    This looks really promising. I understand the rationale behind BYOS, but I think there's a segment of builders who'd prefer a managed service over provisioning/securing their own machine.

      Thanks! You're absolutely right.

      Managed hosting is actually on the roadmap. The plan is to offer on-demand containers (likely Azure Container Apps or Fly.io) where users can spin up an environment without provisioning their own server.

      For privacy-conscious users, even the managed option would use encrypted volumes with user-controlled keys - so we (CloudForge) couldn't access their code either.

      BYOS came first because that's what I personally needed, but managed is definitely coming for those who prefer the convenience.

      Would you prefer pay-per-hour or a monthly allocation (like "50 hours/month included")?

        My policy as a CTO is to always prefer things which are capped, so I'd go with 50 hours/month.
