Macaly Cloud is an infrastructure and skills layer for your own AI agent. Add it to Claude, ChatGPT or Grok Bot — the product also works in Claude Code, Codex and Grok Bot — and you can build apps and websites with a database, hosting, a domain and 70+ other skills without leaving the chat or terminal you already use. It is made for people who already pay for an AI subscription and want the code their agent writes to become something real and live on the internet, instead of managing a stack of separate services themselves.
Anyone who has tried vibe coding outside a single tool runs into the same wall. Tools such as Lovable and Base44 charge AI credits for every message, so when you already have Claude, ChatGPT or Grok Bot, paying for a second AI subscription makes no sense. The do-it-yourself route is no cheaper: hosting at around $20 a month, a database at around $25 a month, a domain at $15 a year, plus a Saturday spent on CI/CD and a Sunday on environment variables. That adds up to two bills, two AI agents, two subscriptions, charged twice — and the project still needs a database, user accounts, SEO metadata and API keys before it can go live. Macaly Cloud exists to remove that collection of separate purchases and configuration work, packaging the parts a project needs into the agent workflow you are already using.
The database is one of the clearest examples. Normally it is a separate service with its own subscription; with Macaly Cloud it is created the moment the code needs it, and it is tested by your agent first. The result is a managed Postgres database sitting behind the app, without the database bill that usually comes with it. Hosting, previews and a live address work the same way. Elsewhere you would buy a hosting plan and spend a weekend configuring it; here every change produces a preview link, and one message puts it live on your own macaly.app address at no cost. A custom domain is described as the one thing nobody can hand out for free: you can buy one through Macaly or connect one you already own, and Macaly handles the records and the certificate.
User accounts are provided out of the box, without you having to build authentication — described on the site as the thing every platform charges for and every DIY builder gets wrong. Google sign-in, email or one-time codes are available without extra development work, which means a project that needs real users does not stall on login screens and password resets. SEO is included in every build as well: metadata, server-side rendering and favicons, indexable from day one, with no plugin sold as an upsell. That matters because sites built inside chat tools or vibe coding platforms often ship without the technical foundations search engines need, and fixing that afterwards is tedious.
AI features can also become features of your own app without API keys. Chatbots, summaries, image and video generation, even voice, all of them are part of your project with nothing to sign up for and no separate bill. On top of that, Macaly Cloud ships 70+ skills your agent can pick up mid-conversation, including email, analytics, payments, voice, plus connections to the tools you already use. Because the agent picks skills up as the conversation continues, the project can grow in scope — from a page to a signup flow to a paid product — without you leaving the chat to wire up another vendor.
The workflow itself is deliberately short and is described in three steps. First you connect: one click and a sign-in is the whole setup. Then you ask: you say what you want and your agent builds it. Then you publish: you say publish and it is on the internet. Macaly Cloud is not a replacement for the model writing the code — Claude, ChatGPT or Grok Bot writes the code, while Macaly Cloud provides everything needed to make the project real. You keep working in the chat or the terminal you already use, describing what you want to build, and the agent builds the app, wires up the database and puts it online.
Because the infrastructure and the skills arrive as one service, users keep the AI subscription they already pay for instead of adding a second one. On the comparison the site draws, message credits, coding, database, hosting, domain, previews, publishing, debugging and agent skills are all listed at $0.00 within Macaly Cloud, leaving only the bill you already pay. The source code and all of the data remain yours, and you can export them at any time. Everything is hosted on European infrastructure, in Frankfurt and Ireland, and Macaly states that it is GDPR compliant and never uses your content to train AI models.
Concrete scenarios follow directly from those capabilities. A landing page can be described in the chat and published to a macaly.app address in the same conversation. A signup form can be built together with user accounts, using Google sign-in, email or one-time codes, without building authentication from scratch. An app that needs to store data gets a managed Postgres database created when the code needs it. A tool that summarises or generates content can include chatbots, summaries, image and video generation or voice as features of the app itself, without API keys. A site that needs to be found can ship with metadata, server-side rendering and favicons from the first build. And when something needs to change — put it back how it was, or rebuild a page — that happens through another message in the same chat.
Macaly Cloud is aimed at anyone who already has a Claude, ChatGPT or Grok Bot subscription and wants to turn what the agent writes into a live project. That includes individual builders, teams and agencies; the site notes that teams, agencies and anything bigger than the standard plan are handled by a person rather than a form, reachable at hi@macaly.com for a custom plan. The tech stack is handled for you: your agent builds on a modern web stack with React and Next.js on the front end and a managed Postgres database behind it, and you never have to pick, install or configure any of it. Pricing is free until October 1st, including a database with a free base allowance, hosting, previews, a macaly.app address, SEO, analytics and 70+ other skills, with some skills possibly still using Macaly AI credits. From October 1st, Macaly Cloud becomes a standalone plan at $10 a month, which covers the infrastructure.
In short, Macaly Cloud turns the AI subscription you already pay for into a build-and-publish platform. Claude, ChatGPT or Grok Bot writes the code; Macaly Cloud supplies the database, hosting, previews, domain, user accounts, SEO, AI features and 70+ skills that make the project real, and it does so inside the chat you are already using — for free until October 1st, then $10 a month.
