How it works

From catalog to running app.

  1. Pick an app and a plan

    Browse the catalog, compare plans, and choose the one that fits.

  2. Pay

    Subscribe securely — we never see or store your card, our payment provider does.

  3. Your app is live

    It runs at yourslug.poof.run, secured with HTTPS — manage it anytime from your account.

Infrastructure

How it actually runs.

  • Shared machines, isolated containers Your app runs in its own container on a shared server in the EU — it never touches another customer's data.

  • One certificate, every subdomain Traefik terminates HTTPS with a single wildcard certificate, so every app gets it automatically.

  • From order to live Pay, and the panel provisions your app on a server, checks it's healthy, and brings it online — no manual step.

  • More regions and your own setup A dedicated machine and more regions are on the roadmap — today every app runs in the EU on a shared server. See the roadmap

What's included

Hosting, handled. Nothing to configure.

  • HTTPS includedEvery app gets a trusted certificate on its own subdomain, automatically — nothing to request or renew.

  • Updates without downtimeNew versions of your app roll out while it keeps serving traffic.

  • Your data stays in the EUYour app and its data run on servers in the EU.

  • We watch it around the clockAutomated health checks keep an eye on your app, day and night.

  • Pause and resume with billingMiss a payment and your app is suspended, not deleted — pay again and it's back, unchanged.

  • Cancel anytimeCancel whenever you like; your app keeps running until the period you've already paid for ends.

Coming next

On the roadmap, not here yet.

  • Restore Soon

    We already try to copy your data when we stop, upgrade or delete your application. Restoring from a copy yourself is not here yet.

  • Dedicated servers Soon

    Your own machine, not shared with other customers, for workloads that need it.

  • Resource graphs Soon

    See your app's CPU and memory usage right in your dashboard.

  • Your own email server Soon

    Send your app's email through your own SMTP server instead of ours.

  • More apps Soon

    More open-source applications joining the catalog.

  • Choose your region Soon

    Pick which region your app runs in — today everything runs in the EU.

Security

One account. Every way in.

  • Passkeys and passwordsOne touch with a passkey. The password is optional.

  • Built-in providers, or any OpenID Connect you addKeycloak and Okta go in from the admin panel, without code.

  • Two-factor and sessionsRecovery codes for the day the phone goes for a swim. Sign out the device you left at the airport.

Users & Teams

Teams see their own data. Only their own.

  • Four roles, invitations by emailOwner, Admin, Editor and Viewer decide who invites, removes and edits.

  • Filtered in SQLEvery query is limited to the active workspace. A forgotten WHERE can’t leak data.

  • Deletion that means itDeleting an account takes the person’s data with it, as GDPR asks.

  • Subscription per workspacePaid plans with Paddle: checkout, Webhook and subscription status are built in. Off until an admin enables the provider.

Your control panel speaks 12 languages.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What can I run?

Pick any application from our catalog, choose a plan, and it's deployed as a running instance within minutes.

Can I cancel anytime?

Yes — cancel from your account whenever you like. Your app keeps running until the period you've already paid for ends, and we don't charge a cancellation fee.

Where is my data stored?

In the EU. We run your application and store its data there; our infrastructure provider is Amazon Web Services.

Do you back up my data?

When we stop your application we try to take a copy of its data; we always take one before an upgrade, and before a deletion wherever the data is still on the server. We keep each copy for 30 days. We don't make regular backups in between, and you can't restore from a copy yourself — keep your own copy of anything you can't afford to lose. See what's on the roadmap

What happens to my app after I cancel?

It's stopped, not deleted: your app and its data are kept for 30 days, and you can bring it back online anytime simply by paying again. Once that window closes, we permanently delete it.

What if I'm not happy with my purchase?

Ask for a refund within 14 days of your first payment and you'll get it in full, no questions asked.

Ready when you are.
