AI made building software cheap. Hosting it and finding users didn't get cheaper. Zenith is the other side of that line: turn any software into SaaS in minutes. We host it, run billing, bring the users, and split the revenue with you. You ship, you get paid.
Hey Product Hunt!
AI has collapsed the cost of building software. It hasn't collapsed the cost of hosting it or finding people to pay for it. That's the line AI can't cross, and it's where most projects die: great software, no infrastructure, no users, no revenue.
Zenith Hosting is the other side of that line. You bring software, we turn it into a managed SaaS in minutes. We run the hosting, the billing, the scaling and the certs, send you customers, and split the revenue with you. You ship, you get paid.
How I know people want this: I shipped one niche open source project, ZenithProxy, and got thousands of users plus a flood of messages from people who couldn't run it themselves and were offering real money to host it for them. I built Zenith Hosting around that one app and they paid immediately. If one project does that, the question writes itself: what about the millions of others?
We want to be to SaaS what Steam is to games and Shopify is to online stores. It works end to end today and we're onboarding more software every week.
Built something you wish you could run as a hosted product? Tell us. That's exactly what we're here for.

@jmitchell88 The ZenithProxy origin story is compelling—that's real validation you can't manufacture. The revenue split model flips the usual indie developer problem on its head, since most people fail on distribution, not product. Curious how you're thinking about quality control as you scale to thousands of projects, since the hosted experience will make or break trust in the platform.

What kinds of apps are easiest to onboard right now, like APIs, desktop tools, or web apps?
@thamibenjelloun Sweet spot right now is anything that runs as a Docker container and serves over HTTP, so web apps and backend services. If it's got a docker-compose file, onboarding is usually quick, databases and storage included.
APIs are easy too since they're just containers. Native desktop tools are the one thing that doesn't really fit (no GUI to serve).
What are you trying to run?
Hi Product Hunt! Great to be working with the team at ZH solving real problems affecting real users, open source devs alike. I've been doing open source for a while and I've seen time and time again the clear gap between end users and developers, marketing and monetisation. We're here to uplift OSS!
glad to be on the team! As someone who finds vulnerabilities on OSS and develops software as well, I'm glad I can contribute to the team on something I have genuine passion for!
