Plorigo

Launch with control.

Deploy apps to servers you control — a Vercel-like deployment platform for developers, teams, agencies, and AI-built apps. Get previews, domains, SSL, logs, databases, backups, rollbacks, and production safety — on infrastructure you own, without surprise platform bills.

[!WARNING] Plorigo is in early development. The architecture, APIs, and data model are still changing and it is not yet ready for production use. We are building in the open — star the repo and watch the roadmap to follow along, and jump into Discussions to help shape it.

What is Plorigo?

Plorigo is an open-source BYOS (Bring Your Own Server) deployment platform. You connect a server you control — a cheap VPS, a bare-metal box, anything that runs Docker — and Plorigo gives you the deployment experience you expect from Vercel or Railway: Git deploys, preview URLs, automatic SSL, logs, databases, backups, and one-click rollbacks.

Two things make it different:

1. You own the infrastructure. No metered traffic, no surprise platform bills — you pay your server provider, and that's it.
2. Production safety is built in — including for AI-built apps. Plorigo checks secrets, databases, domains, and backups before you go live, explains failures in plain English, and keeps AI agents on a tight leash.

Your AI can read logs and suggest fixes. It cannot delete production data.

Who it's for

• Developers & indie hackers — deploy side projects and SaaS apps on affordable VPS hosts (Hetzner, DigitalOcean, Scaleway, …) with modern DX.
• Coolify / Dokploy switchers — a cleaner dashboard with safer production workflows, better backups, and easier team isolation.
• Vercel / Railway switchers — keep Git deploys and previews; lose the billing anxiety and runtime limits.
• Agencies & freelancers — host many client apps on servers you control, with isolated workspaces and safe client access.
• AI-assisted / "vibe" builders — take an app built with Cursor, Lovable, Bolt, Replit, Claude Code, Windsurf, or v0 and launch it safely.
• Internal tool builders — let teams ship with AI, but deploy with guardrails.

Highlights (planned & in progress)

See the Roadmap for what's shipping when. The platform is being built around:

• 🚀 Deployment engine — deploy from GitHub, Dockerfile, or Docker Compose, with build/runtime logs, health checks, and one-click rollback.
• 🌐 Domains & SSL — custom domains with automatic Let's Encrypt SSL via Caddy.
• 🔑 Secrets done right — per-environment, encrypted at rest, redacted in logs, write-only where possible.
• 🗄️ Databases & backups — Postgres/Redis services, scheduled backups to S3-compatible storage, and restore confidence.
• 👀 Preview environments — per-branch / per-PR previews you can share.
• 🩺 Production Readiness Doctor — catches missing env vars, hardcoded secrets, and unsafe defaults before launch.
• 🤖 Safe AI-agent gateway (MCP) — read logs and create previews; never delete production data.
• 👥 Teams & agencies — workspaces, roles, audit logs, and isolated client access.

Getting started

Plorigo is in a private alpha — the deployment loop works end to end for a focused set of sources. The Getting started guide takes you from nothing to a running app on a server you control, and is honest about the alpha's limits; if something breaks, the troubleshooting guide is the place to look.

🚧 A one-command Docker Compose self-host is on the way. For now you run the control plane yourself — see development.md. Watch the roadmap, and see CONTRIBUTING.md to help build it.

License & open core

Plorigo's core is licensed under the GNU Affero General Public License v3.0 (LICENSE).

In plain English:

• ✅ You can self-host Plorigo for free, forever, on your own infrastructure.
• ✅ You can modify it and use it however you like internally.
• ⚖️ If you run a modified version as a network service for others, AGPL requires you to publish your source under the same license. This keeps the project open and prevents closed-source clones.
• 🏢 A separate commercial license is available for organizations that need to embed Plorigo in a proprietary product or want terms other than AGPL — this is part of how the project sustains itself (alongside a future managed cloud).

The Plorigo name and logo are trademarks and are not covered by the AGPL — see TRADEMARK.md. You're welcome to run and fork the code; please don't pass off a fork as the official Plorigo product.

💜 Support Plorigo

Plorigo is independent and open source (AGPL-3.0). Sponsorships fund focused work on the free, self-hostable core — the deployment engine, agent safety, backups, and docs everyone keeps forever.

• Individuals — a recurring sponsorship of any size genuinely helps and keeps you in the loop.
• Companies — sponsor a tier to get your logo on this README and back the infrastructure tooling your team relies on. Invoices/VAT are handled (Polar is a merchant of record), so it's easy to expense. Details in SPONSORS.md.

Not able to sponsor? ⭐ Star the repo, file good bug reports, improve the docs, or tell a friend — that support matters just as much.
