# SeeDropHost compared with Netlify, Vercel, Cloudflare and others

Checked against the code on 2026-10-31 (version 0.1.0).

**Data checked on 2026-10-30.** Competitor cells come from each provider's official pages, read on that date and summarised in our own words; every cell links to its source. Prices and limits change often — open the source before deciding. SeeDropHost cells link to our docs, which are checked against our code.

Legend: **Not found** = we looked in the official docs and did not find it (it may still exist). **—** = not covered by our research.

## Where SeeDropHost loses today

- **No global CDN of its own.** Your sites are served from your server; put Cloudflare in front.
- **No build from Git**, no deploy on push. You upload files that are already built.
- **Functions are basic and not isolated.** Single-file `exports.handler` or `export default` functions run only when the operator turns them on, and only for a server with a single owner: a function can read the whole server. Even then only the main account's sites run them; customer accounts get a 404 until functions are isolated. No edge, scheduled or background functions.
- **No hosted plan you can sign up for yet**: plans and prices are on the [pricing page](/pricing/), but the hosted service opens only with the first public server. Accounts, plan limits and billing by Pix and boleto already exist in the code.
- **No public status page or uptime history** yet.
- **Young project**: version 0.1.0, accounts have several labelled tokens but no people or roles, no external security audit, little adoption.

## Publishing and price

| Free plan | 3 sites, 30 GB/month (soft limit), 100 leads/month.

| When the free limit runs out | In the code: only a warning, never a block; every lead is kept, and creating a site beyond the plan is the one refusal. After a failed payment there are 30 days to pay with everything as it is, and then the site still stays live. [Pricing](/pricing/) | The project stops; unused credits do not roll over.

## When to choose another service

- **You want a hosted service today, with a free plan:** Cloudflare (unlimited static asset requests), GitHub Pages (public repositories; not for sales or SaaS), Netlify (300 credits per month) or Vercel Hobby (non-commercial use only).
- **You share a server with other people and need functions:** functions here are not isolated. Use Netlify, Vercel, Cloudflare or Render.
- **Next.js or anything that needs a build and server code:** Vercel, Netlify, Cloudflare or Render.
- **A global edge network with presence in Brazil without running a server:** Cloudflare or Vercel.
- **Your docs or project site already live in a GitHub repository:** GitHub Pages.

## When SeeDropHost fits

- The site is already built (HTML, a zip, a folder) and you want it on **your own server**, with HTTPS and backups you control.
- An **AI agent** publishes for you and you want every agent deploy to wait as a draft for a human to approve.
- You are leaving a host and want to **prove, page by page,** that SEO and forms survive before switching DNS.
- You need forms with a lead inbox, `_redirects` / `_headers` / `netlify.toml` compatibility and an audit log of who changed what.
