Interesting launch. Last month for Producthunt hackathon I was planning to create something similar by using openfaas, but did not(just like many other ideas/side projects we all have here :-)). One questions that bothered me a lot was how to define pricing for such product?

Would you be able to throw some light on how you/your team came up with the sustainable plan and pricing you have?

Hi Sharma!

The basic idea in terms of pricing was low cost and low maintenance for low traffic things: when someone is not running anything substantial even 10 quid a month feels like a waste.

And then when you start to have multiple side projects, you might need multiple servers (or set up more complex things like port forwarding based on domain etc)

So that's how it came about. But we are sure it's not sustainable entirely yet! We would just like to provide low cost and low hassle hosting. Let's see how it goes.
