Koyeb

High-performance serverless infrastructure for APIs, inference, and databases

Overview

What Koyeb does

Koyeb is a serverless cloud platform designed for deploying and scaling intensive applications across over 50 global locations. The platform provides access to high-performance processors from AMD, Intel, and Nvidia while maintaining serverless simplicity with automatic scaling and sub-200ms cold starts. Developers deploy production-grade containers with zero configuration, scaling to hundreds of servers and back to zero in seconds. Koyeb supports multiple protocols including HTTP/2, WebSocket, and gRPC natively, provides instant API endpoints, and includes serverless Postgres with pgvector for embedding storage. The platform excels at AI inference, fine-tuning, AI agents, SaaS platforms, and distributed systems deployment. With built-in zero-downtime deployments, automatic health checks, and a global CDN with load-balancing, Koyeb combines ease of use with the performance requirements of modern applications.

Softwr does not host reviews and shows no star rating for Koyeb, because a rating we did not collect is not ours to publish. What is here is the pricing and platform detail from the vendor’s own pages, limitations we could state concretely, and alternatives a reviewer confirmed people weigh against it.
