DollarDeploy AI: Deploy to Your Own Servers with our AI agent

Announcing our AI agent + MCP support so you can deploy to your own servers just by chatting.

Ruslan Gainutdinov

Message from Ruslan, CEO & Founder:
A couple of years ago I shared the story of my unexpected $4.5k AWS bill (HN thread). That bill is the reason DollarDeploy exists. I strongly believe 95% of web apps do not need complicated AWS architecture: a single Hetzner or DigitalOcean box can run them just fine if you remove the deployment friction.

What is DollarDeploy?

DollarDeploy is a hosted control plane that builds and deploys your apps to your servers. You connect a host (or provision one through our UI/API/AI), add your GitHub repo, and we handle build, deploy, SSL, backups, and logs. Apps run as isolated systemd services so they behave like normal Linux processes with minimal overhead. Managed services such as PostgreSQL, Redis, MongoDB, and MariaDB are one click away.

  • Supported stacks: Next.js, React, Go, Rust, Python, PHP, Docker Compose, background workers, etc.
  • Bring your own servers: Hetzner, DigitalOcean, Verda Cloud, or anything with SSH.
  • Pricing: from $5/month for the control plane + the cost of your VPS. Free 14-day trial.

Launching today: DollarDeploy AI

We just shipped an AI agent that can build, deploy, and troubleshoot apps through natural language. You can paste a GitHub URL or just say “deploy atlas-api to staging” and it will plan the steps, run commands over SSH, and wait for your confirmation on destructive actions.

  • Chat interface: dollardeploy.com/chat lets you provision hosts, deploy apps, inspect logs, or scale services just by talking to the agent.
  • MCP support: We expose a Model Context Protocol server (setup guide) so Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, or any MCP-compatible IDE can call real infrastructure commands safely.
  • Built-in templates: Launch GPT-OSS, DeepSeek, n8n, Metabase, Ghost, and other OSS apps with one click and then manage them with AI.

How it compares

DollarDeploy sits between “fully managed platforms” (Heroku/Vercel/Railway) and “roll your own” (Dokploy/Coolify/self-hosted). We deliberately do not offer a self-hosted control plane, because the goal is to give solo devs and lean teams a turnkey experience: connect a repo, pick a server, and ship. You retain ownership of the servers, data, and runtime without having to babysit CI/CD infrastructure.
