Build fast. Run any code fearlessly.

Fly.io is a cloud compute platform that lets developers deploy applications, run AI-generated code in isolated sandboxes, and scale to millions of users without complex infrastructure setup. It offers hardware-virtualized containers (Fly Machines) that launch instantly and run only when needed, along with fast local NVMe storage and built-in private networking. The platform targets developers who want to ship quickly across 18 global regions with sub-100ms response times.
