Deploy applications from Git

Connect a repository, choose a branch, and ship updates with logs, health checks, and domains in one place.

Run the services apps depend on

Add databases, automation tools, CMSs, and observability services from the built-in catalog instead of wiring them by hand.

Keep work organized by environment

Group workloads by environment so production, staging, and internal tools stay clear for the whole team.

Products

Start simple, then go deeper when your team needs more control.

Moltern keeps the common path clear for general users while still giving technical teams the deployment visibility and service workflows they need.

Applications

Deploy apps from Git

Connect a repository and ship updates with build logs, deployment history, domains, and environment-aware routing.

Services

Launch supporting infrastructure

Provision databases, internal tools, and production services from the built-in catalog without hand-writing charts or Compose files.

Environments

Organize work by environment

Keep production, staging, and team-specific workloads separated while still operating them from one workspace.

How it works

Simple for everyday users. Detailed when operators need it.

Moltern is built to keep the day-to-day workflow short while still exposing enough context to diagnose real production issues.

step 01

Create a workspace

Start with a default production environment, then add more environments when your team needs them.

step 02

Deploy an app or a service

Launch a Git-backed application, a one-click catalog service, or both inside the same workspace.

step 03

Operate from one control plane

Track deployments, open logs, attach domains, send webhooks, and recover from failures without leaving the product.

Service catalog

Real services your applications actually need.

From databases and automation to CMSs and monitoring, Moltern brings supporting services into the same workflow as your applications.

P PostgreSQL
PostgreSQL

Reliable open-source relational database. Deployed as an isolated ServiceInstance and auto-wired to dependent services at deploy time. Credentials are platform-generated — no password to remember.

R Redis
Redis

High-performance in-memory data store used as a cache and message broker. Deployed as an isolated ServiceInstance and auto-wired to dependent services. Data is ephemeral — reconstructible from the primary service.

For technical teams

Built on real platform primitives, not marketing shortcuts.

Moltern keeps the user workflow simple, but the platform underneath is designed for teams that still care about routing, recovery, secrets, and service dependencies.

Kubernetes-backed runtime

Moltern gives teams a simple control plane while the runtime stays grounded in real Kubernetes workloads and health-gated rollouts.

Real catalog services

The built-in catalog is driven by actual service definitions and platform-managed dependencies instead of marketing-only mock integrations.

Environment-aware operations

Applications, services, and deploy history all live against the same environment model so teams can reason about changes quickly.

Secrets, domains, and recovery

Store credentials per workspace, ship with generated URLs, add custom domains, and see clear recovery steps when a deployment fails.

FAQ

Questions teams ask before they move.

Who is Moltern for?

Teams that want a Heroku-style deployment workflow, but on infrastructure they control and with the supporting services their apps actually need.

What can I deploy today?

Git-backed applications plus a broad built-in catalog of databases, dev tools, CMSs, messaging systems, monitoring tools, and more.

Do I need to know Kubernetes?

No. Moltern is meant to hide the cluster mechanics from everyday users while still giving operators the detail they need when something goes wrong.

How do services fit with applications?

Applications and catalog services live in the same workspace and environments, so teams can deploy the app and the supporting stack together.

Ready

Move your app and the supporting stack into one workflow.

Create a workspace, start with a default production environment, deploy from Git, and add the services your team needs from the same product.
