The FREE tier on Miget is designed for developers who want to experiment, learn, or deploy small-scale projects without incurring any cost. It’s ideal for hobby projects, prototyping, or simple web applications.
You can run up to two small applications with a minimal 96Mi memory limit each or a single application with a 128Mi memory limit and add a free addon, such as a database, which also requires a minimum of 128Mi memory.

Instance
Instance (where Application code runs) is a CloudHypervisor microVM. These are lightweight, secure virtual machines based on strong hardware virtualization. Your workloads are safely isolated no matter where they’re running on our infrastructure.
An instance is a Kubernetes namespace running on a Kubernetes cluster in a specified region. It includes Miget’s fair scheduler and a resource quota, allowing workloads to run efficiently within the allocated resources and ensuring fair usage across tasks.

Collaborators
You cannot share your app with other users.
Teams
Your app cannot be shared with teams on the FREE tier.
Limitations
- Memory Limits – The minimal memory allocation is 96Mi per application, making it suitable for lightweight applications, especially those built in memory-efficient languages like Go.
- Custom Domains – While you can add your custom domain, TLS/SSL certificates (such as Let’s Encrypt) aren’t included by default. You can, however, upload your own certificates.
- No Cron Jobs – The FREE tier doesn’t include the cronjob addon, though it can be purchased separately if needed.
- Storage – The storage available in the FREE tier isn’t optimized for high speed.
- Performance – The performance is provided on a best-effort basis. During peak times, resources may be limited, and in extreme cases, applications could be temporarily paused or stopped.
- Service Limitations – Applications that don’t receive regular traffic may experience longer response times due to spinning down when inactive. This makes the FREE tier more suitable for development, testing, and projects where uptime and response time are not critical.
- Concurrent Builds – The FREE tier allows you to run one build at a time, making it suitable for smaller projects where build concurrency isn’t critical.
- Collaborators – The FREE tier does not allow you to add or share your application with other users.
- Teams – Applications on the FREE tier cannot be shared with a team, limiting collaboration to a single user.
