Overview

Sevalla is Kinsta's platform for developers beyond WordPress. It groups four products that work together: application hosting (from Git or Docker, with automatic deploys on push and horizontal autoscaling), managed databases with private networking and daily backups, S3-compatible object storage built on Cloudflare R2, and static site hosting on a 260+ location edge network.

There are no tiers or seat fees. Applications and databases each start at $5 a month and scale with the resources you choose; object storage is $0.02 per GB with no egress fees. Static sites are free for up to 100 sites with 100 GB of bandwidth. Apps and databases come with a free trial rather than a permanent free tier.

Its 25 data center locations are more than most PaaS competitors offer, which helps if your users are outside the US and Western Europe. Sevalla lists SOC 2 Type 2 and ISO 27001, and offers an MCP server so AI agents can deploy and read logs with scoped permissions.

Pricing and plans

Free tier

Static site hosting is free: up to 100 sites, 1 GB per site, 100 GB bandwidth and 600 build minutes, under a fair use policy. Applications and databases have a free trial, not a free plan.

At the limit Not stated The vendor does not say what happens at the limit, or we have not found it yet.

Plan Price What you get
Static sites $0 100 sites, 100 GB bandwidth, 600 build minutes
Application hosting From $5/mo Git and Docker deploys, vertical, horizontal and auto-scaling
Database hosting From $5/mo 5 database types, private networking, daily backups
Object storage $0.02/GB-month S3-compatible, no ingress or egress fees, on Cloudflare R2

Sevalla has no plans or seats; you pay for each resource you run. The pricing page gives only starting prices for apps and databases, so larger instance sizes and bandwidth overage are not listed here. We did not confirm which five database engines are offered or the free trial's length.
