Your VPS. Your apps. Your infrastructure.
Deploy 250+ apps without another monthly platform bill.
Docker • HTTPS • Backups • Monitoring • MCP
👇 DeployOS
I got tired of paying monthly fees just to deploy software I could run on my own VPS.
So I built DeployOS.
→ Connect your VPS
→ Deploy 185+ open-source apps
→ HTTPS automatically
→ Databases & backups
→ Monitoring & diagnostics
→ MCP for AI-assisted server management
Your VPS. Your platform. Your AI.
Try it: https://t.co/2KqrrOHz99
Most “let the AI manage my server” setups are just handing it SSH and hoping it behaves.
That’s not governance. That’s access.
DeployOS gives your AI MCP access to your VPS — deploy, read logs, run diagnostics, check the database, roll back a bad release — without giving it the whole machine.
26 scoped tools. Keys stay in your OS keychain. No agent on the server. No exposed DB ports. The AI talks to DeployOS, not raw root.
That’s the difference: the model can operate your stack, but only through the doors you opened.

@maskaravivek Hey Vivek, Vercel Pro cost pain across 10 projects and the move to Cloudflare/Amplify. DeployOS consolidates everything on one VPS as a private PaaS (GitHub deploys, DBs, monitoring). Simpler than splitting providers. Worth a look?
Yeah, that’s exactly the gap I’m trying to solve with DeployOS.
Vercel is great until agent-generated builds start eating your build minutes.
Coolify makes the economics better, but then you inherit another thing to maintain.
DeployOS lets you use your own VPS without turning yourself into the person responsible for babysitting the infrastructure GitHub deploys, HTTPS, databases, backups, monitoring, etc.
If you’re open to it, I’d love to give you a 10-minute demo and let you try it with one of your apps. No commitment you can see if it actually removes the maintenance pain before considering it.
@lukcombinator@Anas_founder Hey Lukas congrats on ditching Vercel for VPS once traffic made it expensive. DeployOS turns any VPS into a private PaaS (GitHub deploys, HTTPS, DBs, monitoring, 236+ templates). Keeps costs low without the management headache. do you want to have a Quick look?
@StefanRows@Hetzner_Online Hey Stefan i see you’re migrating ProofSwap off Vercel + Supabase to Hetzner for independence. DeployOS turns that VPS into a private PaaS with GitHub deploys, HTTPS, DBs, backups & monitoring in minutes. No more DevOps grind. Happy to show a quick demo if useful?
That’s exactly the kind of thing DeployOS is built to make less painful 😂
You spend hours building the product, buy the domain, write the first post… and then infrastructure becomes the thing standing between you and “Ship it.”
With DeployOS, you can connect your domain to your own VPS, deploy the app, and handle HTTPS without turning deployment into another project.
Build → deploy → connect domain → ship.
If you’ve got the microblog ready, I’d be happy to help you get it running on DeployOS.
😂 Congrats — you’ve officially reached the “it works on my machine” stage.
But seriously, this is exactly why I built DeployOS.
You shouldn’t have to spend hours figuring out Nginx, Docker, SSL, ports and server configuration just to get your app online.
DeployOS takes an existing VPS and handles the deployment/infrastructure side for you.
Build with Claude → DeployOS → live.
If you want, I’ll help you get this app running on DeployOS. 🚀
This is exactly the problem I built DeployOS to solve.
Claude can build the site, but the moment you need to get it onto a VPS, connect the domain, enable HTTPS, configure the database and deploy updates, things suddenly get complicated.
With DeployOS, you can take an existing VPS and turn it into your own private Heroku — without having to figure out all the infrastructure manually.
Would love to have you try it on the next client project. I think this is exactly the kind of workflow it was made for.
@Jerlewat preview works but post-deploy grok key error is classic env hell after vibe-coding — free real license of deployos (no card) ships an mcp server so you can deploy/roll back/fix from the same chat window you already use. paste ip, pick repo, done. still stuck on that key?
@KingDDev@ForwardEditor@vercel This is exactly why I’m building DeployOS.
If your app is already cheap to run, you shouldn’t need to pay a platform tax just to keep it online.
$79 once → your VPS → deploy and manage it yourself.
The infrastructure should belong to you, not your billing tier. 👀
That’s exactly the problem with usage-based hosting: one overlooked setting can turn a predictable bill into a surprise.
This is why I built DeployOS — $79 once, deploy to a VPS you already own, and keep control of the infrastructure.
No $32/mo platform tax just to run your app.
@arthurliebhardt That’s exactly where I think this gets interesting. 👀
If Claude/Codex/ChatGPT can already control Coolify through MCP, the next question is: why are we still clicking around dashboards to manage infrastructure at all?
That’s the direction I’m taking with DeployOS.
@skywalkerr0x Looking for honest VPS recs is smart. Once you pick one, DeployOS is what a lot of us use to skip the 47-step setup: Docker, HTTPS, backups, monitoring + MCP so you can deploy straight from the IDE/chat. Works on basically any provider. Happy to share details if helpful.
I just deployed an entire app by talking to my IDE. No terminal. No YAML. No 47-step docs.
MCP (Model Context Protocol) + deployOS = deploy from chat. One prompt, live URL. This is what coding in 2026 actually looks like.
If you're still copy-pasting SSH commands, you're doing it the hard way.
Save this before your manager sees it 🤫

This is the exact trade-off a lot of people hit. Cheap VPS is great until the 3 a.m. Postgres/compose issue or a provider outage. The setups that seem to win right now keep the low VPS cost but add a control plane that gives you one-click deploys, automatic HTTPS/backups/monitoring, and multi-provider failover so you’re not the only line of defense. Ops time drops dramatically while you still own the iron. Curious what your current mitigation looks like?
Coolify is excellent for owning the stack — push-to-deploy, databases, SSL, the works. One thing teams add on top when they want extra resilience is multi-provider failover (different VPS providers + automatic health checks) so a single DC cooling event doesn’t take the whole thing offline. Pairing that with native MCP so Claude can help manage the infrastructure has been a nice quality-of-life upgrade for some of us. Curious how you’re handling multi-server or failover today?
Totally get it after a multi-hour cooling-related outage. The pattern I’m seeing work well is keeping the domains where they are but moving the actual apps/hosting to your own VPS(s) with built-in multi-provider failover. You still get one-click deploys, automatic HTTPS, backups and monitoring, but no single data-center event can take everything down. If you’re evaluating options, happy to outline a low-risk migration approach.
Cloudflare is the right first layer — DNS failover + proxy saves a ton of pain. The next step a lot of agencies are taking is multi-provider VPS (e.g. Hetzner + another region) so even if one DC has a cooling event the apps stay up. Automatic health-check failover + one-click Docker deploys make the ops side almost invisible. Happy to share how some teams are structuring that if useful.
