A Railway alternative on your own Hetzner server
If you like deploying from Git but want the server in your own cloud account, CloudHostAI deploys to a Hetzner server you own.
- Your app runs on a server in your Hetzner account.
- You pay a platform fee plus Hetzner’s server price.
- You can keep the server if you stop using the platform.
How CloudHostAI works
CloudHostAI deploys Git repositories to a server in your own Hetzner account. You connect a Hetzner API token. It provisions the server (default location Falkenstein, Germany, which you can change) and runs your app in Docker behind Caddy. Caddy issues a Let’s Encrypt certificate when you point a custom domain at the server. The platform fee is Free, Indie $19, Startup $39 or Team $99 per month. Hetzner bills the server to you separately (current plans, checked 2026-10-27).
