I've been working on Out Plane for about 3 months. It's a PaaS that does one thing: gets your code to production as fast as possible, and charges you only for the seconds it actually runs.

The problem I kept hitting: I'd finish a side project, then spend hours on Dockerfiles, nginx reverse proxies, SSL certs, CI/CD pipelines. The deploy took longer than building the app.

How it works: - Connect GitHub repo - We auto-detect your stack or you can use Dockerfile (Node, Python, Go, Ruby, etc.) — no Dockerfile needed - Deploy in ~60 seconds - Built-in monitoring (metrics, logs) - Managed PostgreSQL & Redis provisioned in seconds - Scale to zero when idle (side project not getting traffic = $0) - Per-second billing — not per hour, not monthly. Seconds.

What's different from Railway/Render/Fly.io: mostly the pricing model. I deployed the same Next.js+Postgres app on 6 platforms — Outplane was $2.40/mo vs $12-47/mo on others.

Where it's still rough: docs need work, CLI tool isn't out yet, community is small (about 100 users). I'm a solo founder so things move at human speed.

$20 free credit to try, no credit card. Would appreciate honest feedback — especially if something breaks or confuses you.

Happy to answer any technical questions about the architecture.
