Best platform to ship a vibe-coded app

Get the app you built with AI live with a domain, a database and payments.

Last updated: 14 Nov 2026·5 tools compared·Not yet tested

You built something with Cursor, Lovable or Bolt and it works on your laptop. Now it needs a real address, a database and a way to take money. These are the platforms most people use to get there. Payments are usually Stripe on top of whichever host you choose.

Our pick: Cloudflare Workers & Pages. Cloudflare is our early pick for most solo builders because the free tier is generous for daily traffic and domains are sold at cost, so one account covers domain plus hosting. If you want the smoothest Next.js experience, Vercel is the safer choice.

How we'll test this

Take the same small Next.js app (login, a Postgres table, a Stripe test checkout), deploy it to each platform from a GitHub repo, attach a custom domain, and record time-to-live, steps, and the bill after 30 days of light traffic.

Every tool gets the same task, scored on result quality, speed, ease of use and price/free tier. Results and the test date will appear here, and the ranking can change once we have them. Full methodology
