## What it is
Openship is an open-source, self-hostable deployment platform with built-in CI/CD that builds, ships, routes, and TLS-terminates apps from a git push. It offers a web dashboard, CLI, desktop app, and MCP interface for AI agents, with managed databases, edge routing, and one-click rollbacks.

## Use cases
- self-host a paas like heroku on my own vps
- push-to-deploy from github without writing dockerfiles or yaml
- deploy a full stack with postgres and redis on my homelab
- manage deployments from an ai agent via mcp
- get automatic ssl and custom domains for my apps
- roll back a bad deploy in one click
- run cron jobs and webhooks alongside my app

## When to choose
- you want to own your deployment infrastructure instead of renting from a big provider
- you want zero-config deploys across many languages and monorepos
- you need managed databases, mail, and object storage bundled with your apps
- you want to drive deployments from a CLI, dashboard, desktop app, or AI agent

## When to avoid
- you need Kubernetes-scale orchestration with multi-cluster scheduling
- you are fully committed to an existing managed cloud like Vercel or Heroku
- you only deploy static sites and don't need servers or databases
- you require Windows servers as deployment targets
