Light Cloud

{"name": "Light Cloud", "tagline": "Deploy web apps from GitHub, GitLab or Bitbucket in seconds", "description": "Light Cloud is a deployment and hosting platform that turns a push to GitHub, GitLab or Bitbucket into a live URL. It hosts static sites on a global CDN, containers on Cloud Run with scale-to-zero, and managed Postgres databases provisioned from the same project. Every branch and pull request gets its own preview URL, and deploys can also be triggered conversationally from Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, or Claude Desktop via an MCP server.", "url": "https://www.light-cloud.com/", "category": "Cloud Hosting / Deployment Platform", "pricing_summary": "A single plan price per month that includes an equal amount of usage across six meters (compute, databases, storage, bandwidth, build minutes, team members). Extra usage is billed on the next invoice at the same rates. Hobby is free with $5 of included usage; paid plans run $5 to $149 per month. Idle containers scale to zero and bill nothing.", "open_source": false, "key_features": ["Git-based deploys: connect a repo once and every push starts a build automatically, with no YAML and no runners to maintain", "Automatic target detection: reads the repo and picks the builder, deploying static bundles to a global CDN or containers to Cloud Run", "Managed Postgres with tier, region, and storage size chosen at provisioning; credentials encrypted and wired to your app", "A preview URL for every branch and pull request, built on push and removed when the branch is deleted", "Scale to zero: idle container apps drop to zero instances, stop billing, and wake on the next request", "Deploy with AI via an MCP server for Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, and Claude Desktop, plus a CLI; Claude can sign you up, ask two questions, and return a live URL", "Deploy history with commit, author, and logs kept with each revision", "Usage-based billing with a live console showing per-app spend, alerts at 80% and 100% of included usage, and nothing pauses on paid plans"], "pros": ["Full stack in one place: static frontend, backend container, and managed Postgres provisioned from the same project with credentials wired automatically", "Scale-to-zero makes idle apps and preview environments genuinely free while they sit unused", "Simple single-meter pricing: everything you run counts against one included usage amount at the same rates on every plan", "Preview environments per branch are built in, not an add-on", "AI-assisted deploys
