Server Compass
Vercel-like deploys to your VPS. Nothing installed on it.·servercompass.app
Server Compass is a desktop application for macOS, Windows, and Linux that lets users deploy applications to their own VPS via SSH without using a terminal. It provides a visual interface for Docker-based deployments, domain and SSL management, database administration, monitoring, security hardening, and self-hosted AI model management (e.g. Ollama). It positions itself as a self-hosted, one-time-purchase alternative to PaaS platforms like Vercel, Heroku, Railway, and Render, storing all credentials and configs locally on the user's machine.
