Ephemeral

A fresh environment
for every pull request.

Stop fighting over shared staging. Kapten spins up full-stack preview environments per PR and tears them down on merge. Automatically.

The problem

Shared staging is a bottleneck.

Queue to deploy

One staging environment for the whole team means developers wait in line. Features pile up, and merge conflicts multiply.

Testing on prod is dangerous

When staging is broken or occupied, some developers start testing directly in production. One bad deploy and your users pay the price.

Stale environments

Staging drifts from production over time. Tests pass in staging, features break in prod. Nobody trusts the environment anymore.

The Kapten way

Every PR gets its own world.

Open a pull request, get a full-stack environment with your app, databases, and services. Merge the PR and it all disappears. Zero waste.

1

Developer opens a PR

Push your branch and open a pull request. Kapten detects the event via your Git provider webhook.

2

Full environment spins up

App, database, dependencies, and services deployed in an isolated namespace. Database seeded with test data automatically.

3

Share and review

A unique URL is posted back to the PR. Product, design, and QA can test the feature immediately -- no setup needed.

4

Merge and clean up

PR gets merged, the environment is destroyed. No orphaned resources, no lingering costs.

Features

Preview environments done right.

Auto-provisioned

Environments spin up the moment a PR is opened. No manual triggers, no Slack requests, no waiting.

Auto-destroyed

Merge or close the PR and the environment is torn down. No orphaned resources eating your cloud bill.

Database seeding

Each environment gets a fresh database pre-populated with seed data. Test with realistic data from the start.

Cost-efficient

Environments only exist while the PR is open. Pay for what you use, not for idle staging servers running 24/7.

Every PR deserves its own environment.

No more staging queues. No more "it works on my machine." Just ship.
