Sniffed 9d ago Card required#hosting#containers#serverless#docker#gpu#postgres#paas

Deploy a Docker container with per-second billing, and plan on $29 a month. Koyeb is a serverless platform for deploying Docker containers, one-click apps, Postgres databases and GPU workloads in multiple regions. The pricing page lists Pro at $29 a month with $10 of compute included, Scale at $299 a month with $100 of compute and a 99.9% SLA, and Enterprise from $1,000 with a 99.99% SLA. It does not list a free web-service plan. Its serverless Postgres has an instance labeled Free 5h with 1 GB of storage. Billing is per second and 1 TB of bandwidth a month is included. G2 shows 4.9 from 20 reviews and praises easy deployment and the dashboard. Trustpilot shows 2.4 from 9 reviews, and most of the low ones describe ID verification demands and blocked accounts. The pricing page also carries a banner saying Koyeb is joining Mistral AI.

πŸ‘Ž Watch out

  • βˆ’The pricing page I read lists no free web-service plan. Trustpilot reviewers from October 2025 to April 2026 describe trying a free tier, so check the current sign-up flow before you plan around one.
  • βˆ’Account blocks are the main Trustpilot complaint. Five of the nine reviews (October 2025 to April 2026) say the account was blocked or they were asked to verify identity with an ID. One says the check went through a third party, and two say support did not reply.
  • βˆ’A September 2024 Trustpilot reviewer said their account was flagged as suspicious after deployments several times, and claimed free-tier performance was throttled to push upgrades. That claim is unverified.
  • βˆ’G2 reviewers see a young product. One said Koyeb is still relatively recent and they wished for more regions and features. G2's summary has 1 mention each of limited locations and missing features.
  • βˆ’A January 2026 Trustpilot reviewer said the 1-click deployment apps were not working.
  • βˆ’The pricing page shows a banner saying Koyeb is joining Mistral AI, and the page does not say what changes for pricing or the roadmap. Check before you commit to a long-term plan.
  • βˆ’The 99.9% SLA is listed on Scale at $299 a month, and the 99.99% SLA on Enterprise from $1,000, which is a large step up from the $29 Pro plan.
  • βˆ’Trustpilot shows 2.4 from 9 reviews on an unclaimed profile, a low score from a small sample. G2's 4.9 comes from 20 reviews, so neither rating is large.

The catch

The pricing page I read does not list a free web-service plan. The paid plans are Pro at $29 a month with $10 of included compute, 10 users, 100 services and email and chat support, Scale at $299 a month with $100 of included compute and a 99.9% SLA, and Enterprise from $1,000 with a 99.99% SLA, SOC 2 and ISO 27001. Billing is per second. 1 TB of bandwidth a month is included, then $0.02 per GB in the EU and US or $0.04 per GB in Asia. The free item on the page is the serverless Postgres instance labeled Free 5h, with 0.25 vCPU, 1 GB RAM and 1 GB of storage. The next size, Small, is $29.76 a month, and storage is $0.50 per GB. Older evidence points the other way. Trustpilot reviewers in May 2025 and from October 2025 to April 2026 refer to a free tier, and several of the later ones say they hit an identity verification step instead of a deploy. If you plan to use a free tier, test the sign-up flow first. Early-stage startups can apply for up to $30k in credits. The pricing page also shows a banner saying Koyeb is joining Mistral AI. I did not find details on what that changes. I did not find a statement about credit cards or commercial use, so both are left as unknown.
