How it works
Connect provider & repo
Select Hetzner or DigitalOcean; add SSH key, pick your repo.
Deploy
RunMist provisions the server with cloud-init, sets up Caddy, systemd, and Litestream; clones your repo via deploy key.
Operate
See per-app status, logs, restarts, and resource usage. Add more apps with simple port assignments.
Recover
One-click failover: spin up on another provider, restore Litestream backup, come back online in minutes.

No bandwidth surprises
With RunMist, your traffic rides on your VPS bandwidth, not a metered platform that charges per request.
| Provider | Price | Included bandwidth | ~Requests/mo | Overage |
|---|---|---|---|---|
Hetzner VPS | $10/mo | 20 TB | ~4B | ~€1/TB |
DigitalOcean | $12/mo | 2 TB | ~400M | $0.01/GB |
Vercel Pro | $20/mo | 1 TB | ~200M | ~$0.40/GB |
Render Pro | $19/mo | 500 GB | ~100M | Contact sales |
Railway | Usage-based | None | Pay per request | $0.05/GB |
Fly.io | Usage-based | None | Pay per request | $0.02/GB |
Request estimates assume ~5 KB average response size. Inbound traffic is free on all providers. Hetzner bandwidth is for EU locations.
Why RunMist exists
"I was paying $30/app across a dozen projects on managed platforms. Now they all run on one $10 Hetzner server. RunMist is the deployment tool I wanted to exist: git push deploys, rollback, previews, on infrastructure I own."

Security & Trust
Your infrastructure, your data. RunMist is the orchestrator, not the host.
Outbound-Only Agent
Signed updates, no inbound ports required. Optional offline grace mode.
Minimal Telemetry
Health and version metadata only. No app data exfiltration.
Encrypted Secrets
Settings encrypted at rest. Memory-only secrets on deploy. Scrubbed after use.
Hardening Guide
UFW defaults, SSH key auth, Tailscale option, per-app users/units.
Frequently asked questions
Coming from Vercel?
Vercel is great for static sites and edge functions. But if you need a real database, you shouldn't have to bolt on a managed Postgres just to deploy.
The Vercel way
- No SQLite support. Vercel killed their own Postgres and now requires a third-party provider (Neon, Supabase)
- Neon Launch is ~$15/mo per project on top of your Vercel bill
- Bandwidth and function overages add up fast once you pass free limits
- Serverless cold starts on every request
The RunMist way
- SQLite lives next to your app. Zero latency, zero DB cost.
- Litestream backups to S3 for pennies
- Persistent server process. No cold starts, no serverless limits.
- Flat pricing. No overage surprises.
