What is on record

The SST catalogue entry carries no price, but no tier breakdown. The category comparison below is still useful, and the SST review carries the full feature record.

What the product covers

The full SST feature record, grouped as the catalogue groups it. This is the product as a whole; the record does not map every feature onto a specific tier.

Core

Single config file
Resource linking

Development

Local development
VPC tunneling

Infrastructure

Multi-cloud support

Deployment

Multiple deployment stages

People bring SST in for deploying next.js frontends with serverless backends, managing databases and storage alongside application code, creating staging environments for feature testing. If that is not the job you are buying for, the alternatives to SST are worth a look before you commit to a tier.

How that compares in Cloud

Too few cloud tools in this directory publish a starting price to quote a meaningful median, so the table below is a like-for-like list rather than a ranking.

SST entry price against other Cloud tools

Ratings are aggregated from third-party sources and imported with each catalogue entry, they are not reviews hosted on Softwr. How each figure is used is set out on the SST badges page.

Before you pay for SST

Three things this page cannot tell you, and all three change the bill. The record carries a price and a billing period but not the unit - per-seat and flat-rate pricing are indistinguishable in this data, so a five-person team may be looking at five times the figure above. It carries no annual rate, so any discount for paying yearly is not something this page can quote. And it carries no trial length.

What it can tell you is the shape of the ladder: not published on the record we hold. Because there is a free tier, the cheapest way to answer the rest is to use it before paying anything.

SST runs on aws, cloudflare, node.js, and is published by SST. The full record is on the SST review, and the rest of the category is under best cloud tools.
