v1.4.0
NewImproved

Canary deployments and scoped secrets

Ship with confidence using our new canary deployment strategy. Gradually roll out changes to a small subset of servers, monitor real traffic, and automatically promote or rollback based on health checks.

  • Percentage-based traffic splitting between stable and canary pools
  • Automatic rollback when error rate exceeds configured thresholds
  • Scoped environment secrets per deployment stage

Available on Pro and Business plans.

v1.3.2
New

Cloudflare integration and DNS automation

Connect your Cloudflare account and have DNS records created and updated automatically whenever you add, move, or retire an application. No more manual record edits during zero-downtime cutovers.

  • Automatic A / AAAA records per application
  • Optional proxying and SSL via Cloudflare
  • Per-team credential scoping
v1.3.1
ImprovedFixed

Faster application wizard

The application setup wizard is now about 40% faster end-to-end. We trimmed roundtrips during repository discovery, cached environment defaults, and tightened validation on each step.

  • Faster GitHub repository discovery
  • Better inline validation messages
  • Fixed a bug where back navigation could lose unsaved fields

Team collaboration and roles

Invite teammates, assign granular roles, and collaborate on servers and applications. Audit logs capture every change so you always know who did what.

Welcome to deploy crate

We're thrilled to introduce deploy crate: self-hosting without the headaches. Provision servers, deploy apps, and monitor everything from a single dashboard.

This is just the beginning — we have a lot more coming. Thanks for being here.
