Part 01 · Overview

Welcome

What it is, who it suits, its grades and the ten things to know first

2.4

GPA, above 99 of the 122 other web hosts we grade

Deno Deploy runs JavaScript and TypeScript applications, including Node.js and common frameworks, on serverless infrastructure with usage-based allowances for requests, bandwidth, CPU time and storage. The company has announced it is joining Cloudflare and that Deno Deploy will shut down about six months after that announcement.

To get you started, here are 9 things to know about Deno Deploy, taken from its own pages and our grades.

You write and deploy code, so it is for developers, and the listing shows no rating or no-code route.
From our grade for ease of use
  1. 1

    Best for JavaScript and TypeScript apps, for now

    Deno Deploy runs JavaScript and TypeScript apps, with a free plan of 1M requests a month.

  2. 2

    Paid plans start at $20 a month

    As its pricing page puts it: $20 per month (Pro).

  3. 3

    There is a free plan

    1M requests a month, 20 GiB egress, 10 active CPU hours, 10 apps, 5 custom domains and 3 team members.

  4. 4

    It runs on Web

    Web.

  5. 5

    JavaScript and TypeScript apps

    Runs apps built with Deno, Node and frameworks such as Next.js, Astro, Nuxt, SvelteKit, Remix and Fresh.

  6. 6

    Usage-based allowances

    Each plan includes requests, egress, active CPU hours and memory time, with overage rates such as $0.20 per GiB of egress on paid plans.

  7. 7

    Deno KV and database links

    A managed KV store is built in, and apps can link to Postgres or Prisma databases, with an isolated database clone for each pull request.

  8. 8

    A 2.4 GPA, above 99 of 122

    That is against the other web hosts we grade, on value, the free plan, features, ease of use and platforms.

  9. 9

    Keep it

    To replace Deno Deploy you would be making connections to other products, each kept working as those products change. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one.

The report card

Best for JavaScript and TypeScript apps, for now

Deno Deploy runs JavaScript and TypeScript apps, with a free plan of 1M requests a month. Its own pricing page says it will be sunset in April 2027, so a new project would have to plan a move.

ToolGPA report cardDeno DeployGraded Nov 13, 2026
SubjectGradeComment
Value for moneyCPro is $20 a month, at the top of the ordinary range for web hosting. Builder is $200 a month, and requests past the allowance are $2 per million.
Free plan and trialBThe free plan allows 1M requests a month, 20 GiB egress, 10 apps and 5 custom domains, which one person could live on.
FeaturesCRuns JS and TS apps with KV and database links, observability and local tunnels. It covers only that runtime, and the service is being wound down.
Ease of useCYou write and deploy code, so it is for developers, and the listing shows no rating or no-code route.
Platforms and integrationsBWeb only, with database links and a few integrations on the listing.
Grade point averageFair, out of 4.02.4

An A is worth 4 points, a B 3, a C 2, a D 1 and an F nothing. The GPA is the average of the five.

Who Deno Deploy is for

  • Fits if you already write Deno or TypeScript and want a small app live
  • Works for experiments you can move later

Who it is not for

  • Skip it if you want a home for something long-lived: the pricing page says Deno Deploy will be sunset in April 2027
  • Watch out: Deno announced on 9 October 2026 that its team is joining Cloudflare, and Deploy runs six months before shutting down
  • Not for you if you do not write JavaScript or TypeScript, as it hosts nothing else
  • Tight if you stay free and need email support, which starts on Pro at $20 a month

Good to know

Good for

  • Small JavaScript or TypeScript apps that fit the free allowances
  • Existing Deno Deploy users planning their move to another host
  • Short-lived projects that will not outlast the shutdown

Worth knowing

  • Deno Deploy will be sunset in April 2027, according to the banner on its pricing page; new projects should plan a move.
  • Deno announced on October 9, 2026 that its team is joining Cloudflare, and that Deploy runs for six months before shutting down.
  • Paid customers are offered migration support to Cloudflare Workers.
  • Email support starts on the Pro plan, and the free plan has community support only.

Keep it, or make your own?

Whether this is something you could build for yourself with an AI app builder, and what you would give up.

Keep it

To replace Deno Deploy you would be making connections to other products, each kept working as those products change. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one.

It is one of the better ones too: its GPA of 2.4 is higher than 99 of the 122 other web hosts we grade. It costs $240 a year.

What you could not

  • Connections to other products, each kept working as those products change.
  • Databases with views, filters and links between them.

What this rests on. Deno Deploy’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.
