About
MDB GO / CLI is an open source deployment tool and hosting service that publishes apps from the command line. The landing page describes a workflow based on installing the MDB CLI, logging in, and running mdb publish to deploy projects to the internet.
The service supports free hosting for apps, websites, and databases, plus custom domains, SSL, SFTP, GitLab integration, starter templates, and one-click WordPress sites. The pricing page lists a free Hobby tier with 2 projects, 2 weeks container TTL, 500 MB RAM per project, 1 GB SFTP disk space, 1 database, 500 MB database size, and an MDB GO subdomain.

Free Tier Value
This free tier is genuinely usable for small projects, but it is capped on projects, container lifetime, RAM, storage, and database size, so it is not an uncapped forever plan. The closest paid step is the Professional tier, which adds unlimited projects and longer-lived containers plus bigger quotas; compared with that, the free offer looks worth about $3/month, roughly a quarter to a third of a modest paid plan.
