About
Light Cloud is a hosting platform organized around folders rather than separate dashboards: each folder bundles a project's frontend, backend container, database, environment variables, and a preview URL per branch. It deploys static sites to a global CDN and containers to a scale-to-zero runtime, provisions managed Postgres alongside them, builds automatically on every push or pull request, and ships an MCP server so tools like Claude Code or GitHub Copilot can trigger a deploy from a chat command.
At a glance
Light Cloud hosts a web app’s frontend, backend and PostgreSQL together. It is worth evaluating if you want to deploy a prototype from a repository without setting up each service separately.
Good fit
Developers with a small web app who want a managed deployment and a database in one place.
Consider something else when
Use your own infrastructure if you need control over the deployment region, networking or operational policies beyond what the hosted plan offers.
Start here
Deploy a disposable repo with one endpoint and a test database. Check logs, environment variables and redeployment behavior before connecting real data.
Cost and requirements
The vendor advertises a free tier and paid plans starting at USD $5 per month. Check app and resource limits for the stack you need.
Limits to know
You still own app authorization and migration planning. Review backup, export and access options before keeping the only copy of your data on the platform.
