We make deploying
open-source apps
ridiculously simple.

Deploying software shouldn't require DevOps expertise. howtodeploy bridges the gap between powerful open-source tools and the people who want to use them.

How it works

01

Connect your cloud

Add an API key for DigitalOcean, Hetzner, Vultr, Linode, or AWS. One-time setup, takes 30 seconds.

02

Pick an app

Browse the catalog — AI agents, CMS platforms, e-commerce, docs sites. Click the one you want.

03

Click deploy

Fill in a few fields, hit Deploy. We provision the server, install everything, and hand you a live URL.

What we believe

Simplicity First

Every screen has one clear action. Smart defaults mean you can deploy without changing a single setting.

Your Cloud, Your Data

Bring your own API key. All infrastructure lives in your cloud account — we never touch your data.

Open Source

We believe in open-source software. Every app in our catalog is free, transparent, and community-driven.

Security by Default

API keys encrypted at rest, ephemeral SSH keys, secrets never logged. Security isn't an add-on — it's the foundation.
