Public roadmap

What we’re building next

A look at the next three months of Hydron — the features we’re committing to, why they’re on the list, and the order they’ll land in. No exact dates; just an honest order of operations.

Active now — shipping early in the period

ReliabilityShipping soon#zero-downtime-deploys

Zero-downtime rolling deploys

Every Hydron deploy will swap containers in place — the new version goes live and proves itself healthy before the old one shuts down. No more 502s during release windows, no more reload-and-pray.

Why we’re building it

If your users see a 502 every time you ship, you aren't really shipping continuously. Zero-downtime is table stakes for production — every Heroku, Render, and Railway alternative has it, and so should we.

Best for
Customer-facing applicationsHigh-traffic APIsTeams that deploy multiple times a day
Next · Up next2 items in this stage

Queued — starts once "Now" lands

Teams & collaborationUp next#team-accounts

Team accounts with shared billing & roles

Multiple developers, one billing account, the right permissions per person. Invite your team, set roles, and stop juggling shared logins.

Why we’re building it

Hydron stops being a tool and starts being a platform the moment a teammate wants in. Teams should never have to share passwords, and your bill shouldn't depend on which person clicked Deploy.

Best for
Teams of 3–15 developersAgencies managing client deploymentsAnyone who wants a deploy log instead of a Slack thread
AI agent surfaceUp next#mcp-server

MCP server — deeper agent control over Hydron

Expand the Model Context Protocol server so any AI coding agent — Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, anything that speaks MCP — can drive a complete Hydron deployment end-to-end without ever leaving the editor.

Why we’re building it

If an AI agent is doing the building, it should also be able to do the shipping. Hydron's MCP server is the bridge — making sure no operation requires breaking out of the AI workflow you're already in.

Best for
Claude Code, Cursor, Codex & Aider usersTeams running agentic dev loopsAnyone building on top of the Hydron API

Bigger bets — back half of the period

Migration & onboardingLater this period#migration-assistant

Vercel / Heroku / Render migration assistant

Point Hydron at your current host. We'll read your build settings, environment variables, and add-ons (Postgres, Redis, ...), generate the matching Hydron configuration, and walk you through database transfer and DNS cutover.

Why we’re building it

Migrating off a managed platform usually takes days of manual config rebuilding. Most of that work is mechanical — exactly the kind of thing AI should do for you. Even a semi-automated assistant turns days of work into hours.

Vercel, Heroku, Render, and Railway customersTeams whose bill outgrew the convenienceAnyone who wants out without a re-platforming project

How we plan

The principles behind this roadmap

Why these five items, in this order, and not something else.

Production trust before new surface area

Reliability features come ahead of net-new product. We’d rather make the deploys you already do feel boring and safe than add a new toy you can’t depend on.

Honest pricing, in public

If you can’t price Hydron without talking to us, we’ve already failed. The pricing page lives on the public web with real numbers and the math behind them.

Teams & agencies are first-class users

Hydron is built for the person shipping the app — and for the team standing behind them. Multi-user accounts aren’t an enterprise tier, they’re a default.

Migration is the unlock

Most people moving to Hydron are coming from somewhere else. The cost of getting in shouldn’t outweigh the cost of staying put — so we’re investing heavily in tooling that meets you where you are.

FAQ

Roadmap questions, answered

Because you deserve to know what you’re buying into. Hydron is something you put your production traffic on; you should be able to see — before you commit — whether the features you need are days, weeks, or quarters away. A roadmap is a commitment we can be held to.
Dates on software roadmaps are almost always wrong, and when they slip they make things worse. Instead, we publish an honest order of operations: 1 items in "Now" we’re actively shipping, 2 in "Next" once those land, and 1 larger items in "Later" for the back end of the period.
The next three months of Hydron development. The page is refreshed as items ship and as the next set comes into focus, so it should always reflect what’s genuinely on deck — not a 12-month wishlist.
Items that unblock the most users move up. Reliability work and pricing transparency block every user, so they go first. Team accounts are blocked by anyone bringing a teammate. Migration tooling unlocks the largest single group of new users — anyone leaving Vercel, Heroku, Render, or Railway — and is the biggest investment, so it’s scoped accordingly.
Yes, please. The fastest path is the contact form. Specific, concrete asks tied to a real workflow you’re running carry the most weight — they’re what shaped this roadmap in the first place.
This roadmap is intentionally short. Five focused items the team can actually finish well beats fifteen we half-ship. Items not listed are either already live (see the docs), or they’re on the longer-horizon list and will surface here when their time comes.
No — but it’s the same plan we’re working against internally, in the same priority order. We don’t maintain two versions of reality. If something on this list changes, this page changes with it.
