Cloud hosting cost calculator.
A real app is more than a web box. Price the full stack, a web service plus a managed Postgres database plus a cache, and see the monthly cost on Ownkube next to Railway, Render, Heroku, Fly.io, DigitalOcean, and Northflank. The numbers update as you change the inputs. No signup, nothing to install.
A whole app costs less on Ownkube.
Postgres and a cache at near cost. Compute billed per minute.

How the estimate works
- Full stack, not the web box. The total is a web app plus a managed Postgres database plus an optional cache. Pricing a web box on its own hides the part of the bill that grows.
- Ownkube meters compute per minute, at about $18 per vCPU per month and $4.50 per GiB per month, so an idle app barely registers. Managed Postgres runs on a database box from $4 a month plus $0.25 per GB of storage, and a Valkey cache runs on a box from $2 a month.
- Competitor figures are list prices from each provider's official pricing page in 2026, mapped to the nearest real plan. Numbers derived from a published per-unit rate are marked. Treat them as illustrative estimates, not quotes.
- Honest about the field. DigitalOcean App Platform and Northflank are the closest on this workload. The chart shows Ownkube comes out cheapest of the seven, not a fixed percentage cheaper than any one of them.
