooks or Nix configs across a fleet of servers, those tools are genuinely great and DeployOS isn't trying to replace them - they're built for infrastructure-as-code at scale. DeployOS is for the much more common case: deploying a handful of apps without writing or maintaining a playbook for each one. It's push-button where Ansible is code-first - less powerful for managing a large fleet, much faster for a side project, a client site, or a small business's handful of apps.

Any VPS provider works: Hetzner (from ~€4/mo), DigitalOcean, Vultr, Contabo, Linode, OVH, AWS, Hostinger - if you can SSH into it, DeployOS can run it. Create the cheapest Ubuntu server they offer, paste its IP into DeployOS, and it handles the rest.

Really. Your license works forever, and includes a year of app updates. After that year the app keeps working exactly as it is - you only renew (at 50% off) if you want to keep receiving new versions. There is no subscription and nothing hosted by us to pay for.

DeployOS is built for exactly that moment: it detects the app isn't answering, hunts for the right port automatically, surfaces the app's own crash logs in the deploy output, and the Doctor pinpoints DNS/proxy/network issues in one click. The last three builds stay cached on your server for instant rollback.

In your operating system's keychain, on your machine. DeployOS has no backend - your credentials are never uploaded anywhere, because there is nowhere to upload them to. The app talks straight to your server over SSH.

No. DeployOS scans what's already there and adopts it non-destructively - existing containers keep running and get imported into the dashboard. If another proxy already owns port 443, DeployOS steps back and tells you instead of clobbering it.

macOS (Apple Silicon and Intel, one universal build) and Windows 10/11 (64-bit) - both downloadable today, and one license covers either. Linux is next on the roadmap; join the newsletter below to hear the moment it ships.

Yes - that warning appears because our Windows installer isn't yet signed by a public certificate authority (the macOS build is fully notarized by Apple; the Windows CA certificate is in progress). The installer is built from the same code, served only over HTTPS from this site, and we publish its SHA-256 checksum on the download page so you can verify the file yourself.

Every paid plan has a 14-day money-back guarantee, no questions asked. And the Free plan is a real license - one server, real deploys - so you can prove it works on your VPS before paying anything.
