## About

Ployz gives teams a cloud dashboard that runs on servers you rent. Push to GitHub and it automatically builds and deploys across multiple servers, creating preview environments for every pull request. One‑click databases for PostgreSQL, MySQL, Redis, and MongoDB are available, and no Dockerfile is required unless you want one. With a simple UI and no Kubernetes, Ployz keeps hosting costs low and gives you full control over your infrastructure.

## Ployz as an alternative

## Questions

### What is the pricing model for Ployz?

Ployz is free on your own servers with unlimited servers, projects, preview environments, and custom domains. There are no per‑server fees. Upcoming Hobby and Pro plans will add log retention and team features.

### Do I need Docker to deploy my application?

No. Ployz automatically detects the language and framework and builds the application without a Dockerfile unless you explicitly provide one.

### How do I add a new server to my Ployz deployment?

Run the agent command: `ployz server add root@<ip>` to register the server, then `ployz service add <service> --repo <repo>` to deploy a service to it.

### Can I use preview environments for pull requests?

Yes. Every pull request automatically gets its own preview environment, which shares the same stack as production and is accessible via a unique subdomain.
