Global edge without the ops tax
Native git-push deploys with built-in observability. No Docker expertise required. No pay-per-byte surprises.
Simpler deployment workflow
Fly.io requires Docker, flyctl CLI, and GitHub Actions for CI/CD. Temps gives you native git-push deploys out of the box.
Built-in observability
Fly.io offers Prometheus metrics but needs Sentry, PostHog, and Pingdom for full observability. Temps includes all four tools built-in.
Transparent pricing
Fly.io bills per-second for CPU, memory, volumes, egress, and IPv4 addresses. Temps Cloud is a flat ~$6/mo with everything included.
No vendor lock-in
Fly.io's edge networking and Firecracker VMs create migration friction. Temps is open-source and runs on any server.
