Koyeb vs Northflank

Our take

Pick Koyeb if teams who will start on Pro at $29/month plus the $10 included compute while they deploy a first service, then move to Scale at $299/month when they need 50 users, $100 included compute, and a 99.9% SLA. Pick Northflank if app teams who will stay on Sandbox at $0 (2 services, 2 jobs, 1 database, $20 of Cloud resources, no seat fee) while they ship a first project canvas, then move to Pay as you go when
