Your engineering team is growing. Your ops capacity isn't. Convox gives every developer on your team the ability to deploy to production AWS without waiting on a single ops person or hiring a DevOps engineer. One convox deploy command handles builds, rollouts, and infrastructure.
Unlike Render, Railway, and Fly.io, Convox deploys into your own AWS account. You own the VPC, the instances, and the data. When enterprise customers ask where their data lives, the answer is your AWS account — not a shared PaaS environment.
Define your web services, workers, databases, environment variables, scaling rules, and health checks in a single convox.yml. Any engineer can read it, modify it, and deploy it. No Terraform, no Helm charts, no Kubernetes YAML.
Start simple with deployment and scaling. When you need HIPAA, SOC 2, or FedRAMP compliance, Convox already supports it — no migration required. Teams that start on Convox at 15 engineers are still on Convox at 75.
Render feels right at 5 engineers. At 20, you need VPC peering, custom IAM, and compliance controls. Self-managed k8s is the traditional next step — and it requires dedicated headcount. Convox gives you AWS-native depth with PaaS simplicity. No cliff.
Convox charges a flat platform fee. You pay AWS directly for compute at their published rates. No hidden markups, no per-dyno pricing that scales faster than your revenue. Your CFO gets a predictable infrastructure line item.
