Canine has no write-up on Specifiction yet; its figures are above.

Coolify is an open-source, self-hostable deployment platform for websites, databases, web applications, and more than 280 one-click services. It builds each commit and deploys over SSH to a connected server. Projects can use Nixpacks, Railpack, Dockerfile, Docker Compose, static serving, or a prebuilt registry image. Push-to-deploy connections include GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket, and Gitea, including self-hosted instances. One-click databases include PostgreSQL, MySQL, MariaDB, MongoDB, Redis, KeyDB, Dragonfly, and ClickHouse. Operations include pull-request deployments, scheduled tasks, shared environment variables, monitoring, S3-compatible database backups, and rollbacks. An API and MCP server let AI clients such as Claude and Cursor manage resources, deployments, logs, and restarts. Coolify runs only on Linux; the documented minimum is 2 CPU cores, 2 GB RAM, and 10 GB disk. Self-hosted use is free forever. Cloud costs $5 a month plus $3 server.
