A roadmap memo
From: Jan Peter
The plan
You're early. That's the point.
The wait between now and mid-2026 is when the work happens — the slow, careful kind that makes day one actually worth showing up for. The waitlist is how you get in line. It's also how you get a say in what we ship.
-
Now
Building.
In public, on The Log.
-
Mid‑2026

Small cohort. Hands‑on onboarding.

Late 2026
Open access.
Self‑serve onboarding.
-
2027

~ Mid-2026
From: Jan Peter, strackt.io
Subject: Your invite to strackt early access
Founding cohort
Four things you get for being early.
-
i
An invite when early access opens.
We'll email you when it's your turn. Invites go out in small batches so onboarding stays hands-on.
-
ii
A direct line during onboarding.
Stuck? Email me. Confused by something? Tell me. The first cohort gets my full attention.
-
iii
Your feedback shapes v1.
Founding-cohort input is what turns v1 into something worth using. You'll see your suggestions ship.
-
iv
Your first app is on us.
Free for everyone, founding cohort or not — the standard offer. See pricing.
Honest scope
What v1 does. What it doesn't.
We name what we support. No vague promises.
At launch
- Connect any VPS — Hetzner, DigitalOcean, Vultr, AWS, Linode.
- Deploy Laravel apps from Git, with stack auto‑detection.
- Apply security patches automatically. Continuously.
- Roll back any change in seconds. Rebuild from blueprint in minutes.
- Flat-rate, per-application pricing. €4/app. First app free.
Not yet
- WordPress, Statamic, Next.js — coming after Laravel is solid.
- Multi-region failover — not in v1.
- Custom build steps — opinionated defaults at launch.
- Bring-your-own-Kubernetes — not the audience we're building for.
- SLA commitments — come at GA in 2027.
A note from the founder
I'm building strackt alone. The way I want to ship it means going slow enough to get things right — safety, reliability, and respect for your infrastructure aren't features I want to bolt on later.
The first cohort will be small. Hands-on onboarding. Real conversations. You'll have my full attention while we figure out together what works and what doesn't.
The people who join early are the people I'll learn the most from — and the platform will be better because of you.
— Jan Peter
Before you sign up
Frequently asked.
- Is the waitlist binding?
No. We email you when it's your turn. You decide whether to accept.
- Will I be charged in advance?
No. Your first app is free. Beyond that, you only pay once you're actively running apps you want managed.
- What if the launch slips?
You'll hear it from me first, on The Log. No silent slips.
- Can I get in earlier?
Probably not. The first cohort needs the platform to actually be ready. The waitlist is the way in.
- Do I need a VPS already?
No. You can wait until you have an invite, then bring any VPS from any provider. Don't have one yet? Layover is a temporary strackt-managed server you can use while you set yours up.
- What stack at launch?
Laravel. Other frameworks come after Laravel is solid. See how it works.
- How are invites sent?
By email, in small batches. Earlier signups get earlier invites — first in, first served.
