Django app hosting with zero DevOps
Publish and Mortar runs the app for you — a real, always-on machine and database, HTTPS on day one, no server or Docker config to write.
What hosting includes
- ✓One click to publish — no Dockerfile, no server to provision.
- ✓Plans from $6/mo (Small) up to a Performance XL tier for heavier apps; pick the size, change it anytime.
- ✓A persistent database and file storage that survive redeploys.
- ✓Still fully yours: export the same Django project and self-host it elsewhere whenever you want — hosting here is convenience, not lock-in.
Frequently asked
Do I have to host on Mortar?
No — hosting is optional. Export the full Django project and run it on any provider; nothing about the app depends on Mortar.
What do hosting plans cost?
Flat monthly plans starting at $6/mo (Small), billed separately from build credits — a plain Stripe subscription per published app, upgradeable anytime as traffic grows.
Does it come with a database?
Yes — a real relational database and a persistent volume for files, both kept across redeploys and included in every plan.
Do I own the code Mortar generates?
Yes. Every project is a real Django repository you can export in full and run anywhere — there is no proprietary runtime and no vendor lock-in.
