About PocketHost

Our Journey

PocketHost was founded in 2021 by Ben Allfree, a passionate developer seeking a more efficient way to manage PocketBase instances. Frustrated with the repetitive task of setting up PocketBase every time he started a new project, Ben created PocketHost to simplify this process not only for himself but for developers everywhere.

Open Source Commitment

We believe in the power of collaboration and transparency. PocketHost is a completely open-source project licensed under the MIT License. This means you can inspect, modify, and contribute to the codebase, fostering a community-driven platform that continually evolves to meet the needs of its users.

Growth and Community

Since its inception, PocketHost has grown organically to serve over 10,000 users worldwide. This incredible growth reflects our commitment to providing a simple, reliable, and efficient hosting solution for indie hackers, makers, and small businesses.

Technology and Innovation

• Docker Containerization: We utilize a Docker containerized architecture to ensure isolation and security for each project hosted on our platform.
• Dynamic Resource Allocation: Our innovative approach allows us to run thousands of instances on a single Virtual Private Server (VPS). This efficient use of resources ensures optimal performance and scalability for all users.

Special Thanks

We extend our heartfelt gratitude to Gani at PocketBase for his unwavering support and invaluable advice. His contributions have been instrumental in shaping PocketHost into the robust platform it is today.
