Worth knowing

The allowance covers custom Actor execution, not unlimited compute. Standby documentation supports HTTP/MCP endpoints, but Free Standby entitlement is not explicitly confirmed, so MCP hosting is not marked verified here. Standby uses token-gated access and idle-stop behavior. Model APIs, paid Actors and storage consume separate or additional costs.

How we match

Choose the kind of thing you made and the features you need. The results respond to the capabilities recorded in our directory.

Each result explains its fit or mismatch. Unverified commercial-use permission is marked for a terms check. Unknown free features don’t count as confirmed fits.

Apps can run in the browser, as serverless functions, or on a persistent server. The second step changes with your choice: web pages or file links for sites and files, runtime options for apps. For agents and tools, choose an agent service, MCP server, or code sandbox. A sandbox or serverless endpoint is not a continuously running process. In each group, select several to see hosts that support any selected option. Leave them blank to explore broadly; your agent can check the runtime before publishing. Docs & media candidates also need an exact file-format and size check. Commercial mode removes records with documented personal or non-production restrictions; it does not certify permission on other hosts.

Open a host to read its limits and sources. The agent brief packages your choices and those limits into instructions you can paste into your agent. It does not publish anything.

Each record has its own review date (October 11–12, 2026); deployments, privacy, support, and uptime have not been tested. There are no paid placements or affiliate links in this edition.
