Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. CreateOS offers a generous free tier, modern infrastructure, and AI-assisted deployment — everything Heroku had before the free tier removal, plus decentralized compute and MCP integration.
No. CreateOS auto-detects your framework and build settings. If you have a Procfile, it works as-is. Most Heroku apps deploy without any configuration changes.
Export your Heroku database with pg_dump, create a managed Postgres database on CreateOS, and import with pg_restore. The whole process takes about 10 minutes.
CreateOS uses its own build system that auto-detects languages and frameworks. It supports the same languages (Node.js, Python, Ruby, Go, Rust, Java) without needing buildpacks.
