HostingGuru
Deploy Pythonin minutes.
Push your Python application to GitHub and HostingGuru takes care of the rest. We detect your dependencies from requirements.txt or pyproject.toml, install them in an isolated environment, and get your app running — no server provisioning or virtualenv headaches.
Steps
1. Connect your GitHub
Sign up and install the HostingGuru GitHub App. We'll list all your repositories — pick the one with your Python project.
2. We detect Python
HostingGuru looks for requirements.txt, pyproject.toml, or Pipfile in your repository root. We identify the Python version from a runtime.txt or .python-version file if present, defaulting to the latest stable release. Dependencies are resolved and installed automatically, including system-level packages for common libraries like Pillow or psycopg2.
3. Your app is live
Your Python application starts with the correct entry point — whether that's a web server, a background worker, or a script. If we detect a WSGI or ASGI framework, Gunicorn or Uvicorn is configured automatically. Environment variables are injected securely, and your app gets a live HTTPS URL within minutes.
Python deployment, the way it should work
WSGI and ASGI auto-detected
Drop in Flask, Django, FastAPI, Starlette, Sanic, or Tornado — HostingGuru detects the framework, picks the right server (Gunicorn for WSGI, Uvicorn for ASGI), and tunes worker counts to the RAM you've provisioned. No Procfile, no gunicorn.conf.py.
Native extensions just compile
psycopg2, Pillow, numpy, cryptography, lxml — anything that needs a C compiler, system headers, or libpq is built in a sandbox with the libraries already in place. No more cryptic error: Microsoft Visual C++ 14.0 is required-style failures from clean installs.
Background workers and Celery
Long-running jobs don't belong in your web process. Add a worker service that runs celery -A app worker against the same Redis or RabbitMQ broker — same deploy, same env vars, separate process. Beat scheduler too, if you need it.
Python version pinned the way you ask
We respect runtime.txt, .python-version, pyproject.toml [requires-python], and Pipfile in that order. If none of those exist we default to the latest stable CPython. Pin once, deploy reproducibly forever.
Secrets that survive a rotation
DATABASE_URL, SECRET_KEY, OAuth credentials and API tokens are encrypted at rest with AES-256-GCM and injected into the runtime as env vars. Rotate one secret without rebuilding — the next request picks it up.
Free tier doesn't cold-start
Your Flask demo doesn't sleep when the stakeholder finally clicks the link 20 minutes into a meeting. The Starter plan keeps one Python service running 24/7 — including request-time latency that doesn't include a 6-second wake-up.

Key facts and common questions
Python hosting on HostingGuru is a managed Platform-as-a-Service that builds and runs your Python application directly from a GitHub repository, without you operating servers, container registries, or build pipelines.
What is the fastest way to deploy a Python app on HostingGuru?
Install the HostingGuru GitHub App on the repository, pick the branch, and click Deploy. HostingGuru detects requirements.txt, pyproject.toml, or Pipfile, installs dependencies, and starts your app with the WSGI/ASGI server it finds (Gunicorn, Uvicorn, Hypercorn). The first deploy of a standard Python project finishes in about 2–4 minutes.
How long does a Python deployment take on HostingGuru?
A vanilla FastAPI app deploys in about 90 seconds. A Django project with collected static assets typically takes 2–3 minutes. Python wheels are cached between deploys to keep build times short.
Which Python versions does HostingGuru support?
HostingGuru supports Python 3.10, 3.11, 3.12, and 3.13. The version is read from .python-version, runtime.txt, or the python_requires/requires-python field in your project file.
How much does it cost to deploy a Python app on HostingGuru?
The Starter plan is free for one always-on Python service. Hobby is $19/month for 3 services on shared infrastructure. Pro is $35/month for 10 services on a dedicated CX22 server. See pricing for the full plan matrix.
