VibeDeploy vs Netlify
Netlify defined the modern static-hosting workflow and still executes it well. The reasons to look at VibeDeploy instead are structural, not cosmetic: hosting under EU jurisdiction, flat plans with no overage line items, and an MCP deploy path built for AI-generated sites.

When Netlify is the better pick
- arrow_forwardHeavy use of Netlify Edge Functions, or Netlify's full Forms product (we include a simpler built-in forms relay)
- arrow_forwardExisting Netlify projects with substantial workflow investment
- arrow_forwardFree tier needs (their 100 GB bandwidth on Starter is generous)
When VibeDeploy wins
- check_circleEU jurisdiction over hosting and visitor data is a requirement, not a preference
- check_circleFinance wants a fixed monthly number instead of per-seat plus overage billing
- check_circleSites are AI-built and redeployed by agents, where MCP beats a Git-centric pipeline
- check_circleA GDPR DPA is needed on a normal plan, without an enterprise negotiation
- check_circleThe Netlify features in actual use are hosting and SSL, not edge functions
Common questions
Does VibeDeploy support Netlify Functions?expand_more
No. Netlify Edge Functions are a Netlify-specific runtime. If your site depends on them, stay on Netlify. If you only use them for tiny utilities like form handlers, those can move to a separate API and the static site moves to VibeDeploy.
How does the free tier compare?expand_more
Netlify's free tier has more bandwidth (100 GB vs our trial limits). Our paid plans start at €15/month with 10 GB and scale up. We offer a 14-day free trial rather than a permanent free tier; for paid plans, we're competitive at moderate scale.
Can I migrate from Netlify?expand_more
Yes, easily. The build artefact (dist/, build/, out/) is the same shape. Drag it to VibeDeploy or connect the same Git repo. Custom domain transfers via standard CNAME.
Why does EU hosting matter?expand_more
GDPR compliance is meaningfully easier when the host is in the EU. EU customers can sign a standard DPA without enterprise sales. Personal data stays inside EU jurisdiction.
