Managed Hosting & Infrastructure

We run your production and preview environments (Vercel, Neon and friends). A base management fee plus the dynamic pass-through of what the providers actually bill.

We run the production and preview environments your platform lives on — hosting, databases, domains, email delivery, backups and monitoring — so your team never has to think about a certificate renewal or a database running out of room. Every client gets separate environments, its own access controls and a Hosting tab in their MBSquared workspace showing what is deployed, where it runs and a live preview of each environment. Billing is a base management fee plus what the providers actually charge, passed through and itemized on your monthly invoice. Usage that sits inside a plan's allowance is shown as included and never invoiced.

What we run

Application hosting and preview deployments, managed Postgres with backups, DNS and domains, transactional email with proper sender authentication (SPF, DKIM, DMARC), error and uptime monitoring, and secrets kept out of the codebase. Each environment is documented, so you always know what exists and who can reach it.

How billing works

One management fee covers the operational work: deploys, upgrades, monitoring, incident response and a monthly review. Provider costs are collected per project and itemized on the invoice at what they cost. Usage inside a plan's allowance is shown for context and marked as included. Nothing auto-charges; invoices go out after review.

What you see

Your workspace's Hosting tab lists every deployment target with its status and last deploy, a live preview at desktop, tablet and phone widths, and the current period's costs for owners. If you ever want to move, environments, domains and data are handed over cleanly — no lock-in.

We host our own platform on the same stack we run for clients, so the monitoring, upgrades and cost tracking are ones we depend on ourselves.
