Built for All Teams That Ship Node.js
From solo developers to growing agencies, Velocity is built around how real teams take products from idea to production.
When sales go live, everything is on the line
During promotions or peak shopping periods, even a slowdown can cost you orders. Autonomous keeps your store fast and checkouts smooth, so you don’t lose revenue when demand surges.
Book every seat without missing a beat
The moment tickets go live, traffic can spike within seconds. Autonomous keeps your booking application online and responsive, so you sell out events without last-minute panic.
When students and users log in all at once
Course launches, enrolments, and live sessions bring sudden spikes in activity. Autonomous keeps logins stable and lessons loading, so users don’t get blocked or frustrated.
When your content suddenly goes viral
A viral post or breaking story can bring a surge you didn’t plan for. Autonomous absorbs the spike using real-time auto-scaling, so your audience keeps reading and engaging instead of hitting errors.

Frequently Asked Questions
How is this different from serverless hosting?

Which frameworks and runtimes are supported?
12 frameworks out of the box (NextJS, Remix, TanStack, React, Astro, Nuxt, Svelte, Vite, Express, Fastify, Angular, n8n). Node.js LTS 22.x and 24.x, selectable per application.
