About

CapRover is a self-hosted platform as a service for deploying and managing web applications and databases on Docker. It provides a web dashboard and CLI for app deployment, SSL setup with Let's Encrypt, Nginx-based routing, Docker Swarm clustering, and one-click installs for services such as MySQL, MongoDB, Postgres, and WordPress.

The product is aimed at developers who want to run applications on their own server without managing low-level server setup, while still keeping direct control over Docker, Nginx, and custom configuration. The documentation notes support for multiple languages and frameworks, deployment from source, GitHub, GitLab, webhooks, and git push, plus optional clustering and custom Nginx settings.

CapRover is presented as a self-hosted, open-source PaaS with no signup or credit-card flow on the page, so no_cc_required is true. The page does not describe any paid plans, pricing tiers, free credits, or trials for CapRover itself; instead it describes how to install and run it on your own server. Because listing_type is given as always_free and there are no caps or paid upgrade gates shown for the software, free_tier_value_usd_per_month is null and always_free_unbounded is true.
