Serverless cloud for coding agents
Your agent deploys apps, Postgres and Redis with one command. They sleep when idle, and you pay by the second.

redisDeploy any app without writing a Dockerfile
Run lizard up in a folder or connect a GitHub repo. lizardpack reads the code, picks the build and starts the app. Learn more
Managed Object StorageNo Dockerfile needed
lizardpack detects Node, Python, Go, Rust, Ruby, PHP, Java and static sites. Add a Dockerfile when you want full control.
git push to deploy
Connect a GitHub repo, and each push to its branch ships. Set a root directory and watch paths for monorepos.
No downtime on deploy
The new version takes traffic once its port answers. Until then, the old one keeps serving.

Lizard bills the CPU and memory your services use, by the second. With Serverless they sleep between requests; paused, they stop compute. See pricing
$0.09/ month
5 idle services, one day of traffic repeated.
Lizard: median measured cost of idle services over the 7 days to , $0.32 a month for a Vite app, $0.33 for Managed Postgres and $0.12 for Managed Redis when always on. Heroku: Basic dynos when always on, the $5 Eco pool when asleep, Postgres Essential-0 $5 and Key-Value Mini $3. Render: static sites free, Postgres $6 and Key Value $10. Plan fees and storage are left out; Lizard Pro is $19 a month with $19 of usage included.
Every app gets HTTPS and a private network
Each app gets a public URL with a certificate. Services in a project talk to each other by name and never leave the private network. Learn more
HTTPS on every app
Each app gets a
name-xxxx.onlizard.comaddress with TLS.Private network
Services reach each other at
name.lizard.internalon any port, inside one project and region.Custom domains
Run
lizard domain app.example.com, then add a CNAME and a TXT record.
Add cores, memory or copies in one command
lizard scale sets CPU, memory and replicas for a service. Every copy sits behind the same URL. Learn more
Up to 4 vCPU and 8 GB
Pick 1 to 4 cores and 128 MB to 8 GB of memory for each copy.
Up to 5 replicas
Run up to five copies of a service on Lizard Pro.
Sleep when idle
lizard sleep --onstops an app after 5 minutes to 24 hours without traffic. The next request wakes it in about a second.US East or EU West
Run in Virginia or in Limburg, near your users.

Logs and metrics your agent can read
Stream build and runtime logs, and watch CPU, memory, network and disk for every service, in the dashboard or the terminal. Learn more
Build and runtime logs
lizard logs --build for the build, --tail and --level error for the app, --restarts for crashes.
Metrics for up to 30 days
CPU, memory, network and disk for the last hour, day, week or month.
Cost per service
lizard metrics --cost shows what each service costs, next to its CPU and memory.
Your coding agent runs the whole loop
Every command takes --json, so an agent reads data, not a table. Add the Lizard Skill or connect Lizard MCP, and your agent deploys, reads the logs and fixes what broke. Learn more

FAQ
How do I deploy an app?
From your project folder, run lizard up. The CLI uploads the code, builds it, deploys it and prints the live URL. To deploy from GitHub instead, run lizard add -r owner/repo, and each push to the branch deploys again.
Do I need a Dockerfile?
No. lizardpack detects Node, Python, Go, Rust, Ruby, PHP, Java, Hugo and static sites and builds them for you. Add a Dockerfile when you want full control. To run an image you already have, write a one-line Dockerfile that starts with FROM.
Which databases can I add?
Managed Postgres 18, Managed Redis 8 and Managed Object Storage, which is S3-compatible. Add them with lizard add postgres redis s3. Postgres and Redis use the same CPU and memory rates as apps. For files on disk, attach a persistent volume to a service; it mounts at /data.
Do apps sleep when idle?
Yes, once you turn it on. lizard sleep --on stops a service after 5 minutes to 24 hours without traffic, and the next request wakes an app in about a second. Sleep also works for Managed Postgres and Managed Redis. A sleeping service uses no CPU or memory, so you pay only for its storage.
How much does it cost?
Lizard bills the CPU and memory your services use, by the second. One vCPU for a whole month costs $18.26 and 1 GB of memory $9.13, 10% less than on Railway. Lizard Pro costs $19 a month and includes $19 of usage; usage above that is pay as you go at the published rates. Builds count as usage. New accounts start with a 7-day trial that includes $5 of usage; it needs a card, and nothing is charged until it ends.
Can I move an app from Railway, Render or Heroku?
Yes. Deploy the code with lizard up or from GitHub, add databases with lizard add postgres redis and copy the data with pg_dump and pg_restore. Set variables with lizard secrets set KEY=value; references use the same ${{name.KEY}} syntax as Railway. Then run lizard domain app.example.com and update DNS. With the Lizard Skill, your coding agent can do the whole move.
Can my coding agent deploy to Lizard?
Yes. Every Lizard CLI command takes --json, so the agent reads data, not a table. Install the Lizard Skill with npx skills add lizard-build/skill -g, or connect Lizard MCP at https://lizard.build/mcp. It works with Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, OpenCode and other coding agents.
Where do my apps run?
In US East (Virginia) or EU West (Limburg). Services in the same project and region share a private network and reach each other at name.lizard.internal.
How do I install the Lizard CLI?
On macOS or Linux, run curl -fsSL https://lizard.build/install.sh | bash. On Windows, run irm https://lizard.build/api/cli/install.ps1 | iex in PowerShell. With Node 20 or newer you can also run npm install -g @lizard-build/cli. The CLI is free.
