Quickdeploy
Déployez votre application Web sur un VPS en moins de 5 minutes. De localhost à en ligne avec une seule commande. Votre propre serveur, votre domaine, zéro dépendance au fournisseur. (Le chiffre d'affaires est un peu inexact car il s'agit d'un seul produit dans mon compte, quickdeploy représente le revenu à partir d'août)
Quickdeploy: $0 MRR but 70% monthly growth - deploy web apps to VPS in 5 minutes with zero vendor lock-in.
Currently none - simple deployment wrapper with minimal technical differentiation
- Indie developers and small startups building with modern JS frameworks (Next.js, SvelteKit, etc.) who want simple VPS deployment without DevOps complexity
- Agency developers deploying client projects who need predictable pricing
- No clear pricing for multiple apps
- No team features
- No deployment history/rollbacks
- Limited framework support beyond listed ones
- Focus on specific frameworks (SvelteKit-first deployment)
- Add database deployment automation
- Create marketplace for deployment templates
- Offer migration from Vercel/Netlify
Medium - Developer tools can spread through GitHub repos and tech communities, but current lack of integrations limits virality
- Established players (Vercel/Netlify) could add VPS deployment feature
- Low barrier to entry means many competitors
- Revenue uncertainty - claims of growth but $0 MRR
- Single founder with limited public track record
$2,000-$5,000 for MVP (mostly development time, minimal infrastructure)
- Git integration for automatic deployments
- VPS provisioning API integration (DigitalOcean/Linode)
- SSL certificate automation
- Basic deployment dashboard
- One-command deployment CLI
