Install service
Get any self-hosted app installed for you
Want the privacy and savings of self-hosting without the weekend of debugging? Tell us the app and where it should run. You get a fixed quote within one working day, and a working install with HTTPS, backups and a runbook.
or email request@appsgit.com
- Fixed price, agreed before any work starts
- Docker Compose, HTTPS and a first backup included
- One week of follow-up support on every install
How it works
Three steps, no surprises
Step 1
Tell us what you want
Pick the app, say where it should run and how soon you need it. Two minutes, no account, no payment.
Step 2
Get a fixed quote
A real engineer replies within one working day with a price and any questions. Nothing starts until you approve it.
Step 3
We install and hand over
Docker Compose, your domain with HTTPS, a first backup and a short runbook so you can run it yourself from day one.

How we work on your server
- Temporary SSH key or a dedicated user you delete afterwards. Never your root password.
- Everything lives in a Compose file and a runbook you keep, so there is no lock-in to us.
- Secrets stay in an env file on your server. We do not keep copies of your data or credentials.
Prefer to do it yourself?
We publish 32 free step-by-step deploy guides and keep adding more. Popular apps people ask us to install:
Browse the deploy guidesWhich apps can you install?
Any open-source app listed on appsgit, and most that are not. Common requests are Immich, Nextcloud, n8n, Jellyfin, Vaultwarden, Home Assistant, Gitea, Paperless-ngx and Uptime Kuma. If an app has no Docker image we install it natively.
Do I need my own server?
No. If you do not have one yet we recommend a VPS that fits the app, usually from $4 to $12 a month, and set it up for you. If you already have a VPS, home server, NAS or Raspberry Pi, we work on that.
How much does it cost?
A single-app install starts at $79 and a multi-app stack with monitoring and backups starts at $199. Every job gets a fixed quote before work starts, and the quote includes a week of follow-up support.
How do you access my server?
Through a temporary SSH key or a user account you create for us and delete afterwards. We never ask for your root password, and we document every change in the runbook you receive at the end.
What if something breaks later?
Every install includes one week of follow-up support for anything we set up. After that you can ask for a fixed-price fix or a monthly maintenance plan, but most people run on their own with the runbook.
