Our verdict on LaunchCloud
LaunchCloud hosts prototypes, dashboards, client deliverables, and other static content behind password or SSO protection. It is designed for teams that need to share work-in-progress projects through private URLs rather than expose them to public search engines. Deployments can come from static folders or builds, with web, CLI, MCP, and REST API workflows available. The platform is a focused fit for static sites and internal-facing content, not a general application infrastructure layer.
Pricing is organized across four monthly plans. Starter costs $0 per month and includes 1 publisher, 1 project, basic password authentication, and deletion after 30 days of inactivity. Basic costs $10 per month and adds unlimited projects while retaining 1 publisher, basic password authentication, and the same inactivity deletion policy. Teams costs $40 per month and adds unlimited publishers, Google Workspace authentication, and configurable project cleanup alongside unlimited projects. Enterprise costs $250 per month and adds SAML/SSO authentication to the Teams feature set. The progression is clear: paid tiers expand project and publisher capacity, strengthen identity controls, and provide more control over retention.
LaunchCloud’s strongest distinction is its combination of private access and deployment history. Immutable snapshots provide a record of deployments, while access revocation and credential rotation support ongoing control over shared projects. Teams and Enterprise can configure project retention instead of using the Starter and Basic deletion policy. Choose LaunchCloud when static prototypes, dashboards, or deliverables need controlled access and repeatable deployment workflows. Teams looking for containers, databases, autoscaling, or private networking should choose a platform built around those infrastructure needs instead.
