Question 1

What is wanno?

Accepted Answer

A platform that deploys any app in seconds: drag & drop a folder, .zip or GitHub repo and it goes live on its own URL in a real VM. It then gives you everything the app needs to stay alive — custom domains, databases, metrics, a firewall, feature flags, prompt A/B testing, serverless functions and AI agents.

Question 2

Which stacks can I deploy?

Accepted Answer

Node.js (18–22, including Next.js, Vite, React, Express), Python 3.11 (Django, Flask, FastAPI), Go 1.22 and plain static sites. The stack, install command, start command and port are detected automatically.

Question 3

How fast is a deploy?

Accepted Answer

Static sites are live in seconds; typical Node, Python or Go apps are live in about a minute, including dependency install. Repeat deploys are faster thanks to shared build caches.

Question 4

Can I get a deployment per pull request?

Accepted Answer

Yes — one command (wanno github scaffold) drops a GitHub Actions workflow into your repo. Every PR gets a live deployment URL commented automatically, and it is torn down when the PR closes.

Question 5

Is wanno free?

Accepted Answer

Yes — wanno is free for every Google account: deploy apps at no cost, with $1 of free AI credit to try the builder and agents. Premium features (permanent URLs, custom domains, serverless functions, object storage, managed databases) unlock when you add prepaid credits, starting at $5 — pay as you go, no subscription.

Question 6

Do I get real infrastructure access?

Accepted Answer

Every deploy runs in its own Firecracker microVM with full root access: a real shell, logs, metrics, snapshots, environment variables, a firewall and optional permanent URLs with custom domains.

Question 7

Can I build an AI chatbot?

Accepted Answer

Yes — the AI Bot Maker lets you design a chatbot or agent visually, or generate the whole flow from a prompt. Attach a knowledge base of .txt/.md files it answers from, then deploy it to its own live chat URL and connect it to WhatsApp, Slack and Telegram.

Question 8

Does wanno give me a database?

Accepted Answer

Yes — spin up a managed Postgres database in one click and get a connection string, or have it injected into your VM automatically. A read-only table and row browser is built into the dashboard.

Question 9

Can I deploy serverless functions?

Accepted Answer

Yes — a single JS or TS file becomes a live HTTPS endpoint on its own scale-to-zero VM that wakes on request. Functions support per-token auth and edit-and-redeploy from the dashboard.

Question 10

Does wanno include object storage?

Accepted Answer

Yes — S3-style buckets for files, images and uploads. Grant a project read or write access and the credential is injected into its environment automatically; share objects with presigned URLs or make a bucket public for direct embedding.

Question 11

Does my app stay alive when idle?

Accepted Answer

Permanent projects keep a stable URL and scale to zero when idle, waking automatically on the next request — or mark them always-on so they never sleep. Sleeping apps don't consume credits.
