| Free tier | Quoted: 'Waifly's free plan gives 300 MB of RAM, 1 GB of storage, one server and one MySQL database for €0 permanently, with CPU capped at 30% and no credit card required.' unit none; metered on none |
|---|---|
| Price | none stated |
| Per-object cap | quoted: '1 server, 1 MySQL database' on the free plan. An extra server slot costs EUR 1 a month, which is a paid add-on rather than a free cap. |
| Retention | Quoted: 'A server's status is checked daily; it gets suspended after 3 days offline.' A suspended server created less than 7 days earlier 'is deleted after 3 days'; an older one is kept '15 days' and recoverable from backups.waifly.com. An automated inspection runs every 30 minutes. So the machine persists indefinitely while it keeps running, and dies 3 days after it stops. |
| Egress | not published: no traffic allowance appears on the pricing page, the rules page or the documentation index read today |
| Identity | email no card: quoted 'No payment method is requested for the free plan'. Signup is a username of at least 4 alphanumeric characters, an email, a password of at least 6 characters, a 'how did you find us' field and acceptance of the terms; Discord, Google or Apple login are alternatives. No phone and no document. |
| Limits | |
| Binding | volume-quota 300 MB of RAM with a 30 per cent CPU cap binds first: the anti-abuse rules also forbid tunnels and proxies on the free plan, so the machine cannot be repurposed as a relay when the application outgrows the memory. |
| Interface | sftp, rest a Pterodactyl panel with a live console, file manager, SFTP, databases, scheduled tasks and backups; the docs state 'there is no root access or SSH shell' |
| Tooling | the Pterodactyl panel or SFTP; no SSH |
| Composes with | A small always-on application process on a French host: a cron-driven fetch job, a bot, or a tiny API. |
| Reliability | The operator publishes 99.9 per cent measured uptime over 30 days on status.waifly.com |
| Notes | A French host with two named Paris nodes, a documented anti-abuse rule that is unusually explicit about its own suspension clock, and a free plan that needs no card. The founder is named in the documentation (Aubin Devogelaere, 'founder of Waifly') but no company registration number was found on any page read, so the entity is a named individual rather than a company. The one thing that would change the verdict is an egress number, which is not published. |
| Evidence rung | documented Shape, price, the no-card statement and the suspension clock are quoted from the vendor's own documentation read today. Egress is not published, so the row is documented about the allocation and unverified about bandwidth. |
