Pricing
Hosting (AWS) pricing
An honest monthly number for running your app: estimated before you commit, measured after, priced near cost.
An estimate before you commit
Before your app goes live you choose how it runs: one of three architectures, suggested from two questions about your app. The table below is what each one costs to run a month, split into the servers your app runs on, its database, and everything else. Estimates are conservative by policy; the number you see first should be the number your invoice comes in under.
Traffic bands, not fake precision
You describe expected traffic in plain language (a few users a day, steady daily use, or a busy public app) and get a price bracket for that band. Nobody can predict a cloud bill to the cent, so we give you a range you can trust instead of a decimal you can’t.
Measured per project, per environment
Every resource we provision is tagged to your project, so real hosting cost is tracked daily and shown on your dashboard: month to date with a trend, per environment (Build, Rehearsal, and Live Server), next to your AI spend. If spend jumps well above your recent average, we notify you. You hear about it from us, not from an invoice.
The trust anchor
Hosting sits near cost, deliberately. It’s the predictable, transparent part of the bill; the platform’s margin lives in AI points and expert pricing, not in marking up your infrastructure.
Hosting costs by option
Every project runs on one of three architectures, chosen in the app from two questions about your app. This is what each costs to run a month, split the way your costs page splits it: the servers your app runs on, its database, and everything else.
| Per month | Essential A Live Server (on-demand) on a managed shared database. | Balanced A Live Server (on-demand) on a managed shared database, and a Rehearsal Server started when you need it. | Dedicated A Live Server (always-on) on a database server of its own, and a Rehearsal Server always on. |
|---|---|---|---|
| Servers Running your app | $0.02–$0.06 | $0.03–$0.07 | $41 |
| Database Keeping your data | $2 | $2 | $33 |
| Everything else Delivery, files, email, security, monitoring | $0.19–$0.78 | $0.33–$0.91 | $13–$24 |
| Total | $2–$3 | $2–$3 of which Rehearsal $0.50–$0.72 | $88–$98 of which Rehearsal $17 |
In US dollars, at a few users a day, from AWS list prices of 11 September 2026. No free tier is counted. The Build Server, where your app runs while you work on it, is separate: the first 50 hours are free, then €1 an hour.
Estimates and measured costs are shown live in the app; hosting draws down the same wallet as everything else.
Prices exclude VAT. VAT is added at checkout where it applies: 21% in the Netherlands, none for EU businesses with a VAT ID (reverse charge), and none outside the EU.
