Claude Code

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

Step 1

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.

Step 2

Sign in to Hatchable

Claude opens a Hatchable OAuth tab. No account yet? This signs you up — free, no card, no credits.

Step 3

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.

Connector URL — paste into Claude Code (Settings → Connectors)
https://hatchable.com/mcp

What you get on the free tier

  • A live URL at {slug}.hatchable.site — published the moment Claude calls deploy.
  • 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.site URL.

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.

Frequently asked

Do I need to install anything besides Claude Code?
No. Hatchable is a connector — Claude Code installs it over MCP. No CLI, no Docker, no local server.
Does it really cost nothing?
Yes for personal projects. The free tier covers reasonable traffic and storage; you only pay if you exceed it or want a paid plan for production workloads. No credit card to start.
Is my code locked in?
No. Standard Node + Postgres, no proprietary framework, and every deploy is a real git commit. Portable code you can take with you.
What if Claude makes a mistake while deploying?
Hatchable keeps every deploy as a git commit. Roll back with one click, or just ask Claude to fix it and redeploy.
Can I use my own Anthropic API key?
Yes — bring your own key in Settings → Capabilities. No markup, no quotas on top of yours.
Is there a build step?
No. Hatchable runs source files directly — no webpack, vite, or tsc. Claude writes plain JS/HTML/CSS that runs as-is. See the developer docs for the deploy-time rules.
