Ship Claude Code Projects Free — No Setup
Add Hatchable as a Claude Code connector. Then just tell Claude to deploy — you get a live URL, database, and auth, free.
What happens next
Open the connector modal
The button above opens claude.ai with the Hatchable connector pre-filled. Click Add to install — Claude.ai and Claude Code share connectors, so it works in both.
Sign in to Hatchable
Claude opens a Hatchable OAuth tab. No account yet? This signs you up — free, no card, no credits.
Tell Claude to deploy
Ask Claude: "Build a CRM and deploy it on Hatchable." Claude calls Hatchable's MCP tools and returns a live {slug}.hatchable.site URL in under a minute.
https://hatchable.com/mcp
What you get on the free tier
- A live URL at
{slug}.hatchable.site— published the moment Claude callsdeploy. - Postgres database. Auth. File storage. Scheduled jobs. All wired up — no config files.
- Free forever for personal projects. No surprise paywalls, no expiring credits.
- Want your own domain? That\'s on the Builder plan ($12/mo). Free projects keep their
{slug}.hatchable.siteURL.
How this is different from deploying to Vercel or Replit
Vercel and Replit are great products for a different shape of work. The difference is where the build happens:
- Vercel — you push code from a repo. Great if you write code by hand. Less helpful if your AI is the one writing the code, because you still have to round-trip through git, framework configs, environment variables, and deploy logs.
- Replit — a full in-browser IDE with its own AI. Great if you want everything in one tab. Less helpful if you already use Claude Code and want to keep using it.
- Hatchable — Claude Code stays in your terminal. Hatchable is the deploy target it talks to over MCP. There is no build step, no framework config, no
npm run build. Source files are production.
Your code stays yours
Real, portable source: standard Node + Postgres, no proprietary framework, no build step. Every deploy is a real git commit you can browse and roll back in the console. Your code, no lock-in.
