koigrid vs Fly.io
Managed apps with bandwidth included — the no-surprises alternative to Fly.io.
Fly.io runs your containers close to users, but pricing is usage-metered across CPU, RAM, volumes and bandwidth, and you operate much of it yourself. A fixed price for what you reserve, bandwidth included and the platform managed for you, is a calmer default.
Same setup — what you actually pay
You save ~$26/mo (53%)
For a small production app + an HA Postgres database. Estimate from public pricing; koigrid bills reserved resources by the hour, with egress included. (prices reviewed 2026-07-14)
| Feature | koigrid | Fly.io |
|---|---|---|
| Price per GB of RAM / month | $5, shared vCPU included (billed by the hour) | $6.70 for 1 GB shared-cpu (billed per second) |
| Egress (data out) | $0 — included | ~$0.02/GB |
| Same workload: 3×2 GB + 4 TB/month | $30 (3 × 2 GB, shared vCPU), egress included | ~$40 compute + ~$80 egress, variable |
| Predictable bill | Yes — fixed per reserved resource, plus your spend cap | No — pay per second of use |

What koigrid improves

HA Postgres, Redis, cron and backups managed for you.
Agent-native
Deploy and manage from your LLM via the API.
Frequently asked questions
Is koigrid cheaper than Fly.io?
It depends on the workload. koigrid charges for the RAM and disk you reserve, by the hour, shared vCPU included, from a public price list — with bandwidth included and no per-request fees. Egress-heavy setups usually come out well ahead; see the estimate above.
Can I migrate from Fly.io without lock-in?
Yes. koigrid runs on portable primitives — standard PostgreSQL, S3-compatible storage and containers — so you can move in (or out) whenever you want.
Where is my data hosted?
In data centers in the EU, on servers we run ourselves. The privacy policy says exactly where.
Can I run everything from an API or an AI agent?
Yes — koigrid is API-first and agent-native: every action has an API and a scoped token, with llms.txt and OpenAPI so an LLM can operate it end to end.
