What is Stormkit?
Git-push deploys with preview URLs, plus Postgres, user sign-in, a mailer and cron jobs for web apps.
Who is Stormkit best for?
Stormkit is best for web teams who want Vercel-style previews plus a database and user sign-in on their own servers.
A preview per branch
Each branch gets its own preview URL, and environments keep separate config, with status checks before a deploy goes live.
Apps that need a back end
A Postgres database with migrations on deploy, end-user sign-in with magic links, Google or GitHub, a mailer and cron triggers come built in.
Apps in any language
Runtimes come from mise, so Node.js, Go, Python and Ruby apps run as long-lived servers.
Hosting run by an agent
Its MCP server lets a coding agent provision a server, deploy, publish and read logs without opening the dashboard.
