Deploy Your Own Discourse Forum in Minutes
Automated cloud provisioning for self-hosted Discourse. No DevOps required. Choose your region, configure your settings, and go live.
How It Works
1. Configure
Choose your subdomain, server region, and instance size. Add SMTP credentials for email delivery. Set your admin email.
2. Provision
We create a cloud server on Hetzner, install Discourse, configure SSL via Let's Encrypt, and set up DNS. Takes about 10-15 minutes.
3. Go Live
Your forum is ready. Log in as admin, customize your community, invite members, and start conversations. Full SSH access included.
Transparent Pricing
Pay only for the cloud server. Hetzner pricing passed through directly — no markup.
