How it works
Deploy in three simple steps
Deploying is a single Git push. Connect a GitHub, GitLab or Bitbucket repository and Orbit inspects the project, detecting the framework, install step, build command and start command for you with Nixpacks, with no Dockerfile or YAML required. It packages your app into a container, builds it, and distributes it across the Flux nodes you pick, or spreads it worldwide automatically. From then on every push to your chosen branch triggers a fresh build and redeploy through a webhook, with build logs streaming in real time. If a build fails, the last known-good version stays live and Orbit rolls back on its own, so a bad commit can never take your site down.
That detection step is why Orbit is not limited to static sites or to one ecosystem. Node.js, Python, Go, Rust, Java, .NET, PHP, Ruby, Erlang, Elixir and Dart all work out of the box, and front-end frameworks like Next.js, Remix, Nuxt, SvelteKit, Astro and Vite build and deploy in the same zero-config flow. Because your app runs as a full long-running container rather than a serverless function, the backends other platforms handle poorly run natively. That includes Django, Flask, FastAPI, Rails, Express, Go, Rust, Erlang, Elixir and Dart services, background workers, and persistent processes. If it builds into a container, Orbit can deploy it.
Every push to your default branch rebuilds and redeploys automatically, so shipping is just git push. Environment variables and secrets are set per app and injected at runtime rather than baked into the image, which means the same build can be promoted without rebuilding it. And because there is no vendor runtime to code against, moving an app off Orbit is as straightforward as moving it on. It remains an ordinary container throughout.

Features
Everything you need to ship fast
Zero Docker headaches. Orbit handles the full build, deploy, and operations pipeline so you can focus on code.
Core capabilities include framework auto-detection, container builds, automatic redeploys on push, streaming build logs, rollback to the last healthy release, environment variables, secrets, and agent access through MCP. Paid plans also include custom domains with managed TLS.
Unlimited Builds
No limit on build count or build duration. Ship as often as you need.
Dedicated Resources
No shared hardware. Your rented CPU, RAM and storage are exclusively yours, not a metered slice of someone else’s server. Performance stays predictable, and there is no vendor lock-in.
100+ Frameworks
Node.js, Python, Rust, Go, Java, .NET, PHP, Erlang, Elixir, Dart and more, auto-detected every time.
Zero Configuration
Auto-detects project type, installs dependencies, and builds automatically.
Built-in CI/CD
GitHub, GitLab, and Bitbucket webhooks plus polling mode. Your workflow, your choice.
Custom Domain + SSL
Connect your own domain with automatic SSL via Flux's reverse proxy network.
Geolocation Selection
Deploy to specific regions worldwide or let Orbit distribute automatically.
Deploy Previews
Automatic preview deployments for branches and pull requests.
Auto Rollback
Failed deployments automatically revert to the last known-good version.
Monorepo Support
Deploy specific folders from a monorepo using the PROJECT_PATH variable.
Health Monitoring
Built-in health checks and process supervision keep your app always available.
Enhanced Security
Non-root execution, automatic log rotation, and encrypted app specs.
AI Agent Operations
Connect an MCP-compatible agent to inspect, deploy, monitor, and manage the Orbit apps you own.
Why Orbit
Orbit vs. The Rest
Dedicated resources, unlimited builds, a fraction of the price.
Centralized platforms like Vercel and Netlify are polished, but they run your app on shared, metered infrastructure inside one company's cloud, with paid tiers starting around $19–$20 a month and real limits on backends and long-running servers. Orbit gives you dedicated CPU and RAM on the decentralized Flux network from $0.99 a month, native support for full-stack backends, and a genuinely free-forever tier with no non-commercial restriction. The table below is the short version; the Orbit vs. Vercel comparison and the Vercel, Netlify & Cloudflare Pages breakdown go through it line by line.
| Provider | Plan | Price | CPU | RAM | Builds |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
OrbitBest Value | Developer | $2.49/mo | 1.5 Cores | 4 GB | Unlimited |
Vercel | Pro | $20/mo | Shared | Shared | Limited |
Netlify | Pro | $19/mo | Shared | Shared | Credit-based |
Render | Standard | $25/mo | 1 Core | 2 GB | 500 min/mo |
Railway | Hobby | $5/mo | Usage-based | Usage-based | Usage-based |

Deployed across a worldwide network
Loading live node distribution from the Flux network…
Most modern hosting concentrates your app inside one company's data centers, leaving you with one provider's pricing, one provider's policies, and one single point of failure. Orbit takes a different path. Your app runs on the Flux network: thousands of independently operated nodes across dozens of countries, run by thousands of separate operators. Because no single party owns the infrastructure, there is no gatekeeper who can deplatform you, no vendor able to lock in your data, and no lone data center whose outage takes you offline.
Your container also runs on real, dedicated hardware rather than a metered slice of a shared server, and it runs on several nodes at once, so the network absorbs the failures that would mean downtime on a single-server setup. For dApp front-ends, indie projects and teams that want genuine redundancy and censorship resistance, decentralized hosting delivers the reliability of a top-tier cloud without handing control to one corporation.
Pricing
Select Your Plan
Choose your plan based on your resource needs.
Every plan includes unlimited builds, automatic deploys on every push, rollbacks, and the full Orbit feature set; paid plans add dedicated CPU, RAM and storage. There is no contract and no egress billing: you pay for the resources your app reserves, and you can change or cancel a plan at any time.
The Free plan and the free trial are currently unavailable
New deployments start on a paid plan, so the free 7-day trial is not offered at checkout for now. Apps already running on the Free plan are not affected and keep renewing as usual. Your 30-day money-back guarantee still covers your first paid period.

Standard
For growing projects and small apps
Billed $26.28/yr
Pro
For active development and production apps
Billed $42.12/yr

* Restrictions may apply to prevent abuse.
* The Free plan is currently unavailable for new deployments. Apps already on it are not affected: they keep renewing automatically for as long as they are your only Git app on the network. Additional Git apps are charged $0.99/month each.
* The free 7-day trial for customers new to Flux Cloud is currently unavailable, so every new deployment starts on a paid billing period. Our 30-day money-back guarantee still covers your first paid month.
The Free plan runs on a single instance. Brief downtime may occur if the hosting node restarts. For high-availability apps, Standard or Pro plans are recommended.
Private GitHub repositories are deployed as Enterprise apps, running exclusively on ArcaneOS nodes with full encryption. Enterprise adds $1.33/month on Free, or $2.66/month on Standard, Pro, and Custom plans, already included in the price shown at checkout.
