Laravel Cloud Pricing

Laravel Cloud, the upcoming deployment platform from the Laravel team, has revealed its pricing structure ahead of its February 24th, 2025 launch. The platform offers three distinct tiers designed to accommodate different project needs and scale requirements.

Sandbox Tier: Perfect for Side Projects

The Sandbox tier starts at $0 per month base cost, with pay-as-you-go pricing for resources:

• 3 users included
• Flex compute at approximately $5 per month
• Serverless PostgreSQL at $0.04 per hour + $1.50 per GB
• Caching service at roughly $7 per month
• Object storage at $0.02 per GB

A notable feature is the ability to scale resources to zero when unused, potentially helping developers save on costs for less active projects.

Production Tier: For Business Applications

Priced at $20 per month plus usage (with discounts), the Production tier includes:

• Custom domain support
• Auto-scaling capabilities
• Larger replica sizes
• Enhanced log retention
• Additional organization users
• All Sandbox features

Enterprise Tier: For Larger Organizations

The Enterprise tier includes advanced features such as:

• Unlimited auto-scaling
• Dedicated compute resources
• Advanced networking options
• Cross-product discounts
• SOC2 compliance
• Custom SLAs
• Direct sales support

Cost Optimization Features

One of the most interesting aspects is the platform's focus on cost optimization. For example, databases can be configured to hibernate after periods of inactivity (e.g., 300 seconds), waking up within milliseconds when needed. This feature could significantly reduce costs for projects with variable traffic patterns.

Delegate tasks. Get software.

Give Vroni a GitHub issue, bug report, spec, or rough idea. It reads the repo, plans the change, writes code, runs checks, and works toward a review-ready pull request.
