Questions

PromptShip is built for agents running your app. Each agent gets its own scoped identity, production changes wait for your approval, and every action is recorded under its name.

No. PromptShip is a deployment platform. Tools like PromptLayer manage LLM prompts; PromptShip runs the apps you build with AI IDEs, backends, databases, custom domains.

No. PromptShip operates its own platform, build pipeline, runtime, and managed databases. We're not a layer above Cloud Run, Vercel, or Render. Like every PaaS, the platform itself runs on managed cloud infrastructure underneath (DigitalOcean today), but that's IaaS, the same way Vercel runs on AWS. If you ever leave, your Docker image runs anywhere Docker runs.

Replit and Bolt are AI app builders that include hosting. PromptShip is the infrastructure AI IDEs deploy to. Different category, different comparison set: Cloud Run, Fly, Railway, Vercel, not Replit, Bolt, v0.

Yes. Keep the frontend on Vercel and move one service when you want a persistent runtime, managed database resources, or PromptShip's agent identity and production approval workflow. You can bring the frontend over later because PromptShip runs Next.js SSR and static sites too. Step-by-step at /migrate/vercel.

Add the PromptShip MCP server to your AI IDE with one command, connect your GitHub repo, and deploy, all from a single conversation. PromptShip builds a Docker image, provisions your database, sets up SSL, and gives you a live URL.

Yes. Every app can attach managed PostgreSQL, a Redis-compatible cache, and ClickHouse for analytics. More databases on the roadmap. Provisioned via MCP, no third-party setup, no separate billing.

PromptShip runs persistent containers, not request-scoped functions. WebSockets, Server-Sent Events, background workers, and cron jobs all work with no special configuration and no timeouts.

Always-on when latency matters. Scale-to-zero when cost matters. The public URL stays live, and a sleeping app wakes on the next request. Rolling out in open beta.

No. Agent-initiated production writes wait for your approval. The requesting agent and the human approver remain attributable in the action trail.

Yes. Clone a running environment together with its database in one call. Agents build and verify against real data in an isolated copy that carries a TTL and is cleaned up automatically. Rolling out in open beta.

Promotion moves the exact tested build to production and is rolling out in open beta. Rollback redeploys the previous image without a rebuild and is available now.

Deploys, databases, domains, agent tokens, approvals, the ledger, and rollback are live. Clone-with-data and tested-build promotion are open beta.

Every action on PromptShip is taken by an identified agent bearing its own token. 'Show me everything this agent did' is a one-call answer via the action ledger over MCP, and the dashboard's Activity view shows the same ledger grouped by agent and task.

You pay for the resources you run, prorated to five minutes, plus a plan. Free includes $25 of usage a month, Hobby is $5 a month with $5 of usage included, and Pro is $20 a month with usage billed on top. No per-request fees. Full rates at /pricing.

We're scaling onboarding gradually. Approved requests get access as capacity opens. If you've already added the MCP to your IDE, your account is automatically queued, no separate signup needed.
