Shpyrd
Shpyrd deploys and operates AI-built apps, websites, APIs, and internal tools on Shpyrd Cloud or a user's own cluster. Developers and IT teams get app hosting, databases, sign-in controls, and release management in one place.
One of 143 tools in Developer Tools
Who it's for
- Developers using Claude Code, Codex, or Cursor who want their AI-built app deployed and operable beyond a local folder.
- IT teams that need a shared place to run employee-built apps behind company sign-in and team access controls.
- FDE and implementation partners delivering client projects who want a consistent deployment setup and handover.
How it fits your workflow
Connect Claude Code, Codex, or Cursor to a Shpyrd workspace, then deploy an app from Git or a local folder using buildpacks or a Dockerfile. Buildpack deployments can rebuild when new commits land on the branch.
Shpyrd runs the app and its processes alongside project resources such as Postgres, Valkey, and persistent volumes. It can put sign-in in front of the app and grant access to selected teams or colleagues.
Use logs and metrics to inspect app behavior and releases; an agent can read logs and help investigate problems. Release updates can be rolled back in one step.
Pricing
Shpyrd Cloud
Usage-based; the page says CPU is billed by use but does not list prices.
- · Instances start at 64 MiB
- · Apps can sleep when unused, with no CPU or memory charged while asleep
- · App hosting and associated project resources
Self-managed
Shpyrd is open source under MPL-2.0; no price is stated.
- · Run Shpyrd on your own cluster
- · Quick start for deploying an app
Prices checked on Oct 12, 2026 from the vendor's site. They can change; confirm before you buy.
Key features
- Deployment from Git or a folder
- Deploy a project from Git or from a local folder using buildpacks or a Dockerfile. With buildpacks, new commits on the selected branch trigger rebuilds.
- Agent-operated deployment and troubleshooting
- Claude Code, Codex, or Cursor can deploy an app, read its logs, inspect metrics, and help identify issues using commands.
- App access controls
- Add a sign-in page in front of an app and allow access to selected people or teams without adding sign-in code to the app itself.
- Databases, cache, and persistent volumes
- Postgres, Valkey, and persistent volumes can live in the same project as an app. The page says database and cache connections are provided through DATABASE_URL and REDIS_URL.
- Automatic sleep and wake
- Apps can sleep when unused to avoid CPU or memory charges while asleep. A signed-in visit wakes the app; the page illustrates a wake time of about six seconds.
- Releases, rollback, logs, and metrics
- Track releases, view logs and metrics for web processes and workers, and roll back a release in one step.
Works with
- Claude Code
- OpenAI Codex
- Cursor
- Git
- Docker
- Postgres and Valkey
Limitations to know
- Apps that sleep when unused need to wake on a signed-in visit; the page illustrates this taking about six seconds.
- The page does not provide specific Cloud prices or a detailed breakdown of usage charges.
Alternatives to consider
-
Gadget
Choose it if you want a full-stack JavaScript development and hosting platform with a hosted backend and tooling, rather than a deployment platform focused on shipping apps built with AI coding agents.
Getting started
- Sign up for Shpyrd Cloud or choose the self-managed option.
- Connect Claude Code, Codex, or Cursor to your workspace.
- Deploy a project from Git or a local folder using buildpacks or a Dockerfile.
- Grant access to the team or named colleagues who should use the app.
