Hi HN,

This is Isaac, co-founder of Leapcell(https://leapcell.io/). Leapcell is a serverless hosting platform that helps you ship all your APIs & websites online at minimal cost.

We built Leapcell with a simple idea: your code, APIs, and websites should be online without paying for idle time - you should only pay for the value you get.

# The Problem of Traditional Cloud/VPS

- Traditional cloud/VPS pricing is inefficient - You pay for uptime, but most of the time (80%+) your server is idle. This doesn't align with the actual value you get. - High deployment costs limit innovation - Developers only deploy what has clear monetary value, but there's a lot of useful code that never gets online due to cost barriers.

# The Leapcell Solution

We built a serverless, distributed application platform that lets you: - Deploy instantly - Push your code and get a live URL in seconds. - Pay only for usage - No idle costs, aligned with actual usage. - Built-in primitives - Serverless Redis (for distributed state), async tasks, and more. - User Analytics - See real-time interactions with your app.

# Who is Leapcell for?

Leapcell is for any project, whether it's a side project, MVP, or hobby project. Leapcell can host and support it as it grows - all the way to IPO if needed.

We'd love your feedback!
