Qovery vs Wayfinder

Qovery is a Kubernetes control plane that runs on customers’ infrastructure and is designed for use by people and AI agents. It supports deployments on Kubernetes, AWS, Google Cloud, Scaleway, and Azure, with capabilities including GitOps, preview environments, rolling releases, rollback, and approval gates. Its documentation describes real-time logs, metrics, and Kubernetes events without setup. Qovery says its eight AI agent skills work across more than 30 tools, including Claude Code, OpenAI Codex, Gemini CLI, Cursor, and VS Code Copilot. The MCP Server starts in read-only mode; writes require enabling access in both a connection setting and a separate Console setting, and actions appear in an audit trail. Qovery says customer workloads, secrets, and application data stay in the customer’s cloud account. It reports encryption in transit and at rest, regular third-party penetration tests, and compliance coverage including SOC 2 Type II, HIPAA, GDPR, and DORA. Annual plans are listed at $299.00 per month for Team, $899.00 per month for Growth, and $2,999.00 per month for Business. Plans have deployment-minute allowances, and unused minutes do not roll over.

Wayfinder is an agentic software development lifecycle platform that runs in a customer's own cloud. Teams can deploy applications to AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, or Kubernetes from a wayfinder.yaml file using wf up. Its agents can generate Cloud Resource Plans, create Stack Definitions from a repository, run AI deployments, and answer users through chat, the CLI, or an IDE. Plans are checked in the customer's cloud account against its policies before catalogue publication. Wayfinder describes per-workload OIDC federation for AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud without static cloud keys at runtime, along with hierarchical role-based access, SSO, workspace-scoped tokens, and an exportable audit stream that includes agent actions. Secret storage uses envelope encryption through AWS KMS, Azure Key Vault, or local encryption for self-hosted deployments. Integrations include cloud and Kubernetes services, Terraform, OpenTofu, Helm, Anthropic Claude, and Google Gemini. A free plan provides one production Kubernetes cluster and one seat. Starter costs £399/mo; Professional costs £2,499/mo. Enterprise pricing is custom and has an annual contract. Appvia is identified as the maker.
