00 / HAKOPOD CLOUD · BETA

Heroku-style deploys
on your own server.

Hakopod Cloud is Hakopod with the platform run for you: we host the dashboard and control plane, and your apps run on a Linux server you connect with one command. You get Git deploys, HTTPS on your domains and private networking, without installing or upgrading the platform yourself.

SIGNUP IS OPEN

How do I start
with Hakopod Cloud?

Create an account, click Connect a server and run the command it gives you on a fresh Ubuntu or Debian server. Once the worker enrolls, connect a repository or pick a template, review the plan and deploy.

01 / WHO IT'S FOROWN THE SERVER, SKIP THE OPS

Who is
Hakopod Cloud for?

Hakopod Cloud is for builders who want a VPS bill and a platform-team workflow. You keep the server and everything on it; we keep the dashboard, the API and the control plane running.

INDIE HACKERS

Ship on the server you already pay for.

Connect the VPS you rent today, push to GitHub and get HTTPS on your own domain. No YAML, no kubectl, and no evenings spent keeping a platform alive.

AI BUILDERS

Give the prototype a real address.

Move the app your agent wrote onto a real server with a domain, a database and logs. Run hakopod mcp in Claude Code or Cursor so the agent can read deploy events and logs, and deploy reviewed plans when you allow it.

SMALL TEAMS

One workspace for the whole team.

Invite teammates, keep each project's services together and review every change as a plan before it applies. Team at launch covers three servers and unlimited members.

02 / WHAT YOU GETTHE PLATFORM, ALREADY RUNNING
INCLUDED IN EVERY CLOUD WORKSPACE

What does
Hakopod Cloud include?

Everything between git push and a live HTTPS app, with Kubernetes underneath and buttons on top.

01

No control plane to run.

We host the dashboard, API and control plane, back them up and keep them current. Your server runs a worker and your apps, nothing else.

How Cloud splits the work
02

Connect a server with one command.

Click Connect a server, paste the generated command into your server's SSH session and watch it enroll. The worker calls home over authenticated HTTPS, so there's no second dashboard and no API key to copy.

Connect your first server
03

Deploy from GitHub or GitLab.

Builds run in your own GitHub Actions or GitLab CI with a Dockerfile, Cloud Native Buildpacks or framework detection for Next.js, Astro, SvelteKit, Vite and Node. Every change is a plan you review, and rollback goes to any earlier successful release.

Follow a deployment
04

HTTPS on your own domains.

Add a domain, verify it and Hakopod requests a Let's Encrypt certificate through cert-manager. Prefer your own certificate? Upload it instead.

Set up a domain
05

Private networking by default.

Services reach each other over a private network, and only the ones you mark public get an address. Deny-by-default network policies keep the rest of your app off the internet.

06

Dashboard, CLI and MCP.

Click through the dashboard, script it with the hakopod CLI, or run hakopod mcp over stdio for any MCP client. Agent keys are scoped to one project and environment, expire and can be revoked.

Put an agent to work
MANAGED DATABASES / ELIGIBLE WORKSPACES

Does Hakopod Cloud
include managed databases?

Yes. Eligible Cloud workspaces can create managed PostgreSQL and Redis, each with its own compute, storage and credentials, reachable only from your apps.

  • PostgreSQL 17 or 18 with PgBouncer, replicas and switchover
  • Redis 8
  • Encrypted backups to any S3-compatible store, read back to verify
  • Restore into a separate copy, inspect it, then switch your app
Explore managed databases
MORE ENGINES ON SELF-HOSTED

Need MongoDB, MySQL
or ClickHouse?

Run self-hosted Hakopod. It adds MongoDB 8.0, MySQL 8.4, ClickHouse 26.3, Vitess, Oracle Database Free and DuckDB through MyDuck, for eight engines that are all private by default.

Database changes go through capacity checks, and consequential ones need an approval. Creating an account does not guarantee compute or database allocation.

WHEN YOUR APP GETS BUSIER

How do I scale
a service on Hakopod?

Scale each service on its own: give it more CPU and memory, run more replicas, or let CPU autoscaling add copies up to 20 as load climbs. Per-app quotas keep one app from taking the whole server.

Explore resource settings

More room for a service

Pick a size profile, or set exact CPU and memory requests and limits for the workload that needs them.

More copies for the load

Set a fixed replica count, or turn on CPU autoscaling and let it run up to 20 replicas within the limits you choose.

More services for your idea

Add a worker, a private API, a cron job or a database. Each one keeps its own resources and connections alongside the rest of your app.

Which workloads can autoscale?

CPU autoscaling works for stateless services. Services with persistent volumes or GPUs, and serverless functions, keep a fixed count, and a service with a volume runs one replica. Every replica needs room on your servers. Managed databases scale through their own replica settings.

04 / BOUNDARIESWHAT CLOUD COVERS
WEB APPS, APIS AND WORKERS

What can I run
on Hakopod Cloud?

Web apps, APIs, workers, cron jobs and private services, deployed from Git or a container image and served over HTTP and HTTPS on your domains.

No arbitrary public TCP listeners. Public SMTP, SFTP and custom protocols need an operator-provisioned port, which is a self-hosted feature. The HTTP MCP endpoint is self-hosted too; on Cloud, agents connect through hakopod mcp over stdio.

Where Hakopod Cloud stops
BRING YOUR OWN SERVER

What does bringing
your own server mean?

Your apps and their data run on a Linux server you rent or own, and Hakopod Cloud runs the control plane that tells it what to run. The server, its bill and its capacity stay yours.

  • Fresh Ubuntu 24.04/26.04 or Debian 12/13
  • At least 1 GiB RAM and 10 GiB free disk, plus room for your apps
  • Ports 80 and 443 open to the internet
  • A private connect command that expires after ten minutes

WHERE THINGS STAND

Is Hakopod Cloud
ready to use?

Hakopod Cloud is in beta. Signup is open, and eligible workspaces can connect a server and deploy today. Paid checkout is not open yet, so the prices above are planned launch prices. Team features marked planned are still being built, and we haven't announced a launch date or service guarantees.

Rather run every piece yourself? Self-hosted Hakopod is free, Apache-2.0 licensed and installs with one command on your own Ubuntu or Debian server.
