Show HN: I Built a Non-AI Platform for Verified Deployment Scripts

2 pointsby superjose11 months ago
I&#x27;m a solopreneur who has bootstrapped five tech startups over the last 10 years (all of them have failed). I&#x27;ve hated the time I&#x27;ve spent uploading the apps...<p>Jesus Christ!<p>A couple of months back, I spent 21.4 hours trying to configure a minimum-permission automated deployment script with Docker, Go, and Cloud Run.<p>It was my first time with Google Cloud Run (I have past experience with AWS - EC2, SQS, DynamoDB, etc.).<p>I remember fighting long days to set up AWS… But it happened again with GCP:<p>1. Fragmented documentation 2. Lack of examples 3. Strange, obtuse errors 4. Setting up service accounts was a nightmare. No wonder people go for admin rights and call it a day. 5. ChatGPT and Gemini were dancing around like headless chickens.<p>No wonder wrapper services like Vercel are successful.<p>But, I don&#x27;t want wrapper services: - They don&#x27;t have what I need - They can become very expensive - They don&#x27;t give me control of the services I need (Escape Hatches)<p>Seeing this gap, I&#x27;m sharing a platform that does things differently:<p>- You manage your infrastructure (connect directly to the cloud provider) - Infrastructure code with tools like Pulumi is created for you. 100% verified. No AI hallucinations or sorcery. - Service accounts are created for you with minimum permissions - Pulumi is set up for you, connected with the deployment keys - The infrastructure will have all the dependent services chained together in the right order - It&#x27;s idempotent. Run the script as many times as you want with no duplicates or side effects - Deletes are a single command - You can use these scripts as learning tools or examples<p>I hope this can be useful to you as it is for me!<p>Jose<p>P.S. I&#x27;d love any feedback to make this product better!
