DIY on AWS/GCP
strackt

Laravel Cloud, Vercel, Railway
Great experience. Their infrastructure. Usage-based pricing.
The Four Promises
Everything a managed platform promises. Nothing it takes away.
Convenience
Push a commit. That's the whole workflow.
We read your repository and detect the stack — no forms to fill in. From then on, pushing is the deploy: we build it, inject your secrets, run your migrations, and cut over with zero downtime. Every pull request gets a real environment of its own, URL and database included, torn down when you close it.
Confidence
Ship on Friday. There's always a way back.
Every release is one click from rollback, and every change to your server leaves a checkpoint you can return to in seconds. Rebuild the whole thing from blueprint in minutes. Security patches arrive in a maintenance window you pick, in your timezone.
Freedom
Your infrastructure, your choice.
Any VPS provider. Any region. Your data stays where you put it. Configuration travels with you as code. SSH in anytime. Leave anytime.

Cost
Flat-rate. Predictable. No surprises.
No usage-based billing. No compute surcharges. No bandwidth overages. Pick your own VPS, pay a flat per-application rate. Know exactly what you'll pay.
How It Works
From your repo to running.
Connect your repo
Point at your Git repository. We detect your stack automatically — framework, runtime version, database, cache, queue workers, scheduler. No forms to fill out.
Connect your server
Any VPS, any provider, any region — your data stays where you put it. No server yet? Start on Layover, a temporary strackt-managed server, while you set yours up.
We handle the rest
Push to deploy, zero-downtime — and a real environment for every pull request. Then it's ours: security patches, updates, and recovery, applied continuously, with a checkpoint before every change.
The boundary
strackt deploys code you write.
If what you want is to self-host packaged software — Nextcloud, Immich, Vaultwarden — strackt is the wrong tool, and Coolify is a good one. Here's the honest reason why.
The difference is what actually gets deployed. strackt builds your application from its repository: you push a commit, we build it, run your migrations, and release it. Packaged software works the other way round — the maintainer publishes a finished release archive, and a plain git clone of it often won't even run. Firefly III is a good example, and it is a Laravel app: its compiled assets exist only inside its releases, so pointing strackt at its repository gets you nowhere.
Doing that job properly means deploying artifacts instead of building source, and tracking upstream releases instead of your commits. That is a different product, and Coolify already does it well. We would rather send you there than cost you an afternoon finding out.
