Frequently Asked Questions
How is this different from serverless hosting?
Serverless spins up on demand and winds down when idle, causing cold starts and usage-based billing. Velocity runs on persistent, always-on servers with flat pricing and no spin-up delay.
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.
Is it really free during Public Preview?
Yes. No charge during Public Preview; pricing applies from GA (Aug 31) onward.
What databases are available?
PostgreSQL, MySQL, and MongoDB can all be provisioned from the dashboard. Skip provisioning if you use an external database or don’t need one.
What security features are included on every plan?
WAF, DDoS protection, Malware Protection, and Enterprise CDN.
Can I host multiple apps on one server?
Yes. Starting at GA, every plan supports multiple apps per server - 5 on Starter, 8 on Professional, 14 on Growth, 30 on Scale, and 50 on Plus - bringing per-app costs down to as low as $3-4/month at list price.
Can I change my plan later?
Yes, upgrade or downgrade any time — no lock-in.
Is there a free trial?
Starting at GA, Starter and Professional include a 3-day free trial. During Public Preview, all plans are free regardless of tier.
