What is the pricing for deployment and hosting?
Hosting – we only charge for compute, i.e. actual usage for your app. Hosting your frontend is free. We charge 2 credits for each compute-hour on your app's backend when deployed – i.e. when the backend of your application is triggered and does work). Deployment to custom domains is included on the $50/mo "Launch" plan and above.
How does deployment and hosting work?
We provide a 1-click deploy experience to [username].databutton.app/[appname]. We also support deployment to custom domains (available at the $50 "Launch" plan and higher). We provide this for convenience and ease of use. If you want to deploy on your infrastructure, you can reach out to us.
Do I need to bring my own model/LLM key(s) to use Databutton?
No, not to use the Databutton AI app developer! We're always evaluating the best models available for the agentic framework you interact with in Databutton and associated costs are covered in your Databutton credit usage.
What if I want to make an AI-driven app?
If you want to build an app utilising a model or service (e.g. GPT-4, ElevenLabs, etc.), you will either need to bring your own API key/secrets for use in your application or request an API key/secrets from your application’s users.
Who owns my app’s code and IP?
You own your code and IP. Databutton is a facilitator in realising your big idea; we do not have any claim to your IP. We host your code on our service in order to make it easy to iterate, deploy, and provide a more on-rails experience.
How do credits work?
Credits are billed monthly and do not roll over to the next month.
