Illustrated workflow. See the real platform in action.
For small shared apps, Boat House brings hosting, a database, and sign-in together. Your agent handles the connections between them.
Replace the separate setup for supported apps. Existing apps may need code and data migration. Product names identify the services being compared.
No separate hosting project, database credentials, or sign-in system to set up.
Create your account and confirm your email. Copy one connection message into Claude Code or Codex. Your agent remembers it on this machine.
“Deploy my tracker.” Boat House provides the hosting, database, and sign-in. Your agent gives you a link.
“Share it with Maya as an editor.” They open the link and sign in. No hosting account or paid seat to buy.
About 90 seconds to connect your agent. After signup and email confirmation, with your coding agent installed. Add credit before deploying. App builds and domain activation take additional time.
A home for internal tools, client portals, and small business software.
Give people access by email. Viewers can look; editors can update the data they’re allowed to change. Your team works in the browser they already use.
Give a trusted developer Admin access. Their agent can get the source, make changes, and publish an update. Previous versions are there when you need to roll back.
Ask your agent to buy and connect a domain. Review the price, approve it, and let your agent handle the setup.
No per-person seats.
Open source, with a choice of hosting.
Up to five lightweight apps or websites. One price for your organization.
Billed daily from prepaid credit while any tool runs. Extra storage requires approval: $0.25 per used GB/month. Domains: registrar price + $2/year. External AI services are separate.
Inspect the code. Adapt it. Host it yourself. Boat House is available under Apache 2.0, with no software license fee.
You own your software and data. Export your tools when you want to take them elsewhere.
Explore on GitHubSelf-hosting requires your own infrastructure and external services. You manage their costs, security, updates, and backups.
Think of a company website, client intake form, sales tracker, calculator, or small team dashboard. It serves pages, saves ordinary business records, and does a little work when someone uses it. A static website counts as one tool, too.
Your organization can have up to five tools, including stopped tools. Together they share 512 MB of app memory and half a CPU core. Each tool includes 1 GB for its database and saved files. There is no fixed visitor allowance: what your app does matters more than how many people have access.
Large datasets, video processing, hosting AI models, frequent heavy imports, or software that works hard continuously. An app that calls an external AI service can still fit; you pay that provider separately. Your agent can check usage and help you fit within the plan.
There is no automatic upgrade or surprise capacity charge. CPU work slows at the shared limit. Running out of memory can stop or restart an app. Full storage refuses new writes and pauses the affected tool; existing data is kept. Your account shows usage, and storage warnings arrive before it fills. Ask your agent to reduce usage or contact us for more capacity.
No. Viewers and editors open the app in their browser and sign in. Developers use their own connected agent to change the software.
Admin access gives a trusted developer full control of a tool, including its source, secrets, sharing, and deletion. Give editors access when they only need to work with the app’s data.
Boat House provides HTTPS, app access controls, separate app databases, and nightly backups on the hosted service. Read our security page for the current controls and limitations before deciding what data to store.
Yes. Give your agent the app’s source and ask it to deploy to Boat House. Your agent may need to adapt the app and migrate its data. The documentation explains the supported deployment format.
